32-EX Phantom I I
New type Headlamps.

We should like to have your opinion of the performance of the headlamp which you fitted with a stronger reflector spring. Does the 20 oz. load prevent the dithering of the reflector? Also, is the pull of the solenoid sufficiently strong to overcome the extra tension?
