{"product_id":"et-lav200-projector-lamp-module","title":"ET-LAV200 projector lamp with module","description":"\u003cp\u003eET-LAV200 is the lamp Panasonic specifies across an especially wide slice of its VW and VX projector ranges — 40 models including the VW430, VW431D, VW435N, VW440, VX45, VX500, VX501 and VX505N families, plus the BX50C to BX55NC. At 280 watts it's supplied complete with housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome references list this lamp as ET-LAV200C rather than ET-LAV200, particularly against C-suffix models like the BX50C — both codes order the identical part. With 40 projectors sharing one lamp, it's worth checking your exact model, since VW430 and VW431 series numbers are easy to confuse at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e — 280 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated life\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2,500 hours\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e — Projector Lamp with Module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSKU\u003c\/strong\u003e — LA-09935\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — 40 projector models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between ET-LAV200 and ET-LAV200C?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey're alternative codes for the same lamp and housing — Panasonic and its distributors have used both against different models on this fitment list, including the C-suffix BX50C to BX55NC projectors, so either code orders correctly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this lamp fit the VW431D as well as the VW430?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the PT-VW431D, PT-VW431DE, PT-VW431DEA and PT-VW431DU are all on the confirmed 40-model fitment list for ET-LAV200, alongside the standard PT-VW430 and PT-VW440 ranges — the D suffix marks a slightly different lens configuration, not a different lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is a lamp shared across 40 different projector models?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePanasonic's VW430 to VX510 business and education projectors were built across several years on a common optical platform, with model differences mainly in resolution and brightness rather than the lamp itself, which is why one code covers so many.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the rated wattage and lamp life here?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's a 280-watt lamp rated for around 2500 hours of use, which sits toward the middle of Panasonic's business projector range in both output and expected service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a bare-bulb version of ET-LAV200 available?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis particular listing is the complete module with housing included.
