If you have 100W ballast, the lamp + adapter probably won't work unless you purchase a 100/120W lamp. You should have asked to speak with the manager. Ali, over at Discount-Merchant.com is a pretty great guy. I know they have a separate technical support and sales staff and you were probably speaking to someone new. That’s unfortunate Adrian.

You'll have to pull it out and then call the vendor to tell them, UNLESS you want to buy the whole enclosure. I think the original idea was that they'd try to sell you the whole unit for X amount of dollars and never expected to be seeing bare lamps on the market.

I have a Samsung DLP HL-R5667WX/XAA. The lamp code on set is BP96-00826A(P). Does the above info on the set and lamp state which Phillips lamp (large or small) needs to be ordered? Also, can't I purchase the Phillips lamp (22 or 23)part number from somewhere and would it need to be "adapted" somehow or can I just install it? Thanks. Great site you have!

They are absolutely clueless about this and the person didn't even know what the PLA adapter is. I even tried to e-mail him a link to show him, but he said he doesn't have e-mail... WTF. I would like to upgrade to the new style bulb for my BP96-00224C with 100W ballast, but the customer service at discount-merchant.com is the worst I have ever seen. Guess I will have to buy a direct replacement from somewhere else.

Is there any reason why this PLA adapter will not work on my set? Will my set handle the smaller Philips bulb without stressing the PS and Ballast?
