[0.595 lb] Its the right lamp for my projector. Seems to be OEM. Good quality. Works as intended so far.

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

[BenQ MH530] Arrived very well packaged. Comes with mounting screws. Easy install and my projector is back in action. This is the same bulb that comes with the projector from the factory.

[0.595 lb] This is the genuine ELPLP89 Replacement Projector Lamp that comes with your Epson 5040UB Projector (and maybe others in the Epson line - I'm not sure). B&H's price is the lowest around, even better than Epson itself on this item. Mine went right to work and replaced a bulb that Epson is going to replace for free, but I decided that having a back-up would be the clever thing to do so I don't have to wait a day or two or more for that replacement. This one works as well as the original (actually better since the original was obviously a lemon straight from the factory). B&H gave me two day shipping free and I had it on the second day after ordering. The one from Epson is coming ground and I might see it by Dec 23 if I'm lucky (I could have paid for quicker shipping of course). Overall I'm very pleased with this purchase and with B&H's amazing holiday shipping!!!

[BenQ MH530] This was my 1st replacement for the EPSON 5040UB and i used it for 5 years and getting my 2nd one again.

[BenQ MH530] 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.

[BenQ MH530] product packaged well, fast shipping , low price - very pleased and will buy from again

[BenQ MH530] 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!

[0.595 lb] The replacement lamp look to be in perfect condition. Couldn't be happier with my purchase, would recommend to anyone. Ultra fast shipping.

[BenQ MH530] Just replaced the original bulb that blew recently. New bulb has the same picture, quality and brightness as far as I can tell. I'm using it as a home theater projector and have no real complaints. Clearly I haven't used this bulb long so I can't confirm bulb life, but I can say that the original lasted about 22 months with it as the main television in the house. So not bad.
