Yeah, I got a pretty good deal on a used Epson 9000i from eBay.. Hopefully there's enough bulb hours to get through the upcoming Christmas season.. Replacement bulbs are $$PRICEY$$. When that happens I might just look at what newer technology has to offer.

I did something similar to this last year but I ran the cartoon version of the Grinch. Every so often it would also have jpeg's of various still shots from christmas movies and cartoons pop up. I also had warnings about video surveillence, The station frequencies, and Merry christmas would pop up on the screen in different languages. I had so many people coming by and watching the grinch I added a second transmitter on its own frequency with the feed from the projector. The projector I used is just the cheapie one called the torpedo look for it at target for around a hundred bucks. I think walmart also had it for sale(google it)

Yeah - I'm doing more than just the simple radio sign as well - Examples of some of the video I've done can be viewed at http://www.keenlights.info/video/VideoFiles.htm.
For those sequences I didn't have anything specific in mind the projector doubles as another radio sign.
As for the Torpedo I looked at it and doubt it will meet my need shooting through glass on 2 doors and reverse screen, but I've done research on it and it sure looks like it could fit well for some.

I built a box for mine that is weatherproof. I also have an x-10 video sender to it so the video comes from inside. I am in the process of building a new house so this year I wont be able to it for Halloween but I have video from a night when the moon was full with the clouds going in front of it. so next year for the graveyard I will have a full harvest moon up on top of the roof.

Sounds like a fantastic idea! Any chance of sharing your projector project? I would be interested in how it was constructed layout etc. Thanks in Adance.
