Amazon was by far the best place to get this bulb. I found it a couple dollars cheaper at other sites but they just don't have as good of a reputation as Amazon does plus they charged for shipping. When you factor in the free shipping when using Super Saver Shipping Amazon was the best price around. It arrived quickly and was properly packaged. I would buy this bulb from Amazon again.

I was very surprised to be purchasing my third bulb for the Optoma HD72 projector in two years of relative moderate use (definitely below the rated hours). I got one extra with the original projector purchase on a packager deal, and when I the second one indicated it was nearing end-of-life I had a difficult decision whether to dump another couple hundred into a 1080i projector replacement bulb or to upgrade the projector. In the end it looked like prices on 1080p projectors with similar throw/picture size characteristics would like come down over the next year or so by the same amount or more for the cost of the bulb. I won't be buying a fourth bulb, I'll be upgrading the projector, and Optoma won't be my first choice. Installation was fairly straightforward, but a bit involved (required removing projector from the universal projector mount). Connections seemed robust and secure.

I bought this for a backup bulb and this was the best price I could find.
