yeah you're right; i've finally decided to put a uv filter in front of the lcd; i mean it's not that expensive and not worth to risk any damage 🙂

my setup is exactly what you are talking about; go to the link on the previous site; the light is use was originally a spot light for theatres...; by the way the picture there has a horrible quality; i will post pictures with real projection quality of my projector this weekend; in addition with my new diy anamorphic lense hehe

Well done
Nicely built slize...So that type of projection lens mechanism would allow for a longer thow distance right? i mean distance from projector to screen (of course depending on type of lens) right?
Also the picture you took of the screen seems a little dim, especiall for 400w as compared to some of the pictures i've seen of OHP systems....Is it just the camera u used or is that a by-product of using this type of projection lens?

the throw distance from the lense to the screen is 2,5m (83" i think) and the picture diagonal is 2m (66" i think)...

re screen idea
ok with the screen idea of using perspex, im not sure if u would loose light with it and may i sugest that cleaning perspex is a bummer cos it doesnt matter what u use it scratches to the **** , but anyway on the other hand it would give u a pro look in the day and no doubt look great for moves, but i would sujest painting the back of the screen siler or flat white cos u got the shine on the front of the screen(perspex)

Little Buggers
So can someone tell me what is the best little (sub 12") LCD..in other who makes the mini lcd screens with the highest resolution? Or what is generally the highest resolution you can get out of one of the small ones like a 5" or 7"?
Thanks

Work Light
Hmm I walk around the home depot store today and found this 500W working Halogen lights. I found some bulb that is around 9,000 Lumens. This might do well for projector light since its pretty cheap. It include a UV filter lens in front. Can anyone tell me will this light work? 9,000 lumens seem like nothing compare to the metal halide bulb which is around 36,000 to 40,000 lumens.
well for $9 buck hmmm..

Hows everybody doing? I have been messin with my projector for the past few weeks and was trying different setups with my 1000W MH light. using foil and other stuff and keeping the light about a foot away from the lcd panel, just out of curiocity i put the reflector back on with out the front shield and put it right aginst the glass behind my fresnal lens and omg it was alot brighter im gonna try to take pics of this when i get my digi cam back.

Hortilux
Have anyone research into the Hortilux lights? It seem to be much brighter than the metal halide. It said to produce high spectrum of light similar to the sun.... a 400W bulb can light up to around 60,000 lumens. Anyone know if this bulb is too hot for the projection project? ..........

LED ..... LED AND MORE LED
HEh well it seem like everyone gave up on LED as light source... Well maybe this info will help you people understand more about the LED light.
http://www.lumileds.com/pdfs/techpaperspres/SPIE2001.pdf
It seem that it said that combining the R G AND B color LED together will produce higher lumens. Hmmm well it say that it is use as backlight for lcd. Maybe this will give some hope into making LED as light source.

Problem Solved!
I believe I've come up with a simple solution to solve any and all heat problems with any type of bulb....
Submersible Light Fixtures!
The kind they use to put lights under swimming pools, ponds, even aquariums....
That way we can forget about a "water cooling system" and just place the hole damn thing in a a tub of water (not the front lens of the fixture of course...we don't want the light to shine though water...or do we...pum pum pummmmmm)....
Of course there is a slight weight issue...But a draining valve can easily be made...and there is a leakage issue....but some kind of gutter drain can be incorporated to protect vital components from getting soaked....
thank you

Can someone find me a deal on an lcd panel for "coming up" with this idea?
SO now you can all try that 2000W Halogen you've been aching to stick in without having to worry about heat problems...
