I can't seem to find any specs on LUMENS. And that's pretty darn important. I would love to have a super-compact LCD projector. But I don't want to sacrifice on the lumens. Somewhere I saw an unofficial reference to 500 lumens. (Compare that to a standard entry-level Epson which is around 2000.)

Also, the fact that you cannot replace the LED lamp (when it burns out at 10,000 hours) seems like a problem.

Here's its competition:

It's 7 (yes, seven) lumens.

That's over one year of continuous use - which is presumably not what this projector is about.

Here's its competition:

Woohoo! :rolleyes:

I think you should run very quickly away from either of these dogs.

These tiny projectors are never going to replace the luggable ones that are way, way brighter.

But that's not what they're for. If I knew I would have to show something, I wouldn't want one. If I had a 5% chance I might have to show something (in a dark room), but didn't know when, they might become more interesting.
