If I knew I would have to spend $200 every year so I can watch my TV I wouldn't have bought it, NO WAY JVC! I called the OEM this morning and they will only give a 90 day warrenty on the bulb but yet they say the life of the bulb is 4K-6K hours. We watch a lot of TV in the evening but no way are we watching 11-17 hours of TV per day. I just found out by reading these message boards about the bad bulbs, funny they never offer a replacement for those bad bulbs. Good Luck, I'd buy something else next time.

I bought a lamp off of some guy from ebay last year.. failed after 35 days. The guy refused to refund me for a defective or possibly used lamp. Some of those guys sell used lamps that they pull from their tv's as new... Buy from a reputable source! I bought my next one from http://www.discount-merchant.com and it has lasted me 7 months with no problems and my TV is on about 16 hours a day, 7 days a week. I'll never make the untrusted ebay mistake again! I had the same problem James… I bought a lamp off of some guy from ebay last year.. failed after 35 days.

We see this all the time…This is exactly why customers should choose a reputable dealer who is familiar with what they are selling.

We’re not sure of a serial number cut off, but I can confirm all the lamps being sold on http://www.Discount-Merchant.com are of the new revision.

One thing we constantly see:

To avoid having your next lamp implode like this, invest in a ionic air purifier ($50-$100). You can get them at a local Walmart, Bestbuy, etc. These do wonders by attracting dust particles to themselves and away from your TV set!
