InFocus Replacement Lamp

Original replacement lamp for the Infocus X2 projectors. It is always good to keep a spare lamp on-hand because you never know when you will need it until you turn on the projector. You might be preparing your quarterly presentation in the executive boardroom, warming up for a sales pitch for your most important customer, or sitting down to watch a film with your family. Suddenly the excitement of being prepared is interrupted by the realization that the lamp in your projector is just a little too old, or maybe it took too big of a bump during your travel. If you have a spare lamp, you can change it immediately. If not, you imagine yourself on a long stretch of road in the middle of the desert with a flat tire, 50 miles to the next gas station and no spare in the trunk. What will you do?

  Overall Evaluation: do not buy this lamp without an extended warranty. I have already gone through 3 of these lamps in one year. the infocus projector is not worth the money due to the high cost and frequency of replacing lamps

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Lamps have lasted quite awhile for me. I read the manuel and it clearly states that you have to clean the filters every 200 hours. Also the lamp life depends on what inviroment you are in.

  Weaknesses:Lamps tend to go out faster in a smoking inviroment or in one where grease or lots of dust and even cat hairs exist.

  Overall Evaluation: You also need to understand that the 3000 hours is a guideline. of the 1000 lamps tested 50% or more reached 3000 hours. ive seen some last 4500 hours. ive seen some last 900 hours. but usually i pull the lamp out and its coated with dust. Look at them the same way you would a light in your house. sometimes that light bulb can last 3 -10 years and sometimes 4 months..

  Strengths:

  Weaknesses:

  Overall Evaluation: Note that the 3000 hour lamp time is specified at optimum operating conditions(stable physical environment, no variance in current supplied, room temperature and humidity). Also remember that the only way to reach the 3000 hour point is to set the light output to half via the menu settings. At full power, the projector runs louder, hotter, and degrades the life of the lamp more quickly.
