c44me Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Anyone have a Sony VPL-HW40ES / 55ES projector or similar with flickering issue(s)? I am at around 630hrs on the original bulb and it appears this is a known issue according to the research below? Anyone have a fix? Tried running it in HIGH fan mode (which is louder) and it alleviated the issue for a bit, but it returned... thanks! https://www.avforums.com/threads/hw40es-flickering-in-low-lamp-mode.1890785/ http://community.sony.com/t5/Home-Theater-Products/Sony-Projector-VPL-HW40ES-screen-flickers-or-blanks-temporarily/td-p/547184 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c44me Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 I spent a hour on hold and 30mins speaking to call center guy from Sony ES tech support. Evidently the bulb is 90 days and he (and I) are pretty sure thats the culprit.... SO does anyone have suggestion for reasonable bulb replacement source or vendor for the LMP H202 bulb? Or any dealer here want to sell me one? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices I see are all over the map and mostly from exclusivebulbs - and not OEM far as I can tell: https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_6_8?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=sony+lmp-h202&sprefix=sony+LMP%2Caps%2C186&crid=2Q4PEHZE6PRIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d1amund Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Top one in your link was the one I was referring to due to prime and Amazon fulfillment. Your post said reasonable and replacement not OEM. If you like I can sell you the OEM one for 500 USD plus shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
