    Has anyone on the forum puchased one of these yet?

    UltraProjector.com - Weather-Proof, Stand-Alone Video Projector - Home

    They seem like a low-cost, low-fuss alternative for projecting.

    I'm thinking of ordering in the next few days (while the price is still $159). Thought I'd try to get some input first.

    Thanks!

    There was a post on this a recently, a few concerns as to a 12 watt LED & only 900 lums. Most of my projectors are at 1100 min lums (used for Hallowindows ) & is great.......
    no one has bought one yet for an actual hands on review......you might be it...... It sounds like would be good to load & go without a dvd or pc connected.Would make things less bulky.

    Looks cool, I would be very interested to hear how it works. How much is the price going to go up?

    After some more research I'm thinking this may not be the way to go. They got some pretty bad reviews from Gizmodo and forum member concerns went pretty much unanswered in the thread under props called "Electronic/Software: Hallowindow 2009". Around page 13 there starts to be some discussion about this thing - none of which is very good. More and more it looks like InFocus is the way to go.

    Markgoodson - I'll be curious to see how you like it. Like my post right before yours states, the more I researched the product the more negative feedback I was finding. Please post back and let us know how you like yours.

    Literally before this post came up and it’s only 10 lumens! The fact that you can see it with the lights on, it’s weather resistant, $160 and 900 lumens to me makes this a no brainer. Glad you found this, I have never seen it before, I will keep you posted when I get it.

    I hate to burst your bubble but the resolution is not 1280x768, its actually 640x480, which is the typical for these LED pjs

    Not to bash UltraProjector, but the ultraprojector's resolution is very low.
    When projecting a larger image of 50" or more; the pixels will be so big that it will make the image blurry and pixelated. Unless one plans on using the ultra projector for smaller projected uses, It should be avoided in my opinion.

    Next year, I'd like to plan on having a group buy for a projector. I'm currently working with a projector manufacturer developing a projector that will be perfect for halloween use.

    I wouldn't mind getting one of these if they are decent. I would not expect the same quality as a higher priced unit.
