After just under two years of owning my PLV-Z1, I have gone through two lamps. The first went after about 350 hours. The second one lasted about 420 hours. Almost all but about 20 hours of each bulb was on the low light setting. The projector is in a well ventillated area, is always shut down properly and allowed to cool, and the filters are clean. After the first bulb went I figured I just had back luck. With the second bulb gone after such a short time I now believe the projector is "burning" out the bulbs somehow. Has anyone experienced a similar experience with the Z1? Is it "normal" to have two bulbs in a row go with such a short life when used properly? Any ideas on how the projector might be the causing the problem?
Thanks,
