The same projector was also sold as the Kindermann KXD165 and the Viewsonic PJ558 and PJ558D, and all of them share this one lamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eViewsonic listed its version of this bulb as RLC-023, and other resellers have used the codes 8954 or P6984-1007; all four numbers describe the identical lamp as VLT-XD420LP. Because this is a bare bulb, fit it into your existing housing rather than replacing the housing itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWattage\u003c\/strong\u003e — 230 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRated life\u003c\/strong\u003e — 2,000 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-09343\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\u003eMy projector is a Viewsonic PJ558, not a Mitsubishi — is RLC-023 the right lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. Viewsonic's PJ558 and PJ558D were built on the same platform as the Mitsubishi XD420, and RLC-023 is Viewsonic's own code for what Mitsubishi lists as VLT-XD420LP. Either number refers to the same bulb.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Kindermann KXD165 the same lamp as the Mitsubishi XD420?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, the KXD165 is Kindermann's rebadge of the Mitsubishi XD420 platform, and it takes the identical VLT-XD420LP lamp. Check your old bulb for any of the alternative codes 8954 or P6984-1007 if you're unsure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the difference between the MD-350X and the PM-343x?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth are Mitsubishi boardroom projector models built on the same XD420 platform and both use the VLT-XD420LP lamp, so the model name difference does not affect which bulb you need.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I reuse my current housing with this bare lamp?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, that's the purpose of a bare lamp: you keep the housing, cage and connector from your XD420, SD420 or PJ558, and only the bulb itself is replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the four codes 8954, P6984-1007, RLC-023 and VLT-XD420LP genuinely interchangeable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, they were issued by different brands and resellers for the same underlying lamp. Matching any one of them against your old bulb is enough to confirm this is the correct part.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lamps Authority","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48182615900396,"sku":"LA-09343","price":210.82,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0844\/5535\/8700\/files\/generic-bigbulb.png?v=1786970157","url":"https:\/\/www.lampsauthority.com\/products\/vlt-xd420lp-projector-lamp","provider":"Lamps Authority","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
