FS: Ushio NSHA250JK Bulb for JVC PK-L2615U (RS400/RS500/RS600 etc)
I'm selling brand new Ushio NSHA250JK 265W bare bulbs. These can be installed in the JVC PL-L2615U/L2615UP lamp housing which is used in all recent JVC projectors (DLA-RS-400, RS-420, RS-440, RS-500, RS-520, RS-540, RS-600, RS-620, RS-640, X550, X750, X950 etc). The same bulb is also used in the new native 4K models, in a completely different different housing (PK-L2618U); see the last picture attached.

Note that this is the 265W version of the Ushio lamp; older JVC projectors use 220W or 230W versions.

The cost is $110 USD plus $15 tracked shipping to US or Canada. Item will be shipped from Canada.

The bulb can also be drop-shipped from the supplier, in which case the cost would be $110 USD including shipping, but will have to be pre-paid (3 weeks delivery time).

Installation instructions: It's relative easy to install the bulb into an existing housing. The only tools required are a Philips screwdriver and a pair of tweezers.

It's best to work with the lamp in the orientation shown in the picture once the 4 retaining screws are removed, as otherwise some parts may fall out.

To remove the old bulb:
- Remove screw 1 and the metal bracket that it holds. This is not strictly necessary but gives more ready access to the following steps.
- Remove the two screws 2 that hold the wires to the bulb terminals. Remember which wire goes where.
EDIT (Courtesy of forum member Dreamliner): There is a small spring that is held in place by the power connector, see the last attachment Power_Connector_Spring.jpg. If it falls out, please make sure you re-insert it before putting the power connector in place.
- Remove the four screws 3 (two shown in picture, two more at the back) that hold the brackets clamping the lamp to the housing. Lift up the four brackets, remembering the order. Lift up the bulb. There are more brackets underneath; do not remove those.

To install the new bulb, reverse these steps. Make sure when inserting the brackets, the little alignment pin poke through the hole. Also make sure all brackets are resting flush against the plastic housing, before tightening the screws. If necessary, reseat the lamp so that the brackets rest flush. Make sure the screws are snug but do not over-tighten them.

So I could have a spare on the shelf, ready to go with one of your bulbs installed, I just wrote to JVC's parts distributor asking about buying the housing without a bulb. No go.

Does it make sense to shop for a cheapie replacement bulb+housing for the RS1000/N5/NX5 - RS2000/N7/NX7 - RS3000/N9/NX9 series, assuming the bulb will be worn out, just to have a housing for one of your new bulbs?

The same bulb is also used in the new native 4K models (DLA-RS2000, DLA-NX7 etc), in a completely different different housing. The bulb replacement procedure is essentially the same; see the last four pictures attached.

Note that this is the 265W version of the Ushio lamp; older JVC projectors use 220W or 230W versions.

The cost is $110 USD plus $15 tracked shipping to US or Canada. Item will be shipped from Canada.

Alternatively the bulb can also be drop-shipped from the supplier, in which case the cost would be $110 USD including shipping, but will have to be pre-paid (3 weeks delivery time). This is the option I recommended for those outside North America, as the shipping cost would otherwise be uneconomical.

There are more brackets underneath; do not remove those. Also note the small U-shaped spring in the upper right corner, which is intended to prevent the bulb from moving laterally.

Also make sure all brackets are resting flush against the plastic housing, before tightening the screws. If necessary, reseat the lamp so that the brackets rest flush.

Hi Dominic,


I am interested in purchasing a bulb for my JVC RS440 projector. I don't have enough post so my email is : [email protected]

Is there any special precaution that needs to be taken when installing this new bulb in the original housing?
