How often does the UV light need to be replaced, and how much does it cost?

Also, cost about $25 t0 $30 from iSpring. Free shipping and cheaper by the pair. They also sell sets of 3 years of filters except for the UV lamp. Best deal I have found.

Annually or earlier if it is placed first in lime which it should not be. Trust the engineers that designed it. If it is placed first the UV chamber will become coated with impurities in the water thus blocking the UV light from working.

We have upgraded the lighting system for this model. It now comes with 20,000 hours of bulb life, and you donot need a replacement in 10 years. If you really need one, you can buy from us at $45

There is no bulb replacement for this lamp. The bulb has a 40,000 hour rating, which should be good for several (approximately 20) years of service, even at 8 hours per day. Unless you have a bad bulb, the cost of the lamp should be just over a dollar per year. Even at half that rated bulb life, it's still a very inexpensive item. The cost of a replacement bulb could easily exceed the price of this entire lamp. It is just as likely that the switch or the power supply will go bad before the bulb's life is ended. That's my opinion.

I've had them for more than two years now. The effectiveness of the UV light doesn't seem to be affected with buildup although I change the light every year. The filtering is on the weak side.

I've seen warranties of 180 days (6 months) to one year. It depends on the seller. In using the Philips lamps I've never had one last less than 6000 hours or about 4 years worth of viewing at 5 hours a day.

The light is suppose to last longer than a month. I know it's suppose to have a year warranty on it. I've seen customers have them last a couple months, maybe up to a year. It just depends.

I did too, cannot find at any store. I called the company and they directed me to a website usadvancedhealthcare.com type in replacement bulb for UV toothbrush, it doesn't all fit in search line but it takes you to the correct item. it's $4.99 plus I think it was $2 shipping. not to bad. I spent a month looking for a replacement, so just order it and be done with it.

The lights are rated for 50,000 hours of use, or over 5 and a half years. The entire light would have to be replaced at that time unfortunately.

I have had mine for over a year and use it routinely. I have yet had to replace a bulb.

It uses an LED lamp, so it should last upwards of 50,000 hours. You probably won't ever have to replace it; at 4 hours of use every day it will last you over 30 years.

The bulb inside cannot be replaced. So, there is no uv bulbs availabel now.

Yes the bulb can be replaced. And there is a switch to turn off the uv light on top of the lid of the fitler

Varies depending on use (for instance, how often backlight is turned on) but I would say on average 3 years or so. Your local jeweler should be able to replace it.

The life of the lamp is 30000 hours based on specification given on Asus website. I don't think lamp is replaceable, moreover you will never need replacement, till the time you need replacement, you will be technologically compelled to buy a new projector.

I think the warranty only extends to 1 year. You would have to purchase an entire new light.

I just had my first bulb go bad and as it turns out Amazon honors the return for 30 days! I think a $13.51 light bulb should have a bit better warranty on it than that. I've got incodescent bulbs that have lasted for years and only cost peniies to replace. Time to contact support and see what they say. Update: I contacted SunSun at info@sunsunlighting.com, they responded the next day, requested the invoice from my purchase, and shipped me a replacement bulb UPS. That's pretty good customer service any way you look at it.
