Need a new blub for my  benq 1080, same blub used in benq 1070. Any suggestions on where to buy a cheap, quality blub? Thanks!

I would start your search over at Amazon. I've bought several replacement lamps for my own projector over there, though not a Benq.

Look there a little, some bulbs say there orginal but aren't. Have you always bought original bulbs or tried aftermarket? Thanks.

I will always buy the ones saying original bulb, though they may advertise a generic housing.  My last lamp was purchased on amazon for $38 bucks and I just retired it for a new one after getting over 3600 hours on it.   I did have one that failed on me, though I did get a free replacement for it.  

There is also this place that sells all original lamps, so they say.

Seems orginal is the way to go, I decided to buy just the bulb and use my housing. Orginal bulb is kind of middle of the road between generic lamp and and OEM. 38 bucks is a deal looks like mine will run around 70bucks for a bulb shipped.

 

Did your old one blow up, heard a small pop and saw small flame when mine blew. That was a WTH moment.

I’ve had two bulbs fail on my Mitsubishi PJ. One sounded like a soft pphhht.  Another, like a gunshot. A bit startling when everything goes dark at the same time.

WHen I used to buy bulbs for my rear projection TVs, the Osram bulbs lasted and were worth the extra bucks. 

Osram orginal 79.99 free shipping. Company Abitan has one for 66.99 free shipping, company has good reviews 180 day warranty.

 

I trust your reviews more then amazon,  if I don't find a better deal I will go with the Osram.
