| Re: Mitsubishi DLP XX731, XX732, XX831
The lamp for the WD-65731 (150W) part # 915P049010 is $249 retail from Mitsubishi. Dealer cost is $200 so there is little margin in it. Typically the Mits prices have been the best for the lamps. For instance, Optoma used the same lamp as found in earlier model Mits DLPs and are much more expensive than the same lamp from Mitsubishi. The 180W lamp for the 831 is the same price, part #915P049020.
Mitsubishi does not sell parts through distributors but does sell at retail to consumers. Their prices have been very reasonable.
The lamps have been user replaceable and very easy to change. I have not looked at the new sets yet in this respect but I am sure they will remain so. We do service training on them next month.
