- This Optoma HD161x was sent to me from someone in Canada after they hit a wall with troubleshooting. The ballast did have an issue and it will be repaired in an upcoming video.
It was interesting how similar this was to the Steelcase PJ930 chassis. I wish there was a way to find out how many other models share parts. I somehow lost the closing bits. If I find the footage, I will splice it in using youtube's editor. Its just the last part where I drone on about subscribing and what not. Thanks for understanding.
To get your projector repaired, you can contact me here: keep an eye on this spot. Good changes coming, the description will be updated here with contact info once everything is ready.
If you need a lamp for one of these. Go here and use Code YT50 for 5% off your lamp assembly. www.purelandsu...
Thanks for watching!

Great job. Good to see you back Frank. Hope to see more of this kind of stuff. There is always something to learn.
thanks mate. I'm likely branching out on my own to a degree in the upcoming weeks. Im staying with my day job in a certain capacity but its time to monetize my skills a little more since I can't as much as I'd like to with the current situation.
Also, what have you heard about the upcoming EU law on HG lamps?
Nice to have you back! Missed your always informative videos! Nice work as always Frank.
Thanks Todd. Life got in the way and I'm sure it will again eventually but I promise that if I ever hang it up(not planning to) I will let folks know.
Well come back Frank 🎉.Fantastic video and very informative.looking forward to seeing more off your videos.
Hello Justin and Carole! Hope you both are well! thanks so much brother, I appreciate it.
Yo man I’m glad you are back and haven’t seen the BenQ SU964 or other SU series that I’m keeping my eye on until you find one and hope you find projectors with a startup noise beeper so I like to hear it start up and shutdown and a error messages and so forth so hey I’m glad you’re back with more videos
I'm keeping my eyes open!
You're alive!!!!!!!! Nice seeing old pjs still running!!!!!!
So far so good! Yeah, some changes are coming. I have a few more vids being edited so hopefully more help for people.
Nice to see you back Frank 👋👋
Welcome back Frank!
Perfect, thx mate.
sure thing Ricky. I have a few more being edited now.
Nice to see you back Frank 😊. I did see a news story on my phone that from 2026, you will no longer be able to buy projector lamps containing Mercury.....is this the same for the US or is it a Euro directive? Thanks for the video buddy.....Karl.
not frank here but as far as I know: It's only a EU law, and spare parts (as projector lamps) are still available after 2026, but no new products and projectors with classic lamps.
It's true and only for Europe. I just stocked lamps for my projectors.
Thanks for the update guys. 👍
Hi Karl! Thanks! I saw that too and I have conflicting info. As of now I think its not going to affect them. The author is kind of assuming a lot in that article. Philips/Signify seem to think projector lamps will be exempt. They currently do not qualify to even need MSDS sheets since the mercury is enclosed and unable to leak unless damaged. I am waiting for more specific confirmation from Ushio, Osram and Philips/signify. The actual law is aimed at consumer lamps/home lighting. I know when lamps are exported/imported there is no special paperwork required so we will see. I'll probably post something once I get more concrete info.
I don't think they are making lamp based units anymore anyway. I am pretty sure even BenQ flipped to solid state for now. I do think some of the higher end/high lumen dual lamp stuff is still being built.
Looking forward to your tutorial on Epson co-fh01 and 02 lamp replacement.. thanks!
Lamp replacement Is very Easy you Just Need a screwdriver and open the lamp cover unscrew two screws on lamp body and pull It out then insert the new lamp screw back two screws Place back lamp cover and secure It with screw.
Hi Pino, These particular units don't have user replaceable lamps. They are sealed enclosures( you just have to take the case apart). I'm actually trying to get my hands on one to make a video. NEC did this some years ago too. It didn't go well for them either.
I'm actually trying to get my hands on one to do a video for this. do you have one?
@@FixitFrank you're right, but he has an Epson and all them has lamp cover on body. Very Easy job. Take care.
Hi Frank!, where can I get the information on sending my optoma projector and your price list? I have tried lamp and color wheel for my optoma projector with no luck
I'm in between shops at the moment. August I should be up and running.
how much do you charge to fix this? I have the same issue.
If its the same exact problem and solution, Estimated around $175-225 depending on shipping. but without seeing it, I can only give those numbers as an estimate.
