Bulbs for most projection tvs, front OR rear, lcd, dlp, doesn't matter it will have a bulb in them that needs to be replaced every 2000 hours or so, or sooner in some cases. Most of which cost anywhere from $130-$600 With a Zenith DLP 53" in a box being the cheapest Ive seen for rear, and most Epson LCD projectors right around that price. But it doesnt matter what the cost is really for 2000 hours isnt all that much, the bulbs put out a crap load of heat, and cost an arm and a leg, where in some cases cost as much or more then the projector itself, its like ink carts for Lexmark and HP printers.
But my beef is, I was just neffing on the internerd and come across THIS.
Looking at the picture they look pretty damn bright, and it got me thinking, if they can make one tiny little led light be that bright, and that white, why cant they make it for projection tv's?? They would outlast the projector, we wont be constrained or have to worry every time we turn out set on "Is this the time my bulb is going to blow?" or "Its been sitting there doing nothing for 15 minutes I better turn it off and conserve my bulb life.
I mean come on, some one here with the skills, buy these, find a way to tap these into a projector that will trick it into thinking it has a working bulb in it to keep the power flowing to it, and make a few million in the process. I will be your first customer!
Any way, rant over, I just had to let it out after seeing the picture of that one bulb shining that bright, for a car,a nd there is TWO of them for $80! What the hell
