Philips GARBO projector lamp
The Philips GARBO takes lamp LCA3116, a 132 W lamp rated for 6,000 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. Philips 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.
Which lamp does the Philips GARBO take?
The Philips GARBO uses LCA3116.
Should I buy the bare bulb or the module?
Both are available. The module is the bulb already fitted in its housing and is the quicker swap. The bare bulb is cheaper and re-uses your existing housing, but you move the bulb across yourself.
How long does the GARBO lamp last?
LCA3116 is rated for 6,000 hours at 132 W. Actual life depends on the lamp mode you run and how the projector is ventilated.
Does the same lamp fit other Philips projectors?
Yes. The same lamp also fits the Philips BSURE SV1, the Philips BSURE SV2, the Philips BTENDER, the Philips GARBO Home Cinema, the Philips GARBO Matchline, the Philips LC3031 and other Philips models listed on this page.
