Ok, almost 5+ years, the Acer H5370bd has for the first time failed to start. I don't use it regularly, may be even less than a month owing to my hectic travel schedule. Most of the times it is snugly packed back in its bag and waiting for me to unpack it and plug it in.
Today when I did so, there was the regular happy beep and then it was followed by a blinking blue light, double beep and the red light on lamp has come up. I am sure I have not used it even close to 1000 hours yet so shouldn't be the lamp.
Have sent a PM to Dev who had in an earlier post indicated his pleasant experience of connecting with best projections in Delhi. Lets see, if they are able to help me. I am in Gurgaon, will connect with them and keep you guys posted on how things turn up.
Quick questions though - has anyone got the lamp changed for this PJ locally, if yes, what has been the cost? And also if there have been any other repairs or DIY cleaning/troubleshooting tips, they will be more than welcome.
Hope to get back to happy viewing days again.
