330w is quite a lot for a projector, i assume thats a high pressure mercury lamp one?
I recently switched to a laser one and the picture is still as bright but the power consumption is down by over 50%.
Also after 2 times geting my face blasted by mercury vapors when the lamp exploded in the old one…i aint risking losing even more brain cells…there is a good reason the stopped selling those in the eu now
Yes, it’s an older model that still uses those old lamps. I will probably switch over to a laser projector when it gives up the ghost, but so far, it works well.
Thankfully, I never had a lamp explode on me. That sounds absolutely terrifying.
Yeah on those projectors usually the lamp is what dies first, everything else in em could run for decades, i would advise on selling it while it still works to cover a bit of the price of a laser.
That sounds absolutely terrifying.
Yeah even thinking of it brings back that metallic taste in my mouth >.<
Same here, but I run a projector and watch movies and play games on one wall of my room. The bulb sucks 330 watts to project that large of an image.
I love being an irresponsible adult so much sometimes. :D
