I just received my printer and now I am about to order my projector...I was told to buy the Infocus IN8606HD ..im looking on amazon and I see two projectors...one is $699 and the other is like $1600? http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss? ... +IN8606HD+ why the huge difference in price?? im worried im missing something and may buy the wrong projector.
Re: projector question
Hi,
You can use either the In8606 or the Vivitek H1186HD:
http://www.amazon.com/Vivitek-H1186-WT-Pixel-Entertainment-Projector/dp/B00ZHZC78Q
Not sure why one In8606 is $1600...doubt they'll sell many at that price.

Re: projector question
Thanks for the quick reply...its just annoying because everyone on here has posted they paid around $600 for their infocus but on amazon its now only showing used infocus projectors anywhere near that price and the only new ones are listed at $1600!!!!!!...I suppose I could just buy the new vivitek but it seems the infocus is the more popular one and for trouble shooting purposes I just feel more comfortable using the more popular projector but this price is crazy!!! please calm my nerves and reassure me that there is zero difference between the two and I will be just as happy with the vivitek...its just that after all my research I was prepared to buy the infocus but this price is a problem....not to mention the black matches better than a white vivitek..lol

Re: projector question
I don't think they make that one anymore. Not listed on Infocus website .

Re: projector question
Damn it!! The infocus seems like the far more common projector on here and for trouble shooting and following of user suggestions, i just felt like the infocus was ideal...im worried because i have no experience, i was going to rely a lot on forum suggestions regarding settings and im afraid the suggested settings will not apply because im not using the infocus...is this a valid concern? So much so that buying the used infocus might be a reasonably good idea??..im just afraid that with a vivitek ill be more on my own..does this make sense?
Re: projector question
I understand your concerns, manakawari but since the Vivitek is an official option, I wouldn't worry.
The projector is pretty much a "set it and forget it" piece of the setup in my experience.
Also, the support I've received from Mark and Emil has been top notch in every way. If you have any issues at all, they will work you through them either here, the phone, or by connecting to your computer directly.

Hi,
I sent you a message before but it seems you haven't seen it yet. They are almost identical and in our testing the same settings work. A few people are already using the 1186 so don't worry.

Re: projector question
Thank you so much, I just needed the reassurance , lol...my experience is with fdm 3d printers and milling machines only so I was hoping to utilize the support on this forum to the best of its ability and I was worried using the less common projector might be a problem...thanks again and im placing the order now!!!

Re: projector question
I had the same problem when I tried to buy the infocus projector. I kept googling the infocus number and eventually got one on amazon for a reasonable price. Took me several weeks.
