the projector runs the show October 21, 2006

I think I’ve found the projector I want to acquire for 48 Hour Run @ Normal Space: a Lumenlab pre-made-but-DIY-driven projector that supports component, s-video, tv (coax) and vga signal. Inputs aside, the main reason to acquire this projector over many others is the $30 replacement bulb. Yes, only $30! Whereas most Sony or InFocus or other manufacturer’s bulbs cost around $300 to replace (meaning after replacing two bulbs you could have bought a new projector!), LumenLab claims to have found a way to use a $30 lamp to produce approximately 6000 hours of lamplife at 1000 lumens. Of course those aren’t too many lumens, and the unit only supplies a 600:1 contrast ratio, but for the cost and for affordable art projects, this projector should run the show!
