Sony XL-5100 - Projection TV replacement lamp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I saw the price of $125, I thought it was too good to be true since most other places were selling the COMPLETE lamp assembly for around $40-$50 more. Well, it was. This Vendor (Vann's) displays a picture of the whole replacement lamp assembly (which is the normal part as per Sony), but they ship you ONLY the LAMP with no housing and no instructions and its not even a Sony lamp, some Osram P22H bulb you can buy online for less then $100. In addition, the box they ship it in has no protection whatsoever except for a little cardboard. I was planning to return this until I realized they charge a 20% restocking fee which was never disclosed in the listing for the product. Also, to install just the lamp requires ALOT of time and work to dissassemble the housing. NOT WORTH IT AT ALL!

Sony XL2100U - Projection TV replacement lamp Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this lamp to replace the original on my Sony 50" LCD projection TV, model KF-50WE610, that I bought a little over three years ago. The installation took about 30 minutes, but now that I've done it once, it'll probably take 10 minutes next time.
The hardest part was removing the front panel cover. First, loosen the screws around the back on either side. What I did then was start at the right side, getting it loosened up there, and then sort of wedging it out as I moved over to the left side.
Once you get the main face plate off, the lamp housing is right in the middle. Remove the plastic plate in front of the lamp, and unscrew the lamp with the included 3mm Allen wrench (well, it was included in *mine*). Pull out the old lamp, pop the new one in, tighten it down (not too tight), and put the lamp cover back on. Check that old lamp, you'll probably see the blown-out filament. At this point, plug the TV in. If the red light glows steady, you're good. If it blinks, the lamp is not installed solidly. Try removing and reseating it.
Once you've got it, pop the main face plate back on. There are three little sockets (on my TV anyway) that the face plate pops into. You'll see them when you have it off - this is what makes removing the face plate a little tough. Pop those in by just pressing on the face plate at those points. You should feel (and hear) them pop in. Once they're in, tighten up the mounting screws on the back sides of the TV. Voila! You saved yourself probably $150 by doing it yourself. Now, do your best imitation of Tom Hanks in the scene in Castaway where he makes the bonfire, and proclaim "I...(thump chest)...have replaced the projection lamp in my TV!"

Sony XL-2400 Replacement Lamp for Grand WEGA 3LCD Rear Projection HDTV Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When our TV's lamp went out, I was a little concerned about how hard it would be to change this thing out... I'm a computer geek by trade, but I honestly don't know a lot about HD televisions. I took a quick look at my TV's manual, and had learned how to pop the lamp in and out in just a few minutes.
Basically, you pop open one panel, turn a lever and pull out another panel, grab the old lamp by hook/finger handle, gently pull up and out. Push the new one in until it pops into place, make sure you replace the inner panel properly (the one with the lever, if not secured properly, the TV won't turn on), then pop the outer panel back on and there you have it, a TV again.
Our lamp has been in for several months, and the image quality (especially brightness) seems to be as good as I remember the stock lamp. Having said that, it may be the stock lamp.
Summary: if your WEGA or whatever goes black and this lamp fits into your unit, then get one. I like a bright TV in a dark room, as does my wife. We've both put this replacement lamp to it's paces, not to mention we leave the TV on when we're not home.
