Optoma EX551 180W projector lamp

The Optoma EX551 is a new 180W replacement projector lamp module that includes a P-VIP bulb pre-assembled in its housing. It is designed for users who need a ready-to-install light source for compatible Optoma projectors.

Installation and common issues

The lamp ships fully assembled so installation only requires opening the projector's lamp door, removing the old module and sliding the new one into place. The most frequent problem is forgetting to reset the projector's lamp-hour counter after fitting the new unit, which can leave the replacement warning active.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This lamp suits owners of Optoma projectors that accept the EX551 module and want a genuine-compatible 180W P-VIP light source rated for 5,000 hours in normal mode or 6,000 hours in economy mode. It is not for buyers whose projectors require a different lamp model or wattage.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the lamp is performing correctly once installed?

The projector should ignite without flicker and run at full brightness; the internal timer will log up to 5000 hours in normal mode or 6000 hours in economy mode before replacement is recommended.

What ships with the module and what must I source myself?

The module arrives as a fully assembled 180W P-VIP bulb inside its housing, ready to install; no extra cables, filters or tools are included.

Which version of the EX551 lamp should I select?

Four versions exist: the original OEM bulb maker's lamp, the Optoma-branded OEM lamp, an alternative OEM maker's lamp, and a third-party compatible built with genuine OEM parts — all meet ISO9001 quality checks.
