A few years ago, I got a good deal on a 4K projector and setup a 135" screen on the wall. The lamp stopped working and I’ve put off replacing it. You know what didn’t stop working? The 10+ year old Haier 1080p TV with a ding in the screen and the two cinder blocks that currently keep it from sliding across the living room floor.

Why does it slide across the floor? Do you live on a boat?

I wish. It’s sitting on the floor and there’s a rug, so the cinder blocks are in front of it at the corners. Now my bed is a little more saggy. I might need some new furniture.

I still can’t visualise the problem. Do you have an ms paint diagram?

If you still have it, do it. Replacing the lamp on a projector is incredibly easy and only takes like 15 minutes.

If you only order the bulb without casing it’s also very cheap.

Yep! I bought a model with pretty cheap/easy replacement bulbs. I just need to actually pull the trigger and replace it.

Yep I feel the same. I love how old stuff seem to last longer and longer and the new stuff breaks just out of the blue.
