Direct replacement for Hitachi 50V720
The Philips LC-57 lamp is designed specifically for the Hitachi 50V720 DLP television. It restores original brightness when the factory lamp reaches end of life. Installation follows the manufacturer's service procedure for that model.
Fits the existing lamp housing without modification
The unit slides into the original cage used by the UX-21517 module, so no adapter or wiring changes are required. Replacing the lamp frees the optical engine from dimming and colour shift caused by an aged bulb.
Runs at 100-120 watts with 6000-hour rated life
Normal operation stays within the set's designed thermal envelope and the cooling fan profile remains unchanged. Power draw matches the original specification, keeping electricity cost and audible noise at the levels the TV was engineered for.

Questions about this item
At what point does the 100-120 watt lamp reach its 6000-hour rated lifespan under daily use?
The Philips UHP UltraBrite lamp is rated for 6000 hours of operation. At four hours per day that equals roughly four years before brightness drops to half.
How much heat and fan noise does the 100-120 watt assembly add when the TV runs all day?
The lamp draws 100-120 watts, so the TV’s existing cooling system handles the heat. No extra fan or noise is introduced by the replacement module itself.
Which existing TV component must be reused when installing this LC-57 module in the 50V720?
The bare bulb cage inside the 50V720 is retained; only the Philips UHP lamp cartridge is swapped, matching the original UX-21517 specification.
