Replacement lamp for Panasonic PT-VX500EA
This is a new 280W Ushio NSHA projector lamp module supplied with the bulb already fitted in its housing. It is intended for owners of the PT-VX500EA who need a direct, ready-to-install replacement when the original lamp reaches end of life. The unit is manufactured to ISO9001 quality standards and undergoes checks for beam performance, ignition, voltage, appearance, connections and run-time before dispatch.
280W output with two economy settings
In normal mode the lamp is rated for 2500 hours of use, while economy mode extends the rating to 4000 hours. The higher setting delivers maximum brightness for well-lit rooms or large screens; the lower setting reduces power draw and heat, buying extra hours for less demanding presentations. There is no intermediate mode, so users must choose between peak output and maximum longevity.
Swaps the original ET-LAV200 module
This lamp replaces the factory ET-LAV200 assembly without modification. The jump is worth it when the existing lamp dims, flickers or triggers a replacement warning, restoring full brightness and the rated hour count. It is not for users whose projector requires a different wattage or connector, nor for those seeking a bare bulb without the housing.
