  • Want to Buy: Short throw projector

    I know a lot on here are selling off there Skytrak and other monitors. Now I'm curious if anyone is selling there old projectors. Specifically short throw ones. Looking for a good price and model. Let me know what you got.

    I’d be interested to see what other people have to say about the model but I bought a used BenQ MP780ST off eBay for $110 (there’s a boat load of them for sale around $100 from the same person). I did need to get a power chord and remote though ($30 total). Pics attached. It’s throwing a 100” screen from about 5 feet. Works great with all the lights on in my garage, better if I turn off the overhead light behind the screen.

      Seems like a bit older projector that is not 1080p, but the image does look pretty good. In my room, it would be about 6 feet from the screen and so my concern would be hitting it with a flop shot or something. Does it have a manual zoom?

        If it does, I haven’t been able to figure out how to do it. It has a digital zoom (in only). I think these were produced in 2012 so it is older. Just throwing it out there as an inexpensive option. I wasn’t planning on having a projector or screen just using a TV, but with the projector that cheap and I got the screen on amazon for $20 it was worth the upgrade.

          Agree, it looks good and likely really changes the dimensions of you sim experience for the positive!

        I am moving and just sold my GC2. I was thinking I would keep my projector but now wondering if I would really use it. I have a Benq 2150ST and I will let it go for $570. I will pay PayPal fees, you pay for shipping. It is 1080P and the picture is bright and sharp. If you're interested let me know and I am send you some pictures of it along with screen display.
