| Do LCD RPTV Bulbs Go Bad?
So I have to change my LCD front projector bulb every 2000 hours. And I can noticeably tell that the bulb quality is degrading every 500 hours in or so. But does the same hold true for the bulb in an LCD RPTV?
IIRC, Sears will replace the bulb if it blows up while under warranty, but there's no mention in the manual about having to order a new bulb, opening up the case, and replacing the bulb. Also, the picture quality doesn't seem to degrade the same way the front projector does. Either it degrades much more gradually so it's not as noticeable, or it just doesn't. Possibly because the light is not reflecting off the screen but passing through it.
