What would happen if you used a 180W Lamp in this projector?

I would stick with the factory-recommended bulb, otherwise, the projector may either overheat or not perform satisfactorily.Al

I don't know and would not try - at best it might void the warranty - better not think of the worst! Why not ask the manufacturer? Would be the safest...

Check the product specs for this item at Amazon; this lamp takes a 100w 3 way bulb. So you can't exceed 100W. I'm using only a single 6w bulb in mine and it's fine.

Yes the 3000 watt AC Inverter is more than enough to run the 235 watt projector as long as you have enough battery to run it. I have a dual battery van that this is working on and it runs much heaver equipment than your projector.

I just got this exact projector model earlier this year so have not had it long enough for the lamp to be an issue. But, the projector works wonderfully in the picture is terrific better than my last projector. On these projectors many times you'll see warnings to replace the lamp but you don't have to. My last projector lamp lasted over 15,000 hours before it blewso I wouldn't replace it unless your picture has gotten poor or till it actually burns out

I think it primarily depends on your material. So long as it isn't opaque you should be good. I experimented with a few translucent materials such as plastic sheeting, a backyard awning and a bedsheet and it looked great from the other side. You are always going to lose some brightness but thankfully this projector has a higher lumen count. You might have to customize your settings and bump up the values of brightness and tweak some colors, but you should be good for rear projection.

The lamp has a warning label that says the bulb may only be a maximum of 190 watts, so a 300 watt bulb would violate the manufacturer's safety instructions and could very well pose a safety risk.

I just looked at the base of the bulb and it seems like it says 26 watts. Don't think that will exceed the maximum of your lamp.

the light will rotate 180 degrees in horizontal and 180 degrees in vertical it is almost unlimited

I used it 500 watt lamp and it worked fine. For stronger 1500 Watt, I am not sure.

Yep! I can't tell the difference (if projected in a dark room on a flat white background) the only downside is it runs at 1250 watts

as long as you power up the projector first, if plug in the source first you could get a scrambled or a frozen image

The description of the lamp says 60 W bulb, so it seems that 400 W would be an electrical hazard.

ya but i wouldn't i would turn it to 50% aka 299 watts and tbh...if i was to id try to hit 75% aka 432 watts for slight over clock but IT WILLL REDUCE BULB LIFE EITHER way you been warned

I would only use the maximum the lamps states. You might risk overheating and causing an electric short. The lamp is very reflective and should not need a 100 watt bulb.

You can use a heat bulb with this lamp, it just can not be above 160 watts.

300w bulbs will probably work for a little while but because of the heat produced by it,the lamp will not last and it would represent a fire hazard. 300w lamps were produced previously, but obviously, because of the hazard involved they are no longer available. DO NOT USE A 300W BULB IN A 190W LAMP!

I guess it would depend upon the wattage/heat output. I use mine with strobes that have a 100w modeling light with no problems. But, if you were using higher wattage tungsten (250-1000w) it may pose a fire hazard.
