Can you turn the power down to your lamp? My old EIKI Xenon pedestal was a power pig. I tested it when I bought it and could run with max power to the lamp. When I got it home, it couldn't...the plug was too far from the fuze panel & I had to turn the lamp power down to run the projector.
Also, if you can find one to borrow, try a contact voltage regulator to help stabilize your power to see if that helps.
In theory all projectors that are the same model should work the same, in reality, they can all be slightly different.
Hi Wayne, no the EX2000A has fixed xenon power output so it's on full all the time. That's a good point. I think there's a variable pot on what I think is a small xenon control circuit board inside the case, but it's been glued so it's held in one position, so I don't want to alter it in case I break it or stuff up the settings. I can try the control circuit board out of my other EX2000A projector and see if that helps. That's what I will do. I also suspect one or more of the power diodes or capacitors may be at fault but they seemed to test ok.
Thankyou for your help. Please let me know if you think of anything else it could be.
Regards,
Frank.
