Hey thanks for the video! its great. um, just wondering, im building one and wanted to know the easiest way to hook it up to things besides a comp, u think an adapter directly from cable? or maybe through the computer? or a dvd player? im stumped...
the video was awesome learned a lot just one question wat waz the distance btwn the projector and the screen where the pic was displayed and wat waz the size of the screen?
I just wanted you to know that I find this INCREDIBLE! I will try it out definitly! Thanks for the video... I want so much a projector and don't want to pay for it. Just don't like paying and love challenges :)
i like your simple edea very much but i have one question. there are 2 curcuit boards attached to the lcd, one on the bottom and one along the side. how did you reattach the cable between them or is it possible to have a clear display with just the bottom circuit plugged in?
The fan stops the lcd from distorting (they are heat sensitive) I started with oen of these, moved on to self contained systems with cold mirrors and fresnels. Less noise and looks better
thought this was a great idea i had to build onr myself thanks works very good and all who c are impressed thanks again and if you shop around you could do it for under £60
i thought this was a great idea ihad to build one myself thanks works fine and all who c are impressed thanks again, and if you shop around you could build it for under £60 that what i did
I admire the thought and work put into this,but in the end your left with a bulky thing in your room and quite honestly I believe my Projector(epson)can be had for 600.00 cheaper yet on e-bay...I'm sure there';s cheaper ones yet out there...bulbs are 175.00 and I'm still going on 6000 Hours with mine although I here that kind of life is uncommon...average of 2000 hours.
Very well done...it's actually better than spending lots of money on a real projector like I have...and the picture quality looks great...It gives me motivation in building one cause I know soon the lamp on my projector will die out and it would cost me $300-$500 bucks just to replace it...Good Job!!!

hmm, you can use audio/Video Control System like Sony STR-DB930 amplifier etc. and connect as monitor/tv and switching between devices in the amp...

ok, after googling a bit, i found out that a 65W CFL will produce about 4000 lumen (i think it's more than enough) and considerably less heat
zws1922 3 years ago
regarding power consumption and heat generation, would it be possible replace the original light source of the projector fith a CFL light bulb?

i already did this with a 15" Medion LCD..
picture quality is perfect... but you have to use a fan to keep the display from getting to hot or even melting..
one big drawback: power consumption :(
my OH-Projector alone (without LCD) uses 360Watt :(

Nicely done! Interesting idea and a very well-made video. I might suggest a power screwdriver instead of seeing all the screw turning. ;-)

Just a heads up to whoever would love to make this: YOU CAN'T USE ANY LCD. Do your homework before you do this.
MakeYourself1987 4 years ago 7
interesting. im sure the picture quality leaves a lot to be desired, and i'm wondering how long until it melts, but still very interesting

I doubt it'll melt.

No, its cheaper because when a real projectors bulb starts going out it will cost you an arm & a leg!

DON'T DO IT THIS WAY.Them lcd flaps on the side tears like tissue. Once you get a single rip in one you wasted 100$ dollars. Try LCD PANEL in stead.

It doesnt have to be a perfectly good working one , it can be one with a dead back light or one that is very dimm.

PROS: cheap/easy
Cons: noisy, lots of heat.
The fan stops the lcd from distorting (they are heat sensitive) I started with oen of these, moved on to self contained systems with cold mirrors and fresnels. Less noise and looks better
