[Frameworks] increasing bulb brightness 16mm

Does anyone have any expertise/experience around increasing bulb wattage over and above that recommended by projector manufacturer? I want to brighten a 24V/250W 16mm bulb setup, but I obviously don’t want any electrical fires or overheating internally. Is there a breathing area where little if

Well, what is the projector? For the most part it's probably a bad idea. One exception is that if you have projectors that use ordinary incandescent lamps, replacing those with halogen lamps of the same input power and adjusting the condenser and mirror assemblies can give you added brightness sa

Given that the bulb is 24 Volts means that is powered by a transformer. Installing a bulb with higher current would probably overheat the transformer resulting in excess smoke-never a good thing in electric devices. Sherman On May 8, 2014, at 7:55 AM, Alex MacKenzie wrote: > Does anyone have an

While maybe a little outside regular topics, I wonder if anyone has experience transmitting an audio signal to multiple mobile phones. I am planning some outdoor screenings and would love to have the option available for people to plug in their headphones and hear the show more clearly this way.

The idea here would be to stream your audio to a streaming audio service, and the audience would use the app to listen to the stream. The big problem is going to be audio sync. Typically services like ustream the viewer sees or hears the content several seconds later. Even if you had the ability to

With a several seconds delay - can you manually offset the audio by a few seconds to compensate, or is it not a constant delay from device to device? On Thu, May 8, 2014 at 1:45 PM, Sean Weitzel wrote: > The idea here would be to stream your audio to a streaming audio service, > and the audienc

It would likely vary based on available bandwidth and data congestion. I don't think it's a good solution. It's easy to experiment with though. Just sign up for a free ustream account and install the app on a smart-phone and try it. On Thu, May 8, 2014 at 12:00 PM, Bryan McManus wrote: > With a
