Great video, very helpful! I was doing this and found a slight shortcut: for the two brackets that hold the bulb in place, you only have to completely remove one. With the easier-to-remove bracket all the way off, you can loosen the screws on the other bracket, and the bulb wiggles free pretty easily. It's still possible to install the new bulb, making sure to line up that notch that the video points out.
THIS was the video I needed! I've replaced bulbs on other projectors but this one was a bit more difficult as I didn't get the entire enclosure; I just got the bulb. Thanks!
This video completely walked me through replacing the bulb. Thank you so much. It went really well and i feel so great i did it myself (with your video!). Thanks guys :)
Hello mate! Any drawbacks in projection after replacing the bulb? I mean like more brightness on one side than the other, or more brightness in the center than in the corners compared to the original?

Do not.. I mean DO NOT change bulb without cotton gloves. If you get oil on the outside of the bulb you shorten the bulb life length by half. I mean it seriously don't do it like this dude. Everything else is good only thing are the gloves he don't use.
Any idea what to do if the bracket screws are firmly stuck? (Looks like mine are even smaller than yours, difficult to find a screwdriver that doesn't slip out)
Good morning, I state that I can not hear the audio of your video. In another user's video I saw that between the lamp and the external plastic door there is a sheet of transparent plastic adhesive to seal the lamp from dust. The person who made the video, removed the transparent sticker before removing the lamp and then, after inserting a new lamp, put a new sheet of transparent plastic adhesive to seal the lamp from the dust and then inserted the plastic outer door to close the projector. In the opening video, there is no clear plastic sheet to seal the lamp from dust. Neither before nor after ... Because? thank you
Great video! I'm thinking about purchase a second hand one (same model). He sells it with an extra lamp (bare bulb) but i'm not sure if that bulb is original or not. Could you tell me the serial number and/or brand of the lamp or other information about it so i can confirm the authenticity of the lamp. Thank you very much!
Does anyone know what the 2 cables that connect to the bulb are called? And the little plastic square connector they connect to? One of these cables shorted on my W1070 and I'm trying to find the part online but can't find it anywhere. No clue what it's called... does anyone know?
I opened my projector lamp case to find the whole lamp had exploded. Glass is everywhere inside. What should i do When the lamp went bang it sounded like a flashbang grenade
I'm from India and when I called up Benq repair center they told me cost of a replacement bulb would be around 200 USD. But I can see bulbs of my Benq model w1050 on eBay for $80. If I were to keep using my projector, do you think the bulbs will still be available in 4 or 5 years or so? I really don't want my projector to go to waste. And also do you think it's good to buy from eBay?
Thanks for this video. Certainly helped me with my projector bulb replacement.

Genius - thanks 👍🏼

@@sovuhar I bought a shitty Chinese bulb which was poor quality. It we up again about 2 months later.
@@PresidentBust too bad.
That's the easy way to do it. Bravo !

Thanks a lot! This was very helpful, all the best from Berlin!
Thank you for the instructions, they worked well for me.
Super tutorial, many thanks Kieran
This helped me fix mine.
Thanks very much - really helpful 👍🏼
That's twice this has come in handy. I was thinking of upgrading to a 4K projector, but money is tight so I treated myself to a new lamp instead.
Great video thanks man !!!!!
Great video. Did the job.
Thank you for the video.

Kammaflaje agreed! Gloves is mandatory! Oils will from
Skin will make bulb run hotter and overheat and have hot spots. I learned the hard way :(
I agree.
what kind of gloves should we have? the rubber one/the plastic one/the cotton one?

Never use air to clean. I fukced up my projector because some dust came into lens chamber.
merci
Good video, thanks for posting.

Thanks for the video. I'm getting a new lamp for £28. Happy it's not £200 or more...
Dzinini Bob where from, did you get it? Please link here. Thanks.
@@BR-ip8lp It actually was £58...Initially I was looking at the wrong part. Sorry for this...It's still a good price.
Thanks for the video....only thing to add, apart from using gloves, is to dispose of the old bulb correctly... they contain mercury.

You should always have gloves on and never touch bulb by bare hands. It will shorten bulb life if not.
Thank you.
Does it matter which wire plugs to which prong?
I opened my projector lamp case to find the whole lamp had exploded. Glass is everywhere inside. What should i do
When the lamp went bang it sounded like a flashbang grenade
Great Vid! THX
