ProjectorQuest review: Projector bulb

I bought the SP.8VH01GC01-OEM bulb for my Optoma HD26 and it failed after only 5 months! I was able to get a replacement from the company, but that one failed as soon as I installed it on my projector. The company said I could not get a refund and that I should buy the most expensive one from them instead at $296! Do not waste your money unless you want an expensive paperweight! This company has crappy warranty and does not stand behind their products.
