I just got a bulb for my panasonic projector bulb in the mail today after waiting nearly 3 weeks

I was hesitant about buying one because I heard awefull thing sbut I cranked it up and its just the same as the original manufacturers bulb and it did not cost me no $350 ...... I paid $105 shipped from ebay

I always felt guilty watching stupid crap on the pj because of the bulb life . But not any more . 3000 hrs of video gaming or netlfix and my fav asian cinema movies all for $105 dollars

It comes with a 90 warranty so I feel good about anything going wrong because if it did then it would happen within this time if used for 2 hr per night

    I only watched movies and ps3 on my projector. Regular TV got the plasma/LCD treatment. My first projector I had two years and sold it with 300 hours on it, not alot of use but when I did use it I was very happy.

    You should have kept it

    I love anything on my pj especially online gaming for head shots... I cant tell you how many times I have heard people complementing my sharp shooting skills when I tag some one way far out on fps

    If you want a qem bulb then just type in your model into ebay as the place is absolutely flooded with them right now ... I think my seller was called ping pong yin ? but the point is that everyone is selling these cheap . Just be sure to read the seller feedback and make sure they have a warranty then you cant go wrong . just look for the cheapest one

    I'll probably pick one up as a spare. I'm preparing myself to sell my current JVC RS10 and go for a new model.

    on the subject of home theater projectors, I see many of them for sale. Would you guys personally take a chance on buying a used on on cl? Or is that too risky?
