LP97 Replacement Projector Lamp Bulb for ELPLP97 Epson Powerlite Home Cinema 2200 2250 1080 880 VS260 EX9230 EX9240 EX3280 EX5280 EX7280 X49 W49 982W E20 U50 V13H010L97 Projectors

I purchased this lamp Nov. 8, 2024. It died February 10th, 2025. I read a few reviews about this lamp only lasting a month or two but thought that was most likely not the case. Turns out I got one that only lasts three months and about 100 hours of use.***Update: The company reached out to me after hearing about my struggles with the lamp only lasting about 100 hours. They apologized for the difficulties and offered me a full refund or replacement. I was not expecting a response like this so I already replaced the lamp, now they are giving me a full refund even though I'm about two months outside the Amazon return policy. It is great to see customer service of this level and see the company stand behind their products. I will be purchasing my next lamp from them knowing they stand behind their products.

This was my second purchase of this lamp. I initially purchased one in March of 2024. I let it sit on my shelf until August 27, 2024 before I replaced the original lamp in my Epson 2150. The OEM lamp had 8,200+ hours according to the projector information screen. I reset the counter when I installed the lamp. 536 hours later it stopped working. No pop or error lights. It just stopped. It was way out of warranty so I figured I’d just gotten a bad one and ordered another in late November. It arrived and I installed it immediately not wanting to miss out on the return window if there were problems. 53 hours later… POP! It blew out. I returned it for a refund.I went to Epson’s website and ordered an ELPLP97 as the ELPLP96 was discontinued for a LOT less $$ than this lamp. I see lots of people giving good reviews but two failures back to back are unacceptable.

Had to replace another previous ordered 3d party bulb which was overheating only a few hours after installation (10 hours only). I subsequently ordered this EWO product because of the good reviews and the reputation EWO has. This EWO bulb is designed to replace the Epson ELPLP78 bulb for the Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 2030 projector. So far, this bulb is operating normally and the quality of the projection is good. Nice bright, clear colors (see my photo) and no overheating. While the price is less than the $100+ Epson bulbs and some of the other generic brands... the quality of picture is just as good if not better as the original bulb that came with the projector. Bulb life is yet to be determined but even if it only last 75% of the original bulb, it is worth the cost.

- *Perfect fit*: This replacement lamp fits my Epson projector perfectly, and installation was a breeze.- *Bright and clear*: The image quality is excellent, with vibrant colors and crisp clarity.- *Long-lasting*: The lamp life is impressive, and I've had no issues with it burning out prematurely.- *Cost-effective*: This replacement lamp is significantly cheaper than the original Epson lamp, without sacrificing quality.- *Wide compatibility*: It's compatible with a range of Epson projector models, making it a great option for those with older or newer devices.Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this replacement projector lamp. It's a fantastic value for the price, and I'd highly recommend it to anyone.

Origianlly this projector lamp only lasted a couple months before it burnt out. I was able to get in contact with their support relatively quickly and they are sending me a replacement bulb. I am hoping the new bulb wont have the same problems!

Great lamp and even greater customer service. If you need projector lamps this company's got ya covered!

First lamp lasted years, bought this one and maybe 4 months, on a bedroom tv that gets used in the evenings for just a little bit of time.. so really hardly used… was bright and looked great the day we got it, then, noticed wasn’t as bright and without warning… poof… no longer turns on. So annoying.

Great customer service! The bulb I ordered was defective and blew out within 3 days. The company has offered a replacement bulb with a 3 month warranty. Customer service like this is hard to find these days. If a company is willing to stand behind their products and make things right, then they absolutely deserve 5 stars.
