{"product_id":"acto-lw8180-projector-lamp","title":"Acto LW8180 bare projector lamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Acto LW8180 takes this bare bulb, listed by projector name because no manufacturer part code has been published for it. As a bare lamp, it supplies the bulb only, to be fitted inside the housing your LW8180 already has rather than a new cage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCheck that your projector's model reads LW8180 before ordering, since there is no code here to confirm the match. Once the old bulb has been removed, look over its housing for scorching or cracked plastic before fitting the replacement bulb into the same cage.\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-08066\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — 1 projector models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this lamp shared with any other Acto LW model?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, this bulb is listed specifically for the LW8180. Other LW models, such as the LW6100, have their own separate listings, so always match your exact projector name before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the LW8180 lamp come as a full module?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis particular listing is a bare bulb only. It fits into the housing already installed in your LW8180 rather than arriving with a new cage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow can I tell if it's the bulb that's failed rather than something else?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA projector that powers on but shows no image, or displays a lamp fault light, usually points to the bulb. Persisting issues after fitting a new one would suggest checking the connection or power supply instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy isn't a lamp life rating shown?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo hours figure is currently published for the LW8180's bulb, so none is listed rather than estimated. A gradually dimming image is the more practical sign that a replacement is due.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat precautions should I take when fitting the new bulb?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAllow the LW8180 to cool fully first, avoid touching the bulb's glass with bare hands, and seat it in the housing in the same orientation as the bulb you removed before closing the cage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182675701996,"sku":"LA-08066","price":370.3,"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\/acto-lw8180-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
