I presume that the answer to my question is "no". - It's not possible. Under no circumstances. Don't even think about it. You're going down the wrong road, in the wrong direction. Don't ask questions like that.
I realize that there are complexities in the design and manufacture of these bulbs and bulb housings. But I always thought that the underlying goal/purpose of modern engineering was ongoing improvement in both quality and and cost factors. But I'm suspecting that somehow there isn't much incentive for cost reductions among projector manufacturers.
Do I detect a note of defensiveness with respect to this issue? Like, we don't want to admit we are being screwed?
