What do you guys think of the projector ?
A friend of mine just bought it on ebay .. !

I really wanted to build him a projector... but he found that "deal" on ebay for 300$ so he bought it !
But I was wondering if it is a good one !
Native 16:9 (1280x720)
only 800 Ansi Lumen, will it be brighter then ours ?

Well, if you can give me some advices
Tkx a lot !

Did you mean our opinion? Understandably if your friend was just looking to get a projector rather than build one than it would seem he may have gotten a good deal. It's the cost of replacing the manufacturer's lamps in the long run that he may find expensively bothersome depending how much he uses it. As far as brightness, today's commercials use smaller, expensive, and in this case high resolution lcd mediums not readily accessible to us, so by square law and having the lamp source closer will produce more brightness if this is the case of his Sanyo.
