Getting to know the lamp hour
When the projector is in operation, the duration (in hours) of lamp usage is automatically 
calculated by the built-in timer. The method of calculating the equivalent lamp hour is as 
follows:
Total (equivalent) lamp hour= 20/9 * (hours used in Normal mode) + 5/3 * (hours used in 
Eco mode) + 20/13 * (hours used in SmartEco)+1 * (hours used in LampSave)
