Is there a laser projector out there for $3,000?

I have a BenQ LK970 laser projector. It is starting to give me problems. I got it directly from BenQ refurbished for $3,500. Is there a laser projector out there that will last for 25,000 hours and give me as good a picture as my LK970? It doesn't have to be a BenQ projector. Thanks for your time guys!

Set price alert with Keepa. It used to go down to $3150 around last Black Friday:

Hisense is 3k lumens Brightness, vs your current Benq 5k - 3k should be plenty for a dark room/home theater, but your room isn't dark, then 3k might not cut it for you. Besides, the original MSRP on LK970 was $8000.
It's apples and oranges vs your budget of 3k

I don't want a short throw projector. Sorry I didn't mention that first! Any others you could recommend?

So would this Epson LS 12000 outperform my LK970?

Not in terms of brightness, but in terms of overall picture quality.

If you want the 5000-lumen, then I would get something like the Epson EB-PU1006 6000-lumen PJ.

How would this projector compare to my BenQ LK 970?:

I don't need a bright projector I have a dark room.
