Christie's LightTIME guarantee

With well-tested performance over the years, xenon lamps have been, for decades, the workhorse of the film industry, standing the test of time as a reliable lighting source that guarantees excellent control and brightness on screen. The value of xenon lamps is difficult to match, as their Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) remains lower than that of any other cinema lighting source, a factor of utmost importance for today's theaters.

The catalog of Christie xenon projectors offers the option of purchasing the lamps along with the projectors, so that all the lamps necessary to operate the projector during its warranty period are included in the purchase of the projector. To learn the details of this offer, and possible exceptions by geographic area, customers should contact their sales representative.

In terms of value, xenon lamp technology continues to provide significant performance, reliability and TCO to displays. Nowadays, the number of movie theaters has increased, and with them the number of xenon lamps. Generally speaking, for most of the world's displays, xenon and other RGB laser lighting systems are superior to other lighting systems in cost of ownership, contrast, color fidelity and reliability.
