I would deff be interested for that deal, Still I wonder how Much a 400 wtt HQI bulb/ ballest would be( can you ask LOL) I want daytime viewing darnit dayyyyyyyy timmmmmmmmeeeee, Not direct sun But shades open, Not sure if 250 will do that, Although diylabs says 250 will work, Alan need to get us some pics of this" daytime" viewing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
i dont think projectors are meant to be watched with too much ambient light.Imagine going to the movies and watching it with ALL the lights one, AND outdoor ,or drive in theaters only show movies at night.

Ok as for the 400w HQI there are VERY hard to find and VERY expensive, i think i have some links for HQI bulbs, but the ballast is 174-200 i cant remember exactly. sorry i dont have time to look for it if you really want it i can give you my links.

oh, i watch my Pj in the daytime all the time, but my room has no windows...
any ways i just got GTA vice city and i'll be busy for a while 🙂

Goodluck!

Halogen heat vs Metal Halide

Im currently running a BUHL ohp and a Polaview 3000 .... testing with a 500W halogen work light.. .. im going to buy a light system soon... but dont know what to use... 250W MH or 400W MH to retrofit into my overhead projetor....

With the halogen my panel gets very hot.... .. I read around and it say that Metal Halide is not as hot.. but i dont know if 400W metal halide will be good for my overhead... it look like its going to be real hot.. also... Anyone from experience tell me whats the different heat temperature between the 500W halogen compare to the 400W MH? hmm or should I go for the 250W MH?
 
HEY NEGATIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
