in any way. The actual operating life span of a projector lamp will vary
according to operating conditions and usage patterns. Usage of a
projector in stressful conditions which may include dusty
environments, under high temperatures, many hours per day, and
abrupt powering-off will most likely result in a lamp’s shortened
operating life span or possible lamp failure.
