After 2878 hours of use, I have finally replaced my projector bulb. I had been dreading the ~$300 cost, but also looking forward to the improvement in brightness. And what an improvement it is! I knew that the picture was dimmer, but it was impossible to guess just how much dimmer it was. I’m happy to report that the “Wow” factor is back. The image is so bright now that I’m reminded that I need to paint the walls and ceilings a darker color.
A bonus is that since I had the projector down to install the new bulb, I took the opportunity to get a good photo of the ceiling mount. In this picture, you can get a better idea of how the thing works. You can clearly see how the flange attaches to the plexiglass, and you can see the 3 holes where the projector gets bolted to the plexiglass.
