The Sanyo POA-LMP42 (service part 610-292-4831) should last between 1,000 to 3,000 hours. The exact lifespan of a genuineany Sanyo POA-LMP42 will vary depending on how much your projector is used and how regularly the air filters are cleaned. (Clogged air filters cause the projector to heat up and this puts stress on the lamp.)

If you’re using a  knock-off lamp you can expect far less time. In fact, you may be putting your projector at risk using these generic brands. Not only do they not last as long, they can damage the inside mechanism in your projector. Installing knock-off lamps also voids the warranty on your projector and should these lamps explode or cause any damage you’ll not be covered. Walk away from lamps with a price tag that seems too good to be true. The few dollars you save are not worth, especially if the knock-off explodes inside your computer. Learn the 7 tips for spotting counterfeits lamps and protect yourself.
