How do you know if the lamp is a real Sony manufactured lamp if its being sold by the same stores that are selling junk?

sony lamps will come with the entire housing in addition to the bulb. my experience has been that any of the ones you see on amazon going for $50/$60 are fakes and will burn out within a few months. if it's that cheap, it's not going to be a OEM part. i wouldn't trust any of the ones on amazon going for less than about $90.

I stopped buying other lamps and only buy Sony parts from Sony. As far as I know Sony doesn't have an official Amazon store. All non-Sony lamps I have purchased either here or elsewhere have been pure crap.

The real deal Sony lamp will come with the lamp in the housing AND 2 replacement air filters. I have bought the replacement oem kit on Amazon through Vann's

I do not believe it is made by Sony, however, other than I had to increase the brightness slightly, the bulb works well.

OK everyone ---- NO THIS IS NOT THE EXACT SAME Salt Lamp as the FDA # mentioned in title. I called the company and she looked at both products, the FDA one at $99 and this one $82.99 and they are not same product according to the company that makes the lamp with the FDA #

These lamps are not SONY original equipment - they are made to specs by another manufacturer. Unfortunately they are not the same quality as SONY OEM products and also not the same price. I have been disappointed with the product for 2 reasons - (1) the quality of the product is reflected in the quality of my TV screen and (2) they last for a very short time and then burn out. Hope this helps in some way.

I do not know the brand name, however I think it is working alright. I have some other issues with the tv, light engine has a crack in it and I am waiting on the repair people to get it fixed. Once it is completed I should know if the lamp is in good working condition.

When I got mine, the Sony part number was printed on the package. So I'm pretty confident that they're genuine Sony.

It is an OEM. They are very specific about it being from Philips, with an insert in the packaging "authenticating" the OEM. The lamp was very easy to replace...3 minutes tops...and was awesome, right out of the box.

Look up the lamp in your owners book and if it matches then order the Sony.. its so simple to change it.. If you do not have the owners manual then go on line and it will be there.. I bought two lamps because if I sell this tv for a new one, its a great selling point to have the second lamp.. Good Luck Gene

That I am not sure. I went to the owner manual for the tv and this is the lamp that is used.

It says Philips, and it's sold as a Philips bulb assembly.If you discover it is not, report to Amazon you were sold a fake, and Amazon will correct the error or see that you get your money back. Amazon does not take fraud, lightly, and unlike other auction sites [the big B, comes to mind, that could care less], Amazon will make it right. Their solid reputation, is built on consumer trust, and they are not going to throw that away, for some two bit scammer.

I believe, the supplier offers the warranty, not the manufacturer "if" it is indeed the EXACT lamp....

I also purchased this lamp from Amazon. You get what you pay for mine was defective it's best to buy a branded name such as Phillips it costs probably about $122 but it's a good lamp the other ones are Junk. I had called the repairman out to see what was wrong with my tv, because I had just put this lamp into our tv one month before. The repairman said to always order a brand name lamp...these are made in Mexico and are cheap. They don't cost that much, but the company that they are from....sell lots because they are cheap, but they are not quality lamps. Don't know if there is a warranty, doubt it....don't know if Amazon stands behind them or not. I also purchased this lamp from Amazon.

don't think it had a brand on it... it was a lamp that fit my mitsubishi tv and was cheaper than a branded version and has lasted twice as long still worth the price if it only lasted 3 months
