Cop-out! I always hated it when people did that...

I wouldn't say i was a copout since i improve it and got it to run off a standard home 100w bulb and got it to be bright too

I haven't taken any photos of it but the way to make it work is simple if u reflect the light u make it brighter and useable for the projector

If ur ever seen in a overhead projector it has the bulb but also has a small curved piece of metal that reflects the light.

I did the same thing i used a chrome bowl from kmart for $4 and a clear 100w home bulb and put it in the overhead projector

It now projects nicely and is easy to see it is strictly a dark room kinda thing cause of the light output but id only use it in a a dark room anyway

And hey $1 for a 6 pack of bulbs who can beat that
