DENON DP 80 strobe lamp replacement

Greetings to all. New member. I searched for this info in the forums but could not find a reference. Does anyone know a source for the strobe lamp on the DP 80 turntable? Any advice or info would be much appreciated.

30ish years later not sure parts would still be available....have you looked at the service manual at vinylengine.com ? File is too large to attach here....

This is now a problem, because of the advent of LED bulbs. LEDs will not work as a strobe light as they are powered from a power supply and not the AC directly.

I have the same problem with my Thorens TD 125 II.

There are two solutions.

The best is to use a strobe disc and get a fluorescent work lamp, and just set the speed when you need to.

The other is to load the RPM AP on your cell phone.
