STEP 1: Buy the right lamp

It’s important to install a genuine ASK Proxima SP-LAMP-001 lamp. Avoid generic knock-offs or lamps advertised as “compatible.” Although they appear to be a great bargain, generic lamps actually have a shorter life span and give off poor illumination. These lamps are prone to explosion and have been created using toxic substances such as Krypton-85. Using a counterfeit generic lamp will void any warranty for your ASK DP800 projector.

Buying from an authorized seller of genuine projector lamps ensures installation of a lamp created with the proper components and workmanship that works properly with the key components in your projector. Genuine lamps will give you the sharpest and brightest picture. Learn how to spot a counterfeit lamp.
