Owners of the HC3200U, HC3800, HC3900, HC4000 and related HC77-10S and HC77-11S projectors all need the VLT-HC3800LP bulb. This listing supplies it as a bare lamp, rated at 230 watts with a 4000-hour life, ready to fit inside the housing your projector already has.
As a bare lamp, expect to open your current housing and carry the old bulb out before fitting this one, keeping any screws or retaining clips for reuse. VLT-HC3800LP is the single code that covers this whole HC3200U to HC4000U range, so there's no need to hunt for a model-specific variant.

Common questions
Does one lamp really cover the HC3200U through HC4000U models?
Yes, Mitsubishi used the VLT-HC3800LP bulb across the HC3200U, HC3800, HC3800U, HC3900, HC4000, HC4000U and the HC77-10S and HC77-11S, so a single part code applies to all of them.
What's the rated lamp life on the VLT-HC3800LP?
It carries a 4000-hour rating at 230 watts, the same figures Mitsubishi specifies for the lamp originally fitted to this HC3200U to HC4000U range of home cinema projectors.
Do I need any tools to swap the bulb into my existing housing?
Usually just a small screwdriver to release the retaining clips or screws holding the old bulb in its cage. Take care when handling the bulb itself, as the glass can be delicate.
How will I know the lamp is nearing the end of its life?
Watch for a dimmer image, a shift in colour balance, or a lamp warning indicator on the projector, and compare your unit's hour counter against the 4000-hour rating to judge when a replacement is due.
Is this the same lamp used in the HC77-11S business projector?
Yes, the HC77-11S uses the identical VLT-HC3800LP bulb as the HC3800 and HC4000 consumer models, so this one listing covers both the home and business versions of the projector.
