ECO Lamp Dimming
This projector (if this function is selected)
can reduce power consumption and
brightness by 10-15%. After a user pre-set
time, the brightness and power
consumption will reduce to 30% power
usage, with instant 100% brightness
returning as soon as a new signal input
is detected.
ECO Picture Mute - (Instant Off/Instant On)
The new ECO Picture Mute feature
reduces power consumption down to
30%, saving cost and lamp hours. This
feature can be used in the classroom as
instant off/instant on in-between class
changes or in the corporate market as a
tool to redirect attention away from the
screen. There is no need to power
completely off and turn back on which is
time consuming.

5000 Hours Lamp Life
A new driving scheme reduces gap
expansion that minimises brightness
gradation. A new cooling system allows
uniformity in the temperature of the
glass bulb which prevents the glass
from clouding.
