Hey, all.
It's definitely time for me to finally replace the bulb on my Epson 5050UB (after some 4100 hours of use) -- it's actually been barking at me about it (during each startup) for a good while now... though it still seems bright enough for me so far (and should likely serve fine for a temporary backup)...
So I'm looking for a good, affordable *and* reliable source for this (whether off-brand OEM or Epson original). I seem to recall a brief discussion on this, particularly for this Epson series of PJs, but that was some time ago (probably back around when I first bought my 5050UB ~3 years ago)... and I can't seem to locate that thread anymore -- plus that info might possibly be outdated now anyway.
So any (reasonably) up-to-date recommendations, etc (maybe via Amazon for easier returns/replacements in case of issues)?
No doubt there are others likely interested in this as well given the popularity of Epson PJs (even though there's been some migration toward laser)...
TIA for any help on this...
