Hi guymark!
your lamp is 200w SHP, made in Phoenix, DC lamp.
you can get my 180w SHP, but about 1000-2000hrs.
or JYS/DC, not so bright, but.cheaper.

Hi Mclorkus!
I have sent mail to you

Default Bulb

Please can you tell me how I can order from you - I tried to PM you but I am still not alowed to contact folks directly yet - so would you please pop ME an email - exmark@lineisp.com

180w instead of 200w doesn't seem so bad to me - and on the basis that the last bulb didn't last anywhere near its rated life, I would guess if I work on the basis that the new one will onyly last half rated life - but operate in full mode instead of economy, I guess the brightness will still be perfectly adequate for my needs

Very many thanks for your input - and please pop me a note telling me the price / how to pay etc.

Mark

Hi !!

I bought last week a NEC LT81 DLP projector with a lamp with 1100 hours (It's a 280-watt metal halide lamp with an air filter. NEC guarantees the lamp for 1000 hours or 6 months.)

According the replacement pdf file, the new one I need is a JYs275/A.C.

Good news ... I now know witch bulb I have to buy ...

BUT when I have a better look to the replacement pdf file, I also read

NEC LT100 --> JYs275/D.C. !!

It is very strange because, it is exactly the same lamp in the NEC LT100 and the NEC LT81 !!
( as here for example )


So do I need a DC or a AC bulb for my LT81 ??

Thanks in advance and let me know if you need more info.

(sorry for my poor english, I'm french ...)

Default I need a new projector bulb...

ywh,

Hello the bulb on my NEC LT260 projector is getting towards the end of it's usable life.

Are there replacement bulbs available for relamping?

The correct replacement bulb is a 220W NSH part number LT60LPK.

The only replacement bulb I can find is a 180W SHP type but I understand this will not work? Is there some sort of other bulb that will work?

Thanks for your help as this is all very confusing.

Hello, thank you for the helpful info so far – and I would like to order a couple of bulbs for the Infocus projector please – on the basis that I then have a spare for next time.

I did go to the website - but as I was wanting to ask a final question - and also wondered if I needed to add anything extra for internation carriage I am still stuck.

Incidentally, the bulb did have a single wrap of wire going around it – as reading your FAQ, that seems to be important.

I am in the UK, so I am guessing I need to add something to the Cart to increase the amount charged for carriage. Please can you tell me how much extra to add for bunging it over the puddle for me.

You mentioned I needed the 180w SHP, or the JYS/DC, I am a little confused as you seem to sell the 200w rated one, but seem to suggest I should get the 180w. I am more than happy to bow to your knowledge but I am intrigued as to why it is best to get the 180w instead of the 200w unit

As I said, I would like to buy two bulbs please, I would like to buy both the 180W SHP and also the JYS/DC – I will then install the dearer one and keep the cheaper one for a spare.

Please let me know how much extra to send you for P&P for two bulbs to the UK – and also how I go about adding that amount at the checkout. If you really do not like sending to the UK, I am prepared to order two additional bulbs for another projector (family members) which will need a bulb sooner or later if it helps to make it worth your while to help me out. This projector is an Optoma EP 739 DLP using a 200W SHP lamp.


Very many thanks.


Kind Regards

Mark


PS: something that *may* be of interest to folks is that if the reflector has a little of the silvering missing (I think usually aluminium these days), then you CAN re-silver them. Although silver can tarnish, pure silver does not tarnish as much - and placing a small bit of white "chalk" in the housing can help prevent tarnishing too.

If anyone is interested in the DIY re-silvering of glass let me know and I will post the "recipe" on here. It isn't difficult, though it isn't cheap. Silver nitrate is also toxic, so usuall handling precautions would need to apply.

In my case, there is only a small amount missing so rather than silver the entire bulb, I am just going to use the solution at the very bottom where a little of the original has flaked off.

Hi meck11
uhp 180w is OK, you need jyd/ac 200w.

Hi MattMarttigan
it is a 280-watt metal halide DC lamp , the replacement pdf file is not right.

Hi classicradio
180W SHP is not best choose, JYS/DC is best.

Hi guymark
180W SHP is best if you turn on economical model of lamp.
it is not cheaper, $100, each, include shipping and cement.
