The Home Cinema 2045 uses RF active-shutter 3D, not DLP-Link glasses. The safest route is Epson’s V12H548006; the alternatives below are older RF/Bluetooth models with specific 2045 compatibility evidence. This is a legacy-accessory market, so test one pair before buying a family set and avoid listings that merely say ‘active 3D.’

Buying tips
- The 2045 needs RF active-shutter glasses; DLP-Link models for Optoma or BenQ projectors are not substitutes.
- Play known 3D material, enable the projector’s 3D mode, then pair one new pair before ordering multiples.
- For used glasses, inspect hinges, charging cable and battery life during the return window.
