Hi Scott: I bought 2 of these. I looked all over and I did not see any manufacturer. It is made in China. So far what I purchased has worked very well. I am pleased.

Can't answer that question. We are using the bulb that was in it when we bought it.

As with most light bulbs, they are manufactured in China to our specifications.

The generic bulb I recieved was made in China. I sent it back, cause it flickered like a strobe light. I then spent the extra money and purchased a Mitsubishi factory bulb with the housing and it was made in Mexico, had to adjust the brightness back down after install the factory bulb. You get what you pay for. Bulb still going strong.

I am not sure. I no longer have the packaging and it is not printed on the bulb. They are good quality and all 12 worked. I think the country of origin for all items should be disclosed on the website.

I recently purchased this item (1-2 months ago), and it was both the bulb and the housing - original sony parts. Not the cheap knockoff. The last one lasted us 5 years.

I contacted the manufacturer via www.madeinchina.com for a new bulb. We'll see...

Sorry, I'm not sure either. My husband uses it a lot and has even left it on overnight but the bulb is still good.

Nothing I could see on the packaging, but I can tell you that it is exactly the same bulb that I replaced in every form.Made in Germany and is the original bulb on the car. The one I replaced lasted 8 years.

No idea. Mine are only a few months old and need to be replaced. Even with the rubber boot around the bulb, the housing collects moisture and rust inside

Yes, A housing was included, but the fit of a replacement housing is questionable. In my case, rather than put up with a less than perfect fit (that's being kind as I couldn't get it to fully seat), I just moved the bulb to the original housing, but you need to be careful not to touch the bulb (use gloves, preferably not latex as the sodium from your fingers goes right through latex) and avoid touching the glass. If you have a couple small screwdrivers and a small needle-nosed pliers or big tweezers (to start the small screws) and are pretty handy, focus on buying the same bulb as the original and install the bulb. Start by taking pictures as you progress so you have a reference for reassembly and work on a white table cloth (to find any small pieces that drop). No one supports bulb replacement as a DIY except for buying one in a housing, but there are videos on Utube that show you how.

Generic Made in China, I was told by a tv repairman who said also those bulbs are not worth it, the real bulbs to buy will be around $200 or so, and not cheaper. I guess he is correct and not just selling me a pricey bulb.

Have not replaced the bulb so far...yet. I believe you can probably write to the manufacturer.

Sorry I don't really remember. It's working fine. Not exactly a fine piece of high tech. It's just a plastic case with the bulbs and a timer. So far so good. Al

Sorry... I do not know. I too liked the looks of it and bought it, thinking it was a complete lamp. Especially considering the price. When it arrived, it was useless to me without a lamp housing, so I returned it. Seller could have saved us a lot of time by providing a better description.

China. And they are amazing. Had the same bulbs in since last Summer & was only ever turned off to move recently. Works excellently & never gets hot to the touch, even when on 24/7. I'm using three 13 watt CFL bulbs, if that helps..? Excellent build quality over all, tho admittedly, even tho the packaging is secure for the item, still kinda shoddy overall, IMO. Other than that, you really can't go wrong with these. Love both of mine!

I have no idea but the products they are selling don't work. The ends fell off while I was trying to install. I went through all 16 bulbs I purchased and they all did not even attempt to power up.
