How many hours do most projector bulbs normally last?




HoofHearte


I have an Epson Movie Mate projector.


Answer
It varies by projector, but I've never had one last less than 2500 and that INCLUDES my Epson. You can find more informaiton here. Just look at the spec of any projector and it will tell you the lamp life. However, that can be improved drastically by using the proper shut down procedures.

what is the average life time of the light bulb for the DLP tv? (The rear projector tv)?

I like to buy a DLP TV, but I wonder how often that I have to change the bulb and what is the cost?


Answer
Different models of DLP projectors use different light bulbs. Your TV's user manual should give you an estimate of bulb life (usually 2000-5000hrs). However, that is an estimate and not a guarantee. Some bulbs may fail sooner. More likely, you will find that the bulb dims with time, and the real end of life comes when you think that the picture has lost too much brightness. My DLP projector claims a bulb life of 2000 hrs (it is an old model--newer units have longer life). Howver, by the time it reached 1200hrs the brightness had dimmed considerably, and I replaced the bulb.

Note: all projectors (DLP or LCD) use similar bulbs, and all have limited life and are replaceable.
