Tarball Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Go with Composite. Just be sure to use quality cables. HDMI, being a standard, the cables within the particular standard will provide the same signal. The main benefit of HDMI is cable management and support for high quality sound (bitstream). But he won't get HD if he uses composite but he will if he uses the VGA cable. Sorry, terminology. Component will do HD (RGB 3 RCAs) not Composite (Yellow single RCA).

sprkn_ranger Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Yea component will but not composite. And his projector doesn't even have component so only option is the VGA.

Wassalla Posted February 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 sweet! Looks great at 120in, im only running 102in right now but may upgrade in the furture. Once you start going big, theres never enough Screen size! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprkn_ranger Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 Yea it's real nice at 120", but if I go any bigger then my lumens drop way off, that's one of the trade offs with a homemade projector compared to the higher quality store bought projectors. But my lamp last for 25,000 hours and only cost me $35 to replace Quote Check out my build log! 4 Havocs in a blowthrough http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/187506-sprkn-rangers-blowthrough-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprkn_ranger Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 When you say homemade, is it built from the ground up? any pics of it? Yessir, you have to take an LCD computer monitor and strip it to just the bare LCD panel, and put it in a box with a metal hallide lamp and a few lenses: here's a few pics of the build: Quote Check out my build log! 4 Havocs in a blowthrough http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/187506-sprkn-rangers-blowthrough-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sprkn_ranger Posted February 28, 2012 Report Share Posted February 28, 2012 Yea it was a real fun lil project, and I was very impressed with the results. If you go to www.lumenlab.com they have a forum with a wealth of knowledge on how to build one, but there is a lot that goes into it, so be prepared to do some studying!
