Crazy new i dea for a portable

MM007 · Post by **MM007** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 4:29 pm

My projector is a 1980's model with 3 lenses, Red, Green, and Blue. No way I could get that thing to fit in a car...my inverter is only 300 Watts!

Is there a way to build a cheap and simple one?

Sorry but its a pretty pricy project, unless you already had a projector...and a car.....and a buttload of money....
But in all honesty I probably will try it when I get my licence in 2006. Escalade here I come!!

I've already got the car, the license, and the projector. Just need the 100 miles of extention cord.

(My inverter is 150W.)

I know Ill probably get a 2000 Celica and pimp it out. Chameleon paint, Bucket seats, 4-5 12 inch LCD tvs, Spinners, and a bodykit.

Well, this isn't about a portable projector, just another crazy idea for a portable....

Anybody add a small camera to a portable yet? Maybe add some RCA out jacks as well? So you could hook it up to a TV/VCR and record.

The O being the camera, and the flat bottom being the screen. This way you can capture those intense gaming moments.

Thats pretty sweet. $19 is like nothing. Other cameras like that are like $50. I think Ill buy it and put it in my RC Helicopter. I wonder if I could watch what my helicopter is seeing live on y Psone screen. I would need some sort of antena....
Anyways that would be cool to put in a portable. Theres not much use for it there though. Unless its like a security camera.
