Is this the same bulb as the one sold by Epson? meaning is it the original product?

No, it is not the original product. It has a faint beeping noise until it is fully warmed up, but the product works and is a lot cheaper.

Looked the same, but seems to be working better. At least it has not burned out yet.

I do not believe it is the same bulb as the one that is sold by Feit Electric, but it is similar.

Our listing of this projector lamp is the Original Lamp from Sony. It's the same as the lamp that came with your projector when it was new.

The one I received in the mail was an actual Sharp brand bulb and was noticeably better than the other off-brands; however, I've seen comments here by others saying the bulb they received was not OEM, so I don't know what's up with that.

This is a Mitsubishi bulb. I'm not sure if we bought the same one, it looks the same. These bulbs seem to go out more often than others. We have had to replace ours four times in as many years. We received one that just didn't work upon arrival and the shipper and Amazon sent another with no charge and in record time. Thanks, Dan

I didn't see Sony printed anywhere so I assume it is an aftermarket. Most of the bulbs offered were running about $39. I tried the $50 bulb and it worked.

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.

Yes, it's the same one but the quality must be different for the bulb not to last as long as the original..

I am not sure, but I paid only $39.99 and the dealer was going to charge me $230, so I thought I would take a chance. All the reviews were positive and the bulb looked exactly like the original equipment one.

I don't recall seeing Philips on the bulb, but did not inspect it that closely as it was in the housing when it arrived. As I indicated in review, the housing was equivalent if not identical to original. So far, working well.

I don't know; I sent the bulb back because it was NOT an Osram branded bulb. The description implied that it was.

This bulb is not OEM as far as I could tell. However, it is much better quality than other bulbs on amazon. Picture is very bright. Had mine for awhile now and no problems.

From what I understand, Phillips is the OEM manufacturer for these bulbs. I believe this brand is a Phillips branded bulb. If it's not, then I am still impressed with the quality thus far.

I purchased this in March, 2010. I don't recall having any trouble with it. I can only assume it is the actual one manufactured and sold by Epson. Keep in mind that this is standard capacity and you won't get as much "mileage" out of it as you would the high capacity cartridges (which are a bit more expensive). I've since been purchasing the high capacity cartridges at Staples, Walmart, or Target, depending on who has the better price at any time.

Yes, I believe this is the genuine OEM product. There is another inexpensive supplier I also bought from whose cartridges leak when opening, but they work just as well. I believe this supplier is the genuine one.

It is the same as fit but it is not as goid as an original mitsubishi lamp. But the originals are more expensive. I use aftermarket lamps myself and they are ok..

Yes. We have had no problems with it. Have bought the same bulb in the past.
