    Is that huge silver part a heat sink for the laser?

    I have an Acer BD6510 and it gets the job done! I paid just under 700 for it. There are good projectors out there under a grand I’d think. Mine is only 1080P but seems just as good as theater. I have a PC that I run it with. Girls have taken over my man cave though AAC285E9-0BC6-4195-A7A0-22BC94082ED8.jpg FA451A0A-4AC7-481A-8C1D-DD6DE5C36864.jpg 0C102115-735A-4EB0-A2B6-45494977B2A4.jpg

    These are nice outside too. You can project on the side of your house for games or movies.

    I called Kustom 54 today, they said they bolt the FXR in, and also epoxy it. That was my biggest concern, how they secure it. I am really liking the output on these.

    EPOXY in a projector ?!o_O

    What's high maintenance about it? With the engineering and design behind these.. they will probably outlast many aftermarket components.
    What's this "warranty" thing you speak of?:p

    Maybe he meant, bolt them in and epoxy the screws/nuts so they don't back off. MY best guess.

    Epoxy may not be the word I’m looking for.

    I’m no good at building headlights..

    I thought the FXR had to be fitted in place with an epoxy gum since it doesn’t screw into the existing hole like an H1?
