The efficient 3LCD panel system is enhanced by advanced BrightEra™ technology for impressively bright, consistent, high resolution images with excellent colour accuracy and impressive reliability.
WXGA resolution
WXGA (1280 x 800) 16:10 display resolution gives plenty of crisp detail: ideal for making presentations direct from a laptop, mobile device or DVD player.
Powerful 16W audio

Energy efficient with long-lasting lamp life up to 10,000 hours
High-performance lamp technology offers reduced ownership costs plus reduced maintenance, with a long-lasting lamp replacement time of approx. 10,000 hours (with brightness in low mode).
Advanced energy-saving features
Advanced lamp technology enables a range of energy-saving features. Auto Light Dimming mode saves energy when the projector is left on without being used.
