Thanks! You know there still so much to do.
1. S-video cable tweak
2. reflector polishing/plating to mirror finish
3. upgrade to varifocus
4. condesner distance tweak
5. fresnel lens upgrade to dual focal
6. cabinet resizing and redesign

I hope i have shared something helpful.

hertzblaster, what size varifocal lens do you plan on upgrading to? Your results are amazing.

You are right! Only my wife is enjoying it. I probably need a week break from diy pj, if I can.

Wow man !!!

What a impressive pics !!!

Congratulations for a real well done job !

A couple of questions.
Are you using some kind of UV protection ?
Does it affect the brightnes or color of the projection ?

I´m using just normal glass with my Prj but it seems to affect blues and obviously doesnot protect the LCD from UV.

Congrats again man !!

Bernardo.

Ok now you are upsetting me Hertz.

Please dont attend this forum anymore - go away and enjoy your PJ and dont show us any more pictures.

Im not looking at anymore! NO way No way.

ORRRRR you can give me that one and then continue your DIY with a new model ?

hertzblaster · 12th May 2004, 07:08 PM

The same size as Alan's triplet. If i can find a bigger one much better. If you look at under the projection lens, not all the light is being captured.

Bought the wrong model of 250w osram. mine has no uv filter. Newer model of250 hqi-ts/ndl has uv filter. May resell my osram later.

pics taken may 2

In my opinion, a IR-filter is as important as a UV-filter. The IR-filter filters (

) most the heat out of the light beam and reflects it to the light engine.

Lightbox is getting hotter -> display keeps cool
