{"product_id":"725-bbdo-projector-lamp","title":"725-BBDO bare projector lamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Dell 1850 takes a bare bulb listed here as 725-BBDO, supplied without a housing for fitting into the one already in your projector. No wattage or rated-hours figure is published for this part, so we've kept the listing to what's confirmed: fit, part number and housing compatibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis bulb is also referenced as M39M7 on some records, describing the same part. Since this is a bare bulb rather than a module, you'll need to fit it into your current housing yourself - if that housing is cracked or the socket is scorched, a module version is worth considering instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e — Bare Projector Lamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU\u003c\/strong\u003e — LA-11352\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2 projector models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs 'Dell1850' a typo or a different model from the 1850?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's the same Dell 1850 projector, simply written without a space in some records rather than being a separate model.

The part number, fit and housing type are all confirmed as shown above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I remove the old bulb from the Dell 1850's housing?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bulb is usually held in the housing by two small screws and a connector clip, both accessible once the housing is out of the projector. Support the housing while removing the screws so the bulb doesn't drop out unexpectedly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's a sensible way to check I'm buying the correct lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMatch the part number printed inside your projector's lamp door, if visible, against 725-BBDO or its alternative code M39M7. If neither number appears, confirming the projector model against the Dell 1850 is the next best check.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182653518060,"sku":"LA-11352","price":132.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/generic-bigbulb.png?v=1786970157","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/725-bbdo-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
