[245 W] Recently had a lamp go out on Epson 710HD, bought this replacement lamp. Happy with it so far, much brighter than the failing lamp was at the end of its life. Had it a few weeks now, will update if anything unexpected occurs. Best price I could find for OEM lamp. First time I replaced the lamp. Very straightforward. Would have liked to order a replacement air filter and have them ship together to avoid additional shipping fees, but it said those wouldn't ship for 2-4wks, whereas the lamp arrived within a few days with free shipping.

[0.95 lb] I tried a third party replacement lamp from Amazon and it failed immediately. I should have stuck with the manufacturers replacement; this works just as it should, and is cheaper than directly from Epson!

[0.95 lb] I still love my Epson 710HD and have used a couple of knock-off bulbs for the past 2 years. I am on year 8 with my projector and after the original lamp dimmed out, I tried 4 bulbs from the Big A online store. 1 arrived DOA and I successfully returned it for credit. The 2nd would flicker occasionally, so I emailed seller who said they would send a replacement - but they never did. So if you try a knock-off, make sure it has Free Returns on the description and simply return immediately it if you have a problem. I read about several knock-off bulbs exploding in people's projectors and other problems.


So I, a tight-wad by nature, finally decided to get the REAL bulb. Before I ordered it, I contacted Epson for clarification on the 90 day warranty - it took half a dozen emails to them but finally got a reply saying they warranty it to not die, be dim, or flicker for 90 days. . . and if there is an issue, they would replace it. Here is the quote: If you were to purchase the lamp through B&H Photo, who is one of our authorized resellers, we will absolutely honor the warranty. B&H's policy is that if a lamp fails either immediately after it
has been installed or anytime thereafter during the 90 day warranty period, that you contact us for the exchange for a replacement, which we would be happy to provide. Notice that you contact Epson, not B&H. Also, the Epson rep never directly answered my question about cross-shipping or sending a new one before I return the defective one.

Anyway, I am now on day 20 and the bulb has worked flawlessly (about 2 hours a day). I do notice that the cooling fan runs a bit louder, but that is probably because the original lamp is a bit brighter (even in ECO mode). If I can get the 3 years of use like I did the original, I'll be happy.

[0.95 lb] Before buying this I bought a lamp that was not original. It was a bad move! It would flicker randomly.

After buying this from B&H, I had no issues at all. Product arrived on time. The picture quality was amazing. I could not be happier. The lamp is 50 bucks cheaper on B&H!

[0.95 lb] very good product, good price

[0.95 lb] OEM product and package. Works perfectly.

[245 W] B&H provided excellent service! I was able to resume using my projector within 2 days.

[0.95 lb] This was my 1st replacement for the EPSON 5040UB and i used it for 5 years and getting my 2nd one again.

[245 W] I LOVE DOING BUSINESS WITH A PROFESSIONAL COMPANY AND THAT IS WHAT YOUR ARE B&H. IT WAS A PLEASURE TO TALK TO DR. JAZZY AND THE OTHER CUSTOMER SERVICE AGENT. I LOVE MY ITEM AND IT IS DOING GREAT. IT CAME ON TIME AND WAS SECURELY PACKAGED IT WAS LIKE TRYING TO GET INTO FORT KNOX WHICH KEPT THE THE ITEM FROM DAMAGE. WELL DONE

[245 W] Product was exactly what we needed, it installed perfectly.
