    Connecting IPad/Phone to Projector

    Hello - any tips or tricks on connecting an iPad to a benQ671st projector? I have tried two lightning to hdmi adapters without any luck.

    any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. Looking to do this route before hooking up the PC.

      Are you using a knockoff adapter, or an official apple adapter?

        Have you tried the OEM Apple lightning to HDMI connector? Apple is notorious for updating iOS to not allow 3rd party lightning adapters to work.. they may work at first, but next iOS update they may not. My Apple adapter was $40 but worth it for reliability sake.

            pretty confident power will sort! use your iPhone/iPad charger
