I need a little bit of info on this problem to solve an arguement with my husband. He purchased this projector and has it in the garage mainly to watch fights with his friends. For the past few months, it has just shut off and a red light comes on. The arguement from him is that because I turn it on for a few minutes (10-15) at a time while I am in the garage, that that is what made the projector malfunction. He from time to time, will leave it on and running for 12 hours at a time on the weekends while him and his friends hang out. Also, our garage is not insulated, so i was wondering if the garage not being insulated, or leaving it running for 12 hours non stop could have led to the problem. Or is it because I turn it on for 10-15 minutes at a time. I know this is a silly arguement, but I need som help here!
Thank You!
We had a projector at our church that was hooked up to a light switch to turn it on or off and it kept burning the bulbs out. We had an expert come in and look over our situation and he said When you are finished with the projector let the fan keep blowing until the unit cools down. Ours had a switch for the bulb as well as one for the fan. We turned out the bulb and left the fan on for an extra ten to fifteen minutes. That let the bulb cool down gradually If you just cut the power the bulb over heats and will burn out. Yes turning on for a few minutes will burn it our quicker as well. Hope this helps.
