{"product_id":"rlc-071-projector-lamp","title":"RLC-071 bare projector lamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eTen Viewsonic models share the RLC-071 bare lamp, including the PJD6253, PJD6253W, PJD6383, PJD6553 and PJD6683 families along with the VS14195. Rated at 240 watts with a 3500-hour life, it is supplied as the bulb alone, for fitting into a housing that already works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith ten compatible projectors sharing one part number, it is worth reading the exact model code on your projector's label carefully, since a \"W\" or \"s\" suffix can mark a genuinely different variant even where the lamp itself is identical. RLC-071 is the figure to match, not the projector name alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e — 240 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated life\u003c\/strong\u003e — 3,500 hours\u003c\/li\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-10600\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e — 10 projector models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do the PJD6253, PJD6383 and PJD6553 all take the same lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eViewsonic built several PJD6000-series projectors on a shared optical platform, so a number of models across that range, including the ones you have named, use the identical RLC-071 lamp despite having different model numbers and features.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the lamp for the PJD6683ws different from the standard PJD6683?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, both are listed against RLC-071 in our records. The \"ws\" suffix on Viewsonic model names typically denotes a widescreen variant of the projector rather than a change to the lamp fitted inside it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does the VS14195 code refer to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVS14195 is one of the model codes Viewsonic uses for a projector in this compatible range, alongside the PJD-prefixed names. It takes the same RLC-071 lamp as the other nine models listed here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I fit this bare lamp myself across any of the ten models?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the fitting process is the same regardless of which of the ten compatible projectors you own, since they all use the identical RLC-071 lamp assembly and housing design. Always let the projector cool fully before opening the lamp bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does a lamp rated for 3500 hours sometimes need replacing sooner?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e3500 hours is the rated life under normal operating conditions, but heavy use in a warm room, dusty filters or running at maximum brightness can shorten that figure. Dimming or flickering before the counter reaches 3500 hours is usually a sign it is time to replace.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182603940076,"sku":"LA-10600","price":137.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/24798-lg.png?v=1786958019","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/rlc-071-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
