Sklamp SP.8VH01GC01 Replacement Projector Bare Bulb For OPTOMA HD141X GT1080 HD26 Projectors

Bulb is bright as the original and seems to be constructed the same way minutes the markings in the back and as other reviewers have mentioned there is a bit of the high pitch whine it makes at times but it's nothing that doesn't get drowned out with the audio and for something that gets the projector working for less than half the cost of oem its not a big deal. My bulb exploded inside so I ordered this to replace. I had to first remove entire cover and shake out and blow out all glass and luckly nothing else got damaged. I realized now with the new bulb how bad my picture was getting as my old bulb was going bad. Anytime there was to be a dark scene I wouldn't be able to see anything at all and now I can.

I got 12,000+ hours on my original bulb on my Optoma GT1080 Darby. Hopefully, I get the same out of this oneSo far, I'm impressed with everything about this bulb. I highly recommend.Will update if bulb fails early.UPDATE: The bulb lasted a year, almost to the day, with 24/7 run time. That's over 8,500 hours of run time. Just bought a second bulb to replace the one I ordered. Will order again when this one fails.

Got about 9 months use out of the first one or 734 hours to be exact and that was in Eco mode. The second one I was able to stretch to 1041 hours in Eco mode but at EOL (End Of Life) it was super dim and hard to see much even in a completely darkened room. So, I am now on my third lamp from this company! They say 3rd time is a charm so let's see if I can get somewhat closer to the claimed "Lamp life: 3000 (normal) / 4000(economy) hours"

I just received the bulb, fast shipping and very very well packaged. A lot of bubble wrap and foam. Bulb looks brand new, fit perfectly into the Optoma HD141 housing. Easy install. The bulb is just as bright as the original bulb. Ill give an update whenever the bulb burns out, hopefully in a few thousand hours, lol.

Purchased in May, dead by August. Other bulb laster for *years* with the same usage patterns. A few weeks ago we started to notice the colors would dim while watching, kinda with a purple hue. Wasn't unbearable.....but then it died completely.So.....would not recommend, unless you only need a bulb for a short period of time.
