Hi Will,
Best thing to do is visit: Discount-Merchant.com and search for: Philips Lamp Adatper (or just click below:)

Remember, you need to make sure your original lamp is a Philips or OSRAM. These are designated at the end of the lamp code by the “(O)” or “(P)”
You can find the lamp code on the side of your TV and on the lamp enclosure itself.
The “Big” lamp was primarily used in the older series TVs…such as the HLM, HLN, HLP, etc. I hope I’ve answered your question!

That’s the link for your model…
How do I order one of these lamps? I’ve heard lot’s of good things about your product and services. A buddy of mine was looking for a philips big lamp and he was told that they were sold out nationwide and they have been discontinued so got one of these lamps with the adapter. He said it was a lot cheaper than the generic big one they offered him from some other sites. Now his TV has been running smoother than original. He didn’t tell me where he bought it though.
Hey Tim,
Thanks for the kind remarks…we try!
We’re teamed up with Discount-Merchant.com to bring the Lamp Adapter to the public. It’s a patent pending design which will allow the newer 100W / 120W and 120W / 132W lamps to be used in the older generation TVs such as the HLM, HLN, TLP, and some of the HLR sets.
There are a few benefits to using the new lamp, but these are already outlined on this site.
To get a replacement lamp w/adapter, visit:
http://www.Discount-Merchant.com/?Click=1466 and use the “Search it” feature on the top left. Search for your model or lamp code and you should be all set! We are no longer selling the old “Big” lamps for reliability issues!
I hope I’ve answered your question, Tim.
Ayyy yo.. I need one of these lamps for the De La Hoya vs Mayweather fight… I’m in San Diego, CA as well. Is there a way I can pick one up somewhere locally today? PPPLLLLLEEEEEEAAAAAAASE
I’m having a party and the damn TV keeps shutting off after 3 minutes. Either that or I have to go to bestbuy and get another tv. PLEASE HELP!
Jamal,
Give Discount-Merchant.com a call at: 619-710-2637 x203. A customer service representative should be able to help you place the order. As far as I know, they do offer a pickup service in their retail outlet.
Good luck
HAVE AN HLN507W SAMSUNG DLP & am replacing the lamp with a Samsung BP96-00224(P). This is my second replacement lamp which was an LTI which only lasted 6 months. Original lasted about 3 years.
New lamp installed OK, but after some hours of use, the screen image showed bright white flashes, intermittently, with further detioration of the image as time goes on. Ideas?
Also, is the PLA adapter available separately for this lamp?
Thanks for your attention

I purchased the Phillips lamp only to find out that the I need also the adapter.
Do you sell the adapter separately?
Does this adaptor work on philips lcos
44pl9523/17 rear projection tv.
my lamp is square 120W
I have a philips LCOS rear proj. TV Mod# 44PL9523/17.
The bulb has been replaces several times and I keep getting change lamp message displayed. The bulb is square and 120W. Will this lamp (132 W) and adapter work in my set. I’m ready to get rid of this set and start again. The picture is fine, but the replace lamp message pops up every few minutes. I have reset the lamp timer per the philips manual with no luck…..thanks for your help!!
The question above, about the reset timer, did anyone have an answer? Mine is doing the exact same thing. Thanks for any help.
HEEELLLLPPPP!! I have an HLP6163WX/XAA with a lamp code of BP96-00608A. I ordered two bulbs in July because my original (large bulb) was starting to shut off. Now I must replace it. I went to install one of the new bulbs only to discover the “Universal Lamp Adapter” wasn’t included in the shipment. I can’t find any place on the site where I can order just the PLA. PUULLEEZZ help and tell me where I can get one. I’m dead in the water with a 61″ doorstop. >:-(
