Viewsonic VA16971 projector lamp
The Viewsonic VA16971 takes lamp RLC-111 . 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. Viewsonic 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 Viewsonic VA16971 take?
The Viewsonic VA16971 uses RLC-111.
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 VA16971 lamp last?
Rated life depends on the lamp mode you run and how the projector is ventilated; the lamp's own page lists the figure where the manufacturer publishes one.
Does the same lamp fit other Viewsonic projectors?
Yes. The same lamp also fits the Viewsonic PA501S, the Viewsonic PA502S, the Viewsonic PA502SP, the Viewsonic PA502X, the Viewsonic PA502XP, the Viewsonic PJB522S and other Viewsonic models listed on this page.
