I HAVE HAD THE SHRP XR20X PROJECTOR FOR LESS THAN A YEAR, I HAVE RUN IT ONLY IN ECONOMY LOW LAMP MODE IN ORDER TO MAKE THE LAMP LAST LONGER.

WELL AFTER 9 MONTHS OF LITE USE THE LAMP HAD 80% OF IT'S LIFE LEFT THAN IT DIED, "DEAD DEAD DEAD" MAN I AM PSST OFF $400.00 BUCKS IM OUT.
THAT LAMP SHOULD HAVE A FIVE YEAR WARRANTY.

I KEPT THE PROJECTOR CLEAN BUT BEWARE SHARP DID NOT PROVIDE ANY AIR FILTRATION FOR THIS PROJECTOR OR LAMP, AND IT PRODUCES A LOT OF HEAT AND THERE IS NO USER ACCESS TO PREVENT DUST BUILD UP, MY PROJECTOR HAD A MODERATE AMOUNT OF DUST ON THE FAN BLADES AND INNER DUCTING BUT ANY DUST IS ALSO PUMPED RIGHT TO THIS LITTLE 3/4" SQUARE SCREEN ON THE LAMP SO WITH NO FILTRATION OR USER EASY ACCESS THIS UNIT IS SURE TO FAIL WAY BEFORE IT'S USEFULL LIFE SPAN. THE PROJECTOR WAS A THOUSAND DOLLAR'S AND THE NEW LAMP WILL COST $300-400 BUCK'S SHARP SHOULD PAY ME OR AT LEAST TAKE THAT BONUS AWAY FROM THEIR ENGINEER'S
NOT HAPPY WITH SHARP
P LUEPKE

Maybe i've been lucky but we use our Sharp projector every day for normal television and the bulbs i've been buying are lasting at least 2500hrs. We set the fans to high because it is up in the ceiling. No there is not filtration for dust, but you find the filters cause overheating on other projectors. Now you can just buy the bulb (which we do) for like $100 and Sharp made it so easy to replace (unlike those others who make "special" lamps)I figured they did a pretty good design. Can't beat the 3000 lumens we watch TV in the daytime easy!

We purchased the SHARP XR-20S DLP Projector TV. The bulb fails early on even with using a ventilated shelf in a climate controlled air purified room. The Projector was $1000. which is fine for the enjoyment it creates, but the after market cost of the bulb for continued use makes it a rip off.
