There are two types of projection...


CRT- these have three large CRT's- Red, Green and Blue. Exactly like a standard TV, just alot bigger. Lifespan approx 10,000 hours
Expensive to replace each CRT.


LCD- a bright bulb shines through a LCD panel. Bulb lifespan approx 5,000 hours. About £300 each. Also LCD matrix pixel death, and eventual failure of the panel.

Toshiba RPTV are CRT.

Aprrox how much would CRT cost to replace then please?

Cheers
 
Just out of interest how long should standard TV last then
 
Approx £1000 for a set of tubes.

How long does a normal TV last? 10 years+

I think you're worrying too much! LCD has a higher running cost, because of bulb replacement and possible matrix failure.
