Hitachi CP-RX78W projector lamp
The Hitachi CP-RX78W takes lamp DT01081, a 190 W lamp rated for 3,000 hours. It is available both as a complete module (bulb fitted in its housing) and as a bare bulb for re-using your existing housing.
The code printed on your old lamp or its housing should match one of the codes listed above. Hitachi and third-party suppliers sell the same lamp under several numbers.
The model number is on a label on the base or rear of the projector, and in the on-screen menu under Information. Still unsure? Send a photo of the old lamp and we'll confirm the match.
