Sony VPL-EX178 Replacement Lamp Module
This new 210W replacement lamp module is built for the Sony VPL-EX178 projector. It arrives as a fully assembled bulb and housing unit, identified by Sony model number LMPE211, so installation is straightforward without extra tools.
UHP Lamp Life in Normal and Economy Modes
The Philips UHP 210W bulb delivers 2500 hours in Normal mode and 4500 hours in Economy mode. Brightness and runtime are bound by these two fixed settings; there is no user-adjustable power level beyond the projector's own menu options.
Upgrade from a Dim or Expired Original Lamp
This module replaces the factory lamp when image brightness has faded or the projector signals end of life. The jump is worth it when the current lamp has reached its rated hours or when colour uniformity has drifted beyond acceptable limits.
