Epson Projector Bulb Light Flashing

This was a move up from an Epson 5030ub, so bulb based 1080p to native 4K laser is quite the jump. I’m projecting on a 135” budget 1.0 gain grey screen and the colors, contrast and brightness are spectacular. I sit about 14’ away and the detail and sharpness of the image is so much better than what I was used to. I love that Epson for what it is but this is in a different league. Having only had the projector for a couple of weeks, I’m still playing with different settings and testing various 4K media with my Oppo so still have to spend more time with this to really get to know it. The only con I’ve noticed so far is it can crush some black detail in difficult scenes but I may be able to tease out some image with some adjustment tweaks, not a deal breaker for me but worth mentioning. Also, my old projector was supposed to have a similar lumen rating and had about 900hr on the bulb but this is significantly brighter. Haven’t put the laser past 60 (50 is default) and won’t need to unless I am keeping some lights on in the room. Last thing is it is much quieter than the old Epson and is mounted right above my head so that is also a big plus, hope it stays this quiet.

I just purchased a new 4K Epson projector for my home and as I have done for my previous home projectors, I always buy a spare bulb right away. I probably won't need if for at least three years, but just in case, I'll have it hand if it goes early. The price from B&H was the best out there and it clearly was an original Epson product. Here's hoping that I DON'T need it from some time to come.

This projector bag is fantastic & is a perfect fit for my new Epson Powerlite Projector. The material is light and yet durable and helps to protect my investment. Also the front pocket holds any cables I need to bring with me when setting up the projector.

“This is a review for the Epson Powerlite 1781W Projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review." The Epson 1781W is a well rounded, thin-and-light projector, with good brightness and resolution, very good data and video image quality, and a wide range of connectivity choices. One of its few shortfalls is that as an LCD-based projector, it cannot project 3D content, which you can find in many portable WXGA data projectors such as the ViewSonic PJD6544w. But that only matters if you need to project in 3D. For its winning combination of features and performance at a reasonable price, the Epson PowerLite 1781W Wireless WXGA 3LCD Projector is our latest Editors' Choice ultra-light WXGA data projector.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First off, the 20,000 hour lifespan of the lasers was a big selling point for me having had to deal with expensive bulb replacements and shattered glass in the past, this was a welcome change. The fans that cool the projector's internal components are quiet (26db), and the heat is a tiny fraction of what I’ve experienced with traditional bulb projectors. There is something so magical about being able to instantly summon a 120" display with sound, mere inches from a wall, it is an experience in and of itself. The main feature of this UST is the 3-channel laser tech that allows each primary (RGB) color to have its own light source, this gives a more visually striking image than a device with a single light source (RGB color wheels), even with sunlight. That technology helps to produce a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio and 3,700 ANSI lumens, a picture that packs a punch. webOS is fast and feature packed! Screen mirroring features are also included and work like a dream, connecting with your compatible smartphone is super easy, there are also options to mirror your pc or mac. HDR Dynamic Tone Mapping alters the brightness in each frame, and Brightness Optimizer II adjusts the projector's settings based on the environment, it takes the guesswork out of calibrating the optimal image for any given environment. The sound is really good for being on-board, I was actually impressed. Better than any TV I’ve heard, there is adequate bass and clear sound. A lot of thoughtful design went into this unit and you can tell, all of these features make this projector worth it, it’s an all-rounder with the power to be a daily driver in a living room or a dedicated home theater setup.

I bought this laser projector to replace my standard bulb projector. I needed something that would cut through the ambient light and not have washed out images or videos. This is bright and crisp and does exactly what I had hoped it would do. Plus it was easy to install and set up.

This was a replacement bulb for a very old overhead projector. It works great.

but it is unsettling to have the upstream light flashing

“This is a review for the Epson EpiqVision® Flex CO-FH02 Full HD 1080p Smart Portable Projector projector that I received free of charge to do a beta test and review.” I really like this projector alot!..... I have several Epson products and this is a winner! The set up was so easy and fast.... I am very impressed with how bright the projection is even in full daylight in my studio! Also, the Auto Keystone Correction was great!....Thats a huge plus for me. When I tilt the Projector up, it adjusts the image for the angle....Love that! Another HUGE bonus is the speaker!.....I was shocked at how good it sounds on its own... and that is VERY rare for a small projector. Impressive! The resolution on this projector is quite amazing!.... I projected an image equivalent to about 90 inches wide and it was super clear, and very sharp! I do wish that it had a zoom feature, but thats not a deal breaker at all. The fact that this powerful projector easily fits into a backpack or small luggage is fantastic! I travel alot and will take it on many trips. I do wish that it had more HDMI Ports.... but I can use an external hub. Big plus that I love is the Android feature! I use Android Phones and this will come in handy in so many ways! Overall, this Epson is a WINNER to me....its light weight, sharp, great design and very affordable!...

It's a light bulb.
