Are you replacing with original lamps, from the projector manufacturer?
I've used lamps with packaging that looks identical, including the manufacturer name on the packaging, but based on price, I knew they weren't produced by the projector manufacturer. I would usually get about 1/4 of the rated life out of such lamps.
In my past experience, the only lamps I could count on, were direct from reputable sources, supplying direct from the manufacturer.
+1.
My ex had one of my old projectors... it sat on top of a book case at opposite wall. She kept popping lamps, and
Id always replace time (my treat)... I couldn't figure out why, but then one night I stopped by, and she had the projector on, and the G*DDAMN cat was sleeping next ot it for the warmth blocking the air intake!
