ELPLP97 Replacement Projector Lamp Bulb for Epson Powerlite Home Cinema 2250 1080 880 EX9240 EX3280 EX5280 E20 U50 EB-W01 W49 W51 X50 X06 982W 992F E01 E10 E20 FH06 FH52 EH-TW710 TW740 TW750

I bought this lamp just for a back up so when everybody is at my house, I’m not stuck with a broken projector when the lamp decides to blow. Before I can put trust in it, I did put this replacement in the projector and did a lighting test. It was the same brightness and worked great so I took it back out and put it in a box for safe keeping. I was a skeptic, because the price was so much lower than the others out there but I would definitely snag this up while it is cheaper than the rest.

The picture quality was great and was an exact fit. Replacement was simple and straightforward. However, 3 months after replacing, not much use compared to its claimed time of use, the bulb went out and no longer works. Very disappointing after my first bulb lasted 3 years of use, I expected this one to last at least a year considering it was much cheaper than the manufacturers.

We use our projector as our main TV. Our bulb lasted for a year. Compared to other products I’ve used, I’ve very happy with this one.

I run a projector in my living room instead of a TV so as you can imagine its running most day for at least 12 hours. If you keep your air filter on the projector clean and give it enough room to vent this bulb lasts me around a year to a year and a half.

The projector displayed a “replace lamp” message the whole time I had it in there. It burned out in just under 6 months.

I just got this brand new and it’s already dead within months of purchase. Stick with the brand name this will not do

What can I say? After one day, it was just gone.

Burnt after 4 uses.
