I always replace the lamp and ballast the first go around, also educate the
customer on the proper use of the et. 

1. make sure there is a lot room around the unit for proper ventilation 

2. make sure the unit is not on a switched  outlet 

3. better to leave the unit on between shows if only 30 min to 2 hours a
part,  the cooling and heating of the lamp decrease the lamp life., 

4. don't move the tv after you turn it off because the lamp is very fragile,
give it a couple hours to cool 

5. Also put the unit on a U.P.S battery backup. So if you lose power the
lampstill have time to cool. then turn off set.
