Sharp Electronics Extends Warranty on ALL XG and PG Model Rental Projectors
Sharp took a step ahead of the rest of the pack with their announcement last week that all XG and PG model rental projectors now carry a 3-year ER Express Repair Warranty.

Although extending warranties aren’t a big deal normally in the ProAV market, it makes a big deal in the rental market so we wanted you to be aware of this since it could (and should) affect your buying decisions in the future with LCD and DLP portable projectors for rental.
