Answer from justprojectorlamps.co.uk
Hello,
It depends on the characteristics of the projector lamp. There are 2 ways to find if your projector lamp reaches its end of life: it is turned off and also your projector, it explodes making a noise and breaks in the projector and obviously it does not light up. It is necessary that you clean the interior of the projector to remove broken glass before installing a new lamp. But it is also possible that the projector is damaged after the explosion. In any case, you must always remember to ventilate the room because the explosion will send out chemicals that may affect health.
For projectors with the LED which is flashing, the flashing is related to the average life rating for each lamp projector.When the counter of the projector indicates the maximum number, the light starts flashing. From that time, the lamp could still hold several hours and may not turn overnight. However, it is also possible that the lamp does not reach maximum life. The longevity of the lamp depends on the maintenance as we do.
Some projection devices send out a message telling you to change the lamp.
Best regards,
