COOBAN ELPLP78 /V13H010L78 Replacement Projector Lamp Bulb with Housing for Epson PowerLite Home Cinema 2000 2030 2040 2045 730HD 740HD EX7230 EX7235 EX5220 EX3220 EX5230 EX6220 EX7220 VS230 VS330

The replacement lamp was easy to install, and it replaced the original Epson projector bulb which was the original bulb from when I initially purchased the projector back in 2019. The original projector bulb was still functioning extremely well with no issues at all. I replaced the original bulb because the projector's software suggested a lamp replacement.

Update 5-19-25 The second lamp lasted 3550 hours. OEM lamps claim 4000 hours life but cost $140 on Amazon. Cooban lamps cost about $40 and the two I've had have lasted 2000 an 3550 hours. Changing is easy and takes less than a half hour, including removal from the ceiling mount and rehanging the projector. The lamp is identical to an OEM in color temperature and brightness, and maintains its brightness throughout it's life. Cooban includes a mini screwdriver and a cotton glove to keep finger oils off the lamp while replacing it. (Finger oils can reduce the life of a lamp) So, you do the math; $140 for 4000 hours or, based on my two lamps, 6550 hours for $80. I'll go with the Cooban every time! In fact, Changing the lamp is easy, at least on my Epson. First, slide the lens cover closed to keep from accidentally touching the lens. Remove the one screw than holds the lamp cover in place. Two screws hold the lamp in place. Unscrew these, then pull the lamp housing straight up to remove it. Holding the new lamp in your gloved hand insert it into the opening, then press down till you feel it seat in the socket. Tighten the two screws to hold it in place. Replace the lamp cover and tighten the screw to hold it in place. While you are doing this you should also remove the dust filter and vacuum it clean. Actually, if you use your projector a lot, you should do this monthly. These lamps need to run at high temperatures to generate the bright light needed, so good air flow to cool the lamp is critical to long lamp life. Original Review: OK, this is going to sound a little strange giving this lamp 5 stars after it lasted only 190 days, but read on... Projector lamp life is a crap shoot. I've had OEM lamps that lasted 4000 hours to as much as 9000 hours in my Epson projector, and this lamp lasted a little over 2000 hours. Here's why it gets 5 stars. At 190 days it was within the 200 day warranty, so I contacted Cooban. Then, anticipating a couple of weeks to process the warranty I bought another lamp from them to get back up and running right away. Why? Because these are good lamps. Unlike other non-OEM lamps I've bought, these have the correct color light. No adjustments have to be made to your settings. They also seem to run as cool as an OEM. If you've ever had an aftermarket lamp cook one of your LCD panels you'll know what I'm talking about. But. the biggest reason for the 5 stars is their warranty performance! I contacted Cooban with a copy of my Amazon receipt. They responded immediately with a request for a picture of the projector's diagnostic lights. I sent them the picture, which confirmed a defective lamp, and the next day they emailed me apologizing for the inconvenience and letting me know they were sending a replacement, which arrived promptly. Perfect customer service! You can buy with confidence from this Cooban! Another thing to consider is the price. OEM lamps cost almost 5 times what this lamp costs. Epsom claims a 4000 hour OEM lamp life. Changing a lamp takes less than 10 minutes. Cooban even includes a screwdriver and cotton glove to change the lamp. Even if you only get 2000 hours per lamp, compared to the OEM lamp life claimed by the manufacturer you will get more than twice the hours for half the price of an OEM.

Purchased the last weekend in November of 2022. Seemingly worked fine, but noticed a high-pitched beep, that was at regular intervals, so assume it was some sort of error code. With about 50-60 hours of use, it stopped working and I have a 'replace lamp' error light on my projector. Even though it's be 6 months since installing (writing this as of June 10th, we use it infrequently, so I would've expected this product to last much longer than that. Disappointed to say the least between the beep and lack of durability. ** Within a day or two of posting this review, Cooban customer service reached out. I was still within my fist 200 days of getting the product and the service representative offered to replace the lamp at no additional charge and with relatively no questions asked. I promptly received the replacement as promised and have just replaced the lamp. Everything is working. I still hear a faint, high pitched noise from the projector that is audible when the volume is down very low. I was hoping this noise would resolve with the replacement but that didn't happen. It is mildly annoying, but I'm willing to live with it for now. I only had 34 hours of use on the previous lamp, so we'll see how long this one lasts. I did replace the air filter, and cleaned the projector of dust. I also adhere to all best-practice suggestions for getting the most life out of the bulb, so I'll be curious if this replacement is better than the first Cooban lamp I purchased. My original lamp that was in the projector out of the box lasted almost 10 years and well beyond 300 hours of use, so even if this replacement lasts half of the life of the original lamp, I will be satisfied. I must note that the customer service was top-notch, attentive, and truly backed their product.

I recently purchased a replacement lamp bulb with housing for my Epson PowerLite projector, and I must say, I'm quite impressed with the product. Overall, I'd give it a 4.9 out of 5 rating. The bulb produced bright, vivid images that were perfect for my presentations, and the installation process was a breeze. It didn't take much time to replace the old bulb, and I was up and running in no time. The only minor hiccup was the delivery time, which took longer than expected. However, I should note that this delay was due to my location and not the company's fault. Despite the delay, I'm pleased with the product's performance, and it was well worth the wait. In summary, I would definitely recommend this replacement lamp bulb with housing to anyone looking for a high-quality, reliable product. It's compatible with a variety of projectors, and it delivers on its promises. Overall, I'm satisfied with my purchase and would buy it again.

Started failing after 4 months of use. I hear annoying high pitch noise goes up and down constantly and I see the brightness dropped drastically like an old lamp. I don't think it will last for any further. Poor design and don't recommend to buy it. -- Update. After posting this review, seller has reached out to me directly and sent me a new replacement lamp and refunded. It is back in working condition now. Love this kind of response from any seller about their customer concern addressed in timely manner.

ME AGRADO LA ATENCION DEL PEDIDO

This lamp is amazing! The first time I ordered it, it arrived late, so Amazon refunded me. On top of that, the seller was super nice and sent me another one for free. I’ve had it for a few weeks now, and it’s been working perfectly. Definitely recommend it! (My camera quality doesn't give it enough justice)

This lamp was delivered on the 24th December .. it worked for 6 weeks, I'm now having trouble making contact to get this lamp replaced..it has a 200 day warranty Coolant light source

Great picture but this bulb only lasted six months, previous bulb (same brand) lasted 8 months and the one before that was 1 year. Not sure why.

Item received was as described by seller. Perfect replacement for my projector model. Easy installation and handling instructions included.
