Complaint Review: Electrified Discounters Inc.

Electrified discounters sells lamps for projectors that are defective.  The bulbs will only last 200 hours if that.  You pay over $300 dollars for a bulb which should last 2000 hours and you only get 10% of the expected lifespan.  They will send you a replacement if it fails within 90 days but the replacement lamp they send you is only warranted from the original purchase date and not the date they send the replacement bulb.  This allows them to send you defective bulbs that only last 200 hours or less.  You will never get over 200 hours on their lamps because they are cheap junk from China.  There is a big difference between the bulb the manufacturers supply with a projector and the ones they sell.  They have a small pre-heater element that wraps around the bulb, this is what fails.  The element is similar to a filament in a light bulb.  Since it is not in an inert atmosphere like a light bulb is oxidizes very quickly and fails.  Once the pre-heating element fails the actual lamp it is wrapped around fails in a two or three starts.  They know this as it has happened to many of their customers who have complained just look at their BBB report or the RipOff reports on them.  Bottom line these clowns sell junk for big$$$ and get away with it saying its is out of warranty.  DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THESE JERKS OR YOU WILL BE RIPPED OFF!!!!!!!!!!!
