Could this be a risky favour I am trying to offer them?  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 06-10-2019 08:09 AM                        Just in case there is something wrong with the SPG or LPSUs in his projector that could be damaging bulbs and/or the lamp info module, I'd suggest that you let him try his lamphouse in your projector, but not the other way round. If it strikes OK, then the problem is definitely in his projector. If it doesn't, then he likely has a bad bulb (unless there is a visibly obvious problem with the lamphouse, e.g. corroded contacts or a heat damaged flylead), plus he could have a problem in his projector that has damaged it.  |  IP: Logged
