Replacement lamp module for Optoma projectors

The OPTOMA SP.72701GC01 is a 260W projector lamp supplied as a complete bulb-and-housing assembly. It arrives ready for direct installation without additional tools or alignment steps. This unit suits owners of compatible Optoma projectors who need a straightforward replacement when the original lamp reaches end of life.

OEM and compatible versions available

Depending on stock, the module ships as an OEM lamp from the original bulb manufacturer, the same lamp sold under the Optoma brand, an alternate OEM source, or a third-party compatible built with genuine OEM parts. The choice lets buyers match the original specification or select a lower-cost alternative that still meets ISO9001 quality checks for ignition, voltage and run-time.

3,000-hour rated life under standard use

The P-VIP 260W bulb is rated for 3,000 hours of operation, after which brightness and colour stability will decline. Actual lifespan varies with projector ventilation, power cycles and operating mode, so heavy daily use will reach the limit sooner than occasional presentations. The module does not extend the projector’s native lamp-hour counter or alter its cooling requirements.
