Know before you buy
No, this is a bare bulb replacement. You will need to remove the old bulb from your existing housing and install this new one yourself.
This lamp is specifically designed for the Optoma EW860, EX855, and TW865 series. You should also verify that your current lamp part number matches BL-FU400A or SP.8LB04GC01.
Ushio is a leading manufacturer in projection technology and often supplies the original bulbs for major projector brands. This replacement meets the same performance standards for brightness and clarity as the factory-original component.
Handle the new bulb with care, ideally using gloves or a clean cloth to avoid getting oils from your skin on the glass, which can cause hot spots and premature failure. Ensure the power is disconnected and the projector has fully cooled before attempting the installation.
Yes, it is important to reset the lamp hour counter in your projector's menu settings after installation. This ensures the projector accurately tracks the lifespan of the new bulb and prevents premature 'replace lamp' warnings.
