| 21:24.11 | jfindlay | I need help from someone who is better at finding electronics parts than I am. I need a OSTAR Q6WP LED backlight. It looks like this: http://commweb-ps3.us.dell.com/support-forums/peripherals/f/317/t/19515556 |
| 21:54.31 | Tod-Work | jfindlay, you mean a lamp? |
| 21:55.51 | jfindlay | Tod-Work: I guess :) |
| 21:56.49 | jfindlay | the best I can find is the tiny LED unit itself, but there's no way I can solder a new one onto the board. I would rather get the whole unit, but can't find it anywhere |
| 21:57.08 | jfindlay | dell would rather that I blow another $400 on a new projector |
| 21:57.24 | jfindlay | which is silly considering how easy it is to replace the lamp |
| 21:57.26 | Tod-Work | So is it an OSRAM or is it a Dell? |
| 21:57.34 | jfindlay | good question |
| 21:57.59 | jfindlay | the LED is osram, but it seems someone else makes the board |
| 21:58.33 | jfindlay | all the part information on the piece refer to the LED |
| 22:00.45 | Tod-Work | It looks like the M110 hasn't been in production for over two years, and it was not a standard lamp |
| 22:01.53 | jfindlay | yeah, :( |
| 22:02.06 | jfindlay | it's a really nice little unit though |
| 22:04.22 | Tod-Work | Well, it WAS |
| 22:05.23 | Tod-Work | Looking at the specs and the datasheet, it has three separate LEDs or something, which is ALSO not a standard design, and Dell doesn't sell the part. So you're basically stuck ordering the part on the board from OSRAM and soldering, or you're stuck getting a new projector |
| 22:07.46 | Tod-Work | Every projector lamp distributor I've ever heard of sells both OSRAM lamps and Dell Projector replacement lamps, but not the one you're looking for. It seems like this was a custom thing |
| 22:10.37 | jfindlay | do you recommend any similar micro projectors (sometimes they're called ultra portable)? |
| 22:11.52 | jfindlay | something I found, which I thought was funny, is the service manual for an acer k130, which is basically a dell m110 in a different case |
| 22:12.03 | jfindlay | also discomtinued |
| 22:13.02 | Tod-Work | I don't have any experience with micro projectors |
| 22:13.17 | Tod-Work | I just bought a full-sized Optoma myself, though |
| 22:13.19 | jfindlay | what about just plain small projectors? |
| 22:14.08 | Tod-Work | We have a small-ish Acer that isn't bad, but isn't great either. Depends on your use case. If it's just business use, for presentations or whatever, just about anything will do these days. If it's for theater use, don't go mini |
| 22:14.17 | Tod-Work | (this is why I haven't gone mini) |
| 22:14.55 | Tod-Work | If you want to be inundated with info: http://www.projectorcentral.com/ |
| 22:15.01 | Tod-Work | TONS of good stuff there |
| 22:16.02 | jfindlay | what I really want to do is mod a projector into a small steampunk trunk-like case |
