I bought some 5-6 bulbs for my projector, but they seem to go out very quickly. I am wondering if my projector is at fault or if the bulbs I bought were just bad.

Any source for good quality optical bulbs?

Thanks

I have two 16-CL projectors which I have had for five years.
I am still using the lamps which were in them when I bought them.
However, I always use the LOW lamp setting.

If you mean the G27 Exciter lamp, here is a link to Paul Poster's site on eBay.
