I know the bulb should cool down. Thats why I
need the the thermostat. The way I work it now
is when I turn it off, I need to put in standby
so the fan cools it down. However, in standby,
the fan never shuts off even after the lamp has
cooled so I have to wait until the lamp cools
and then hit the physical power switch.
Are you sure the fan never turns off? have you tried waiting it out? the blower on my gas fireplace remains on for a LONG time after shutting off the flame. i'm sure it's to transfer as much residual heat into the room, but i know darn well that after 15 minutes, there is no more heat in that fireplace. my darn blower runs for at least 45 minutes before it shuts down. unless your projectors manual specifically states that the fan will remain on, try giving it at least an hour or two. JMHO :0)
