{"product_id":"st38557-projector-lamp","title":"ST38557 bare projector lamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Smartboard UX80 and UX80HD both take this bare lamp, sold under the code ST38557 and also listed as 1018740. Supplied without a housing, it is designed to fit into the cage and housing already inside your projector. Only these two models are listed as compatible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA module version of the same lamp is sold separately under the part number 1018740, complete with its own housing, which is worth choosing if your UX80's existing housing shows wear. This bare listing suits projectors whose housing is still sound, since only the burner and cage are replaced. Whichever code shows on your old lamp, ST38557 or 1018740, this bare version is the match.\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-10317\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 1018740 the same lamp as ST38557?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, both codes identify the same lamp for the UX80 and UX80HD; ST38557 is this bare listing, while 1018740 also names the equivalent module version with housing included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this lamp fit the standard UX80 and the HD version?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the UX80 and UX80HD share the same bare lamp, so there is no separate part needed for the HD model, and the same code applies regardless of which resolution you own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I buy the bare lamp or the module for my UX80HD?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChoose the bare lamp if your current housing is undamaged and simply needs a new bulb; choose the module, 1018740, if the housing itself needs replacing too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 'original' mean when this lamp is described as original?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt means the bulb inside matches the specification the projector was designed for, rather than a generic substitute; we do not use the term to claim manufacturer branding on the housing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I handle the lamp when fitting it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHold it by the base or cage rather than the glass, and fit it with the UX80 powered off and given time to cool first.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182628778220,"sku":"LA-10317","price":190.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/31674-lg.png?v=1786959353","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/st38557-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
