Customer Reviews

Great projector but,
You MUST keep the lamp filters clean. The first one, (factory install) lasted only 750 hours. I suspect it was because of the dust build up and over heating, (never did). When I replaced the lamp, the dust filters were clogged and probably contributed to the short life of the lamp.
Also note, when you power down the projector, (using the remote) the cooling fan continues to run. To have it completley shut down you have to manually turn orr the power switch on the projector.

Can use even if bulb burst.
A previous review warned not to use this if bulb burst. This is not correct. I waited to install this second bulb before writing this (this is the second one to burst due to the over 3000 hours used). I removed the old burst bulb and saw that the damage was contained within the bulb housing. Just to insure the best image, I carefully cleaned the color wheel with a damp qtip and rotated it to get it clean. The new bulb works good as new. My x1 projector image has never looked better. If you have any doubts it seems that the bulb can be returned as per amazon's return policy. By the way, I got my bulb from Amazon in 3 days with free shipping.

here is the real news
this is a sub-thousand projector. bottom line i have had one for four years and burned 2000 hours on it. Are there better projectors -- yes, but for the money, this one gets 5 stars. you need to clean the filter every 300 hours, this takes 4 minutes. just take the bulb out and get the dust off of the screen. this is very important because bulb life is depenent on keeping it cool. i have been very impressed with this unit and with the picture quality. if you look at the pic for the unit you can see the screen on the side. its like a lint collector on a clothes dryer. just open it up every 300 hours (4 months) and clean scrape off the lint. im going to do mine right now.
