Purchased the Cinego 12/05. Bulb burned out 11/06. Replacement bulbs not available anywhere until March 2007. That means we did not have our projector for Christmas, New Years and apparently Radio Shack does not care that we will not get to watch the Super Bowl either. Thanx for nothing! BTW: Bulb lasted only 14xx hours. This was an expensive lesson learned. DO NOT BUY "Made for Radio Shack" products.

Our bulb lasted a year. I called in and after a 2 day wait, I received a bulb via fed-ex on 1/11/07. I'm wondering if Marge didn't purchase the warranty.

Our bulb lasted a year (8+hours a day use). I called in and after a 2 day wait, I received a bulb via fed-ex on 1/11/07. I'm wondering if Marge didn't purchase the warranty. The only issue I found was getting the "Lamp Life Time Is Up" screen to go away without the remote.

Interested in who Coreen called. We went into a Radio Shack store and they could not get the bulb until March, '07. We are subscribed to the Radio Shack site for the bulb and it is Out of Stock! Don't understand her comment about warranty. The bulb warranty is only 90 days.

I purchased a Cinego three years ago for me and my kids. We love it. We have a drop down 60 inch screen that pulls down directly in front of our other T.V.
We use the Cinego for movies, when we are getting away from the "broad cast." It is our, 2007 way, of going to a drive in.
We also take it outside in the summer, hang a sheet from the porch, and watch Jaws from the hot tub, every July 4th....
I get so tired of hearing talk of resolution, Hi Def, and advancing technology as a whole.....sometimes, you just gotta run with what works....Did you marry your wife for her looks, or for soul.......

My girlfriend now wife bought this for me and it works just fine. I've had it for two years but now need a remote and don't know where to find one. I have two and one is still in the plastic but does not work and the other has been worn down on the play button. Its great for video games and travel. that is mostly what i use it for and now deployed to iraq its a morale booster on those quiet nights. BUT I need a new remote...Help!!

When the projector says "Lamp Life Time Is Up" it wont go away until you use your remote control to RESET the lamp. Press Proj/menu on the remote then press (9) to Management. Then Press Reset Lamp.
