I routinely do enlargements up at the 15X and 16X end of the column (probably 20" by 24", though I'm printing on 8" by 10" paper, cropped), and have yet to have an exposure over 45 seconds. Either your bulb is bad, your transformer is shot (you might not be getting sufficient voltage to generate 75W of light output), or you're a fancier of DARK negatives!
