Acer H6510BD Projector – Warranty

Acer provides a 1 year parts and labor warranty on the H6510 projector.  That is typical for under $1000 projectors although there are a few with two years and even three year warranties out there, for those concerned.

An extended warranty, or purchasing your projector with a credit card that offers an extended warranty is worth considering.  Figuring prices drop significantly ever two years, with better gear for less, the trick is not to get hit with a repair bill in your first two years.  I have an American Express card that adds a year, which would work great for me.

It’s your call.  Ultimately projectors are pretty darn reliable, especially a 2nd generation model like the H6510, who’s hardware is basically the same as last year’s H6500 projector.

I don’t have much I can comment on regarding Acer support and service, but when Acer launched the H9500BD last year, with some quirky firmware, they came through with a fix in a reasonable timeframe, more than many can claim.

Bottom line on warranty – has a typical 1 year parts and labor – acceptable, but nothing to write home about.
