Araca ET-LAX100 Replacement Projector Lamp with Housing for Panasonic PT-AX200U AX100U AX200E AX200 TH-AX100 AX100E AX100 Projector Lamp

My 10 year old Panasonic PT-AX200U has never produced such a bright image, even when it was new. I hope that this level of brightness holds up for a good one thousand hours or more. The heat output also seems to be lower than other lamps that I've tried, although I haven't actually measured it. All in all, I'm quite pleased.

Installation was easy once I realized where the lamp in my projector was located. The lamp works well. A larger illustration and set of instructions would be helpful, since the lamp can be used as a replacement in several different projector models.

Came with a glove and small screw driver, which I didn’t expect. Packed well, and when installed, it fit perfectly. Appears to have the longest warranty. Original bulb lasted over 12 years and perhaps longer if I reset the “hours used” counter. Let’s see how this goes. It helps to extend bulb life if your projector operates in a cool basement and air filter is cleaned out once in while. If original bulb does not want to slide out, it may be some oxidation in the electrical connector. Grabbing it with a needle nose plier and pulling up gently should dislodge the bulb assuming screws in front loosened before hand.

Ive been thinking about upgrading my projector because... lets be honest, mine is a 'Im moving and too much of a hassle to take with me gift' that I received 8 years ago that my friend already had for at least 6...I got both the projector and the screen, and I'm sooo thankful for it.I'm easily able to notice when the bulb is starting to go, and when it does, I always wonder if I should just upgrade. The price, and size, of projectors are coming down. However I really love this projector, and the ease of replacing the bulb is about 30 minutes (AT MAX)As like any non-OEM it doesn't last any where near as long as the original but you gotta balance what you're willing to pay to keep, with what you're willing to upgrade with.All in all, Ill probably buy one more before my upgrade!

This is a great price point for this type of replacement bulb. Plus Araca has a wonderful 200-day warranty. My bulb actually went out unexpectedly but was still under the 200-day warranty, so when I emailed Araca customer service directly, they sent me a replacement bulb for free within 7 days, which was amazing. I will always buy replacement bulbs from Araca going forward! You should too!

Araca has sent me new lamp without delay. Will wait for the lamp. Same cant be said about the Amazon staff who said so many different things on the chat and diff things on email.

This is the second one we've bought. Other brands simply weren't as bright and did not last as long. Happy with the purchase and great communication with the vendor. Will buy again!

Bought this in December and it’s sayin it already has to be replaced
