Hey, i just recently bought a projector. It is the Ezpro 550. I really like it.
The first 2 hours i broke 2 bulbs so i had to wait for another week before i could get more! I am sure you can realise my fustration at the time.
The bulbs i bought are £5.95 EACH!! I bought four and last around 70 hours.
I bought the actual projector off ebay at £155.00. Very good price as i saw one go for £300. It came with everything.
It is not the newest, best projector on the market but i like it and it is great for playin PS2,X-box etc on. Especially watching films, and with the surround sound it is great.

cheap, but great!!
Who else owns a projector and does anyone own the same type?

RE: Projector
70 hours per bulb doesn't sound right maybe that is why it is cheap. We got several at work and they never seem to need changing.

RE: Projector
Yea, the bulb is a halogen, not a metal halide. Metal halide bulbs can be priced for £100s of pounds, but can be used at around 1000 hrs. But for me they are too expensive. You cant argue at £5.99 per bulb though.
I only changed mine because i put them in the wrong way![Razz :P](./images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)
