    Something simple: DLP lamps

    I just acquired an 800x600 DLP projector that has an HID lamp from someone who wanted to get rid of it. Fortunately after cleaning it up an removing a loose screw that appears to have fell into the unit (I hope that it really did not belong to it) it seems to work just fine. For kicks I looked for a new bulb for it...

    And compared it to ebay prices of the same projector...

    Seems that I'd be better off buying two complete projectors for the same price as a single new bulb!

    Anyone know if there are generic bulbs that can be had for cheaper?

    TOSHIBA DLP 52HM95 How to reset timer module on bulb
    by repair-it
    I replaced the bulb only on my Toshiba DLP The bulb is a TB-25. This is the first time I've done a bulb only replacement. Supposedly there is a timer module that needs to be re-calibrated or reset. I don't know where the module is located. I see some vendors selling the bulb with the housing stating module included which leads me to think the module is located inside the enclosure the bulb mounts in, but I didn't see it. Maybe it's inside the plug attached to the bulb?

    Anyway - I am seeking information on how to reset this so called module so that the lamp will operate. Apparently...

    LUMIMAN Smart Bulb IC ID?
    by ezenia
    Hi,

    I have a LUMIMAN Smart Bulb that suddenly stopped lighting one day. The bulb is still detected in the app, but won't light. I've probed around and nothing seems to look off with any of the diodes, caps or resistors. The Bluetooth/Wi-Fi module seems to be working as it's still detected in the app. I even tried deleting and re-pairing the bulb (it didn't light, but I was still able to follow the pairing instructions), it re-paired fine, but still no light.

    In diode mode, the LEDs all light up when probed so I'm guessing this means the LEDs themselves are OK. I was expecting...

    Replacing incandescent bulb on Pioneer LD player with led. Need help :)
    by JimBanville
    I have a pioneer dvl-909 LD/dvd player from 1998. It has a light on the front panel that lights up when you play a dvd. I removed the bulb and it appears to be a tiny incandescent bulb. Its measures "open"/dead and the bulb is black like it's blown. The socket it fits into measures 5v. I've looked up the schematics and there's no indication of the amperage. I don't want to spend any money on new parts, but I have a pack of like 100, 3v, 20ma LEDs and I have various resistors.
    Is there a way for me to determine the amperage going to the old dead bulb with my multimeter?
