It’s a tale as old as time, and in some cases the projector is nearly as old.
School hall projectors. They are fitted and forgotten. Years go by with them sat 5 metres above your head, going about their business with a quiet hum and no complaints. Until now.
Suddenly, the projector gives in. Kaput. No warning given and no apology made. Leaping from the shadows and into the forefront of your to-do list with all the subtlety of a thumb in the eye.
Often, the problem can be bulb related – however a degrading bulb will give you fair warn with fading colours and failing picture quality. More often, the projector is simply overheating and, like a polar bear in a fur coat – desperate to ventilate.
Exhibit A: Below is a series of images portraying the humble projector filters’ journey from totally clogged with a shag-pile carpet of dust, to clean as a whistle with room to breathe freely again.
A simple service for your projector is an inexpensive way to get more life out of your tech and improve the power efficiency at the same time. It is a win-win.
