Amazon page says "LED light source lasts for the life of the product" but specs say 6000 hrs, ordinary HPD lamp. What???

This isn't an LED Light Source machine.... it is Single 0.65" DC3 DMD DLP® Technology by Texas Instruments system. I just bought this unit as it is 1080p vs my Optoma HD66 which was 720p. You would have to watch a lot of TV 2 put 6000 hrs on one of these. I plan on replacing mine around 4000 hrs. if I ever needed to. I would recommend this to all my friends, it is a great projector for the money.

The projector isn't LED it uses a BL-FU190E lamp. Which has a 6000 hour life. If you do a search on Google you'll see you can buy this lamp assembly for $150 - $180. Still about the most economical lamp in the 2000 - 2500 lumen range.

Theoretically it should last forever, however depends upon the quality of the LED's themselves. The Apollo arrived with one light half out already rofl!

I don't know as I only use it for 1.5 hours at a time and I never really checked but I am sure you could get 4 hours or so all I can say is that this light is super bright and I sell led lighting for a living.Solid in the hand and overall impressed with the quality...

Dear Customer, If this LED lamp is fully charged, it will last 7-10 hours. Please be noted.

Does not appear to be replaceable very easily. But this shouldn't be a problem because when I look at other LED lamp descriptions on the Net, the ones that give a lifetime spec generally say they're rated for 20,000-50,000 hours of usage.

I did not own it long enough to needing replacement bulb. LED lamp last long. Similar product claimed bulb life of either 12,000 or 20,000 hours. I guess it will not need replacement.

That depends on which bulb burns out. But an LED bulb lasts thousands of hours.

It's based on 3/hrs of day of use, which is 1,095 hours/year, or about 22.83 years. As with any product, using it more or less frequently will extend/reduce the life.In my own case, I've used three of these for more than 3 hours a day for 2.5 years or so, and have not had any issues so far.Also, the lifetime quoted assumes you follow the directions (i.e., don't install this in a *fully* enclosed fixture as the heat buildup will rapidly degrade the LED).

The average LED light lasts between 25,000-50,000 hours. In figuring this, if you use the lamp for an hour a day, every day, the bulbs will last over 68 years. There is also a 1 year warranty that comes with the lamp. If you would like to email the company, the address is: info@spheregadget.com and a representative will contact you within 24 hours, according to the site. PS...I Love mine!!

You cannot! When the unit fails, you toss it. These are disposable like printers. It does not pay to fix them. The lamp is all sealed, nothing to service. The reasoning behind this is that LED's last a few thousand hours and should give you about 3-5 years of service with normal use.

According to the website, this is the response posted, "LED lights are medical grade and each treatment panel should last up to 50,000 hours of use."

The light source is not a bulb; it is an LED which is permanently wired in. Keep in mind, LED's are Solid State devices which means they can have a lifetime of over 50,000 hours. That would give you over 27 years if you used it 5 hours per day. In my opinion, there is no need to make it replaceable because that would just create another place for it to fail. Because it's a Solid State device, if an LED ever does cease giving its light, it's usually something other than the actual LED, i.e. the power supply or the connections. If this desk lamp ever fails, it won't be at the LED.

It uses an LED lamp, so it should last upwards of 50,000 hours. You probably won't ever have to replace it; at 4 hours of use every day it will last you over 30 years.

Yeah. We are referring to the typo on the UK LGE spec page that incorrectly states 3000 hours. We know lamp life is 30,000.

I'm not sure. The lamp is rated 4000 hours, 5000 hours in Eco-Mode. Maybe your not opperating in Eco-Mode?

I believe the LED is built in rather than a replaceable lamp. It is supposed to last for 30,000 hours so if it is not working the projector is broken and needs to be repaired.

Another spot on Amazon site specifies these are rated to last 70+ hours. Just last week I got a Restoration Hardware catalog and saw LED candles - the cheapest was $19/EA but they specify the candles last as long as 1,000 hours. Had there been better information at Amazon site at the time of purchase I would of not bought these HOWEVER I do have a supply of Eneloop SANYO rechargeable batteries here at the house so will just bite it. Technology has made great leaps in LED lighting in the last couple of years there is much better alternatives.
