BL-FP240C is a bare replacement bulb built for three related Optoma short throw projectors: the OP268ST, W306ST and X306ST. No wattage or rated hours figure is published for this lamp, so this listing focuses on what is confirmed — the models it fits and how it is fitted.
The lamp is also listed under the code SP.8TU01GC01, which may appear on some Optoma documentation for these short throw models. Being sold bare, it is fitted into the housing already inside your OP268ST, W306ST or X306ST rather than arriving with a new cage.

Common questions
Why are short throw projectors like the W306ST fitted with a specific lamp?
Short throw models place the lamp closer to the lens assembly to achieve a large image from a short distance, which affects the housing shape and heat management. BL-FP240C is built to that specific short throw housing.
Does this bulb fit the Optoma X306ST as well as the W306ST?
Yes, the X306ST, W306ST and OP268ST all share this same lamp. These three models differ mainly in resolution and colour output rather than in their lamp hardware.
What is SP.8TU01GC01?
It is an alternative code for this same bulb, likely used interchangeably on some Optoma part listings for the OP268ST family. Either reference, BL-FP240C or SP.8TU01GC01, will order the identical replacement bulb.
Since no hours figure is published, how do I know when to replace it?
Watch for a noticeably dimmer or discoloured image, or for the projector's own lamp warning indicator, which is the more reliable signal in the absence of a published rated life.
Is fitting a bare bulb into a short throw housing more difficult?
Not typically — the access panel and release mechanism work the same way as on standard throw models. Let the projector cool fully first, since short throw housings sit close to other internal components.
This is a bare lamp — the bulb only. You reuse the housing already fitted in your projector.
