I've been happily using my barco 1209 for a number of months, but in the past week it has started arcing. It doesn't seem that serious, but it worries me. It only happens once per session, and always about 2-3 minutes after starting the projector. I'll hear an arc and the screen will go blank and then immediately come back. It's then fine until I turn it off for enough time to completely cool down. Should I be concerned? If so, what should I check into?


Thanks!

Yes, be concerned, very concerned. HV is arcing somewhere. Call Drew Packard in Monroe, Wa. He's a forum member and can help you thru it along with me if you don't want to mess with 35 KV.
