Benefits of OEM Lamps

When you use an original manufacturer (OEM) lamp, you are assured of the brightness and rich color your projector was designed to provide. This is because every component from an OEM lamp, through the optics, power supply, electronics and processing algorithms, are harmonized to provide an optimum image. All components of the lamp are essential to the performance of your projector. Poor component selection and build quality will reduce the performance and life of the lamp. The lamp driver unit or ballast is often uniquely designed for the lamp of each projector model to ensure a steady arc of light and an image that doesn't flicker. A steady arc results in a cleaner image, controlled component aging and reliability in future lamp ignition. If the arc jumps, it will damage the burners' electrodes causing the image to flicker and become harder to start as the arc gap widens.
