Infocus LP930 projector

[huffdaddyz400]

Does anyone have experience with the Infocus LP930 projector? My father passed away earlier this year and this was among some of the stuff he left to me. It powers up and works fine when attached to my DVD player. Picture is clear and the color is fine. The bulb seems fine too but I have not idea how many hours it has on it.

Just curous if it would work for a Home Theatre setup or should I not waste my time and just eBay it?

Thanks

Well it may work "some" but likely not a recommended unit INHO.

Would you know what the downsides are? I only played a few minutes of a DVD and it looked ok for what I saw. I have zero experience with projectors so any help would be greatly appreciated.

The native resolution and general specs are not great but serviceable; and it appears that the reliability of that model my be suspect. Its current AGE would scare me from installing as I would any new unit. So if you want the possibilities of less to no headaches you might search elsewhere. Certainly there are much better spec units for not a lot of money.

All that said; its free and it works so maybe use it in a non-permanent mount and let it ride until whenever.....
