In Reply to: RE: I owned the same FP model as yours…. posted by kootenay on June 02, 2009 at 20:41:43
The first failed at less than a 1000 hours (no guarantees), the 2nd started to dim at about 1900 hrs so I went ahead and replaced it; It may still have some "life" as an emergency replacement. I'm at 1700 hours on the third bulb so another decision point is coming soon (new bulb or new FP?).
I think the Sharp automatically cuts out at 2000 hrs; you still have to reset the timer if your bulb hits the 2000 hr mark.
I'm milking the life out of the FP, it's just getting harder to hold off getting a new one. This FP looks so dim (even with light control) in comparison after watching sessions with the Kuro.
Follow Ups:
I saw the same thing after watching the movie in the FP and then watch my plasma upstairs for some sports updates. Definitely, the plasma is brighter in comparison, but what do you expect the Sharp FP only puts out 1200 ANSI Lumens on a high contrast setting. Like you I’ve been thinking the same way of replacing the Sharp, as the matter of fact I’ve auditioned a brand new 1080p FP made by JVC and you know what, the difference between the Sharp and the new JVC wasn’t very much regarding the resolution, although the JVC was brighter overall. I will keep watching it until it dies and then I will have some hard decision to do.
If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing well
(Proverb)
maybe when I've accumulated cash-in-hand for the FP, I'll spring for one. Gotta get a SOTA Blu-ray player as well.
