[QUOTE="Ron Kimball, post: 202105, member: 405"] You didn't say at what level you were operating at ;) . The "good" stuff is expensive - the Chinese ones are cheap enough that you can probably pay for them in one job. I'd buy and carry spares though - so it might take two jobs to pay for them ;) . In my case I'll use mine for noncritical psychedelic pattern / oil show projection (yay YouTube), maybe some public domain B&W movies as part of a R&R lighting system. If it blows out at a show no big deal at my level. 3000 "Chinese" lumens (probably optimistic ?) seems fine if you can dim the room and/or have a real screen. I'm quite surprised at how well it works in an undimmed room projecting on old wallpaper. BTW I paid $113.99 shipped - crazy cheap IMO, might have been a mis-listing as the price went up right after I ordered. Sources for about 2x that: [url]http://www.ebay.com/dsc/Home-Theater-Projectors/22610/i.html?_sac=1&_from=R40&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEFSRCHX%3ASRCH&LH_TitleDesc=1&_nkw=H3+120w&_trksid=m194&ssPageName=STRK:MEFSRCHX:SRCH[/url] I recommend you stay with the Model H3 with the 120W LED that I bought as there's lots of mis-spec'd stuff out there - but there might be something better out there now too. I did spend a fair amount of time settling on that particular model. [/QUOTE]
