OPTOMA BL-FP280H projector lamp 280W

Ready-to-install lamp module

This Optoma BL-FP280H replacement module ships as a complete bulb-and-housing assembly so you can swap it in without handling the bare lamp. The 280W P-VIP bulb is pre-aligned in the cage, eliminating the alignment steps that cause premature failures. Installation typically takes only a few minutes with basic hand tools.

Simple swap with one common pitfall

Remove the old module, insert the new one until it seats firmly, and reset the projector’s lamp-hour counter through the on-screen menu. The most frequent issue is forgetting to reset that counter, which leaves the replacement lamp flagged as expired and can trigger an unnecessary shutdown.

Verify exact model match before ordering

Confirm your projector’s service documentation lists BL-FP280H as the correct part number; similar Optoma models use different lamp codes that will not fit or ignite properly. Also check whether your unit requires the 3,000-hour normal mode or the 4,500-hour economy mode rating to match your typical usage pattern.
