There was nobody who would sell one in Ireland and the English companies wanted €400+ for a bulb (yes, projector bulbs are expensive!!). I wouldn't be afraid to buy spare parts from the USA, provided you buy from a reputable source. This doesn't include eBay in my opinion. I got the bulb from www.projectorking.com.

If you have any questions reply here & I'll do my best to answer them.
Hi cianer, many thanks for your reply and apologies for not replying sooner but other things got in the way and the projector not top of the list, for me anyway.... himself might say different! Don't know if it is the bulb or not that's gone; there's just a light on and no picture. We know absolutely zilch about it. Is it the bulb that generally goes and what is the life of the bulb?
