Hi: Have just "won" above Projector on eBay.

(1) Projector Manual: I would appreciate it if anyone could provide a pdf of the B & H 483Z Autoload Projector Manual?

(2) Projector Lamps: This projector appears to use the DSW 24v 200W lamp - which is expensive and now hard to find. https://www.replacementlightbulbs.com/l ... v200w.html

Thinking of replacing DSW Lamp with a Tveden Module: http://store.tvedenlampmodules.com/BH-p ... 46607.aspx

Please share your experience with these Tveden lamps, if any.

Thanks.

John

I called and talked to George. I selected the plug-in for my BH 471a. Works perfectly. I bought a spare replacement at the same time and received a deal on the shipping. I didn't want to use the kit to drill holes so the extra few bucks for the plug in was perfect for me.

Calvin: Thanks for positive report on Tweden for the BH461. I believe the BH483 uses the DSW plug-in. Can the halogen lamp be replaced on its own (ie without the whole module)??
Notice that the advertised lifetime is shorter for these modules compared to other Tweden items??
