    DIY Full HD Projector, need advice

    Thanks again, your insights have been very helpful. I will take your advice and try to snag a used optoma or something similar from ebay in the coming days. Things really seem to have come down in price (including the bulbs) over the last few years. I will post the deal if and when I get it, so...

    DIY Full HD Projector, need advice

    Oh wow, thanks again. Your further suggestions have made me reconsider a bit, but I have to do some more reading before making a decision. Would it be easy to replace the cooling fan in case a projector like the Optoma happens to make too much noise? In truth, I am considering some miniature...

    DIY Full HD Projector, need advice

    Wow, thank you for the advice! I am wondering, though, do I need to buy extra fresnel lenses if I am using an overhead projector? For example, I am also trying to follow what these people did: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/supersize-tv,918-7.html They mounted the LCD screen onto an...

    DIY Full HD Projector, need advice

    I am looking to build a 1080p projector from a stripped down LCD monitor, an overhead projector, and a light source. I need help with choosing the light source. I would like no more than 3000 lumens, and could probably do well with just 1500. It would be awesome if it was dimmable as well, so...

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    I thought I'd just give you all an update on my quest for less eye strain. Here is what *really* helped a lot: I got a Chrome extension called Change Colors. It lets you change the background and text / link colors on webpages globally, so now I can browse with minimal backlight shining into...

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    Thanks, I will keep updating this thread as I make progress with the eye strain issue. By the way, are there any projector users out there? Do projectors end up inducing similar issues?

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    I am overwhelmed by all the support and advice I'm getting here. Thanks, guys. I have these Visine Tears (long-lasting lubricant eye drops). Would those qualify as artificial tears? I will have to check out those luteine supplements. I already take a ton of supps, but I'm always up for...

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    I was thinking of getting a warm daylight CFL, which might be OK for eyes? But I do agree that metal halides are very nice to look at, it's just that I don't like dealing with separate ballasts.

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    Yes, I am definitely looking to reduce eye strain. However, today I got that f.lux program, and so far my eyes feel a whole lot better. I usually bring the brightness, color, and contrast of my LCD monitor way down and put on sunglasses as well. But for some reason the eyes still burn sometimes...

    Anyone use an e-ink display?

    Hi everyone. Long time lurker, first time poster. I would like to get an e-ink display that I can hook up to my PC. So far I have seen the Pixel Qi 10" display that sells for $275, but I have also seen a guide on how to convert the Kindle DX into a standalone monitor...
