Repair person for a projector

[John Underwood]

To all the Pigeon Forge Areas owners.

Do you have a local projector repair person?

Ours have a pink spot in the top left corner.

I'll be up there tomorrow and I have a spare bulb and filter so I'll see if it just need a simple cleaning.

Quote from @Michael Baum:

Hey @John Underwood, sounds like you have an LCD projector. Most of them don't have a sealed light path so dust can settle.

What you are seeing there is a dust blob on the red panel.

The biggest issue with this is trying to clean them by blowing compressed air over the light path can dislodge more dust and pretty much turn the projector in to a blob covered mess.

This is a hit or miss kinda thing. Most will take the compressed air and blow it into the intake while using a vacuum on the exhaust side (remove filters) to help shift the dust out of the way.

It's a real crap shoot.

If you need to replace it, you can try a DLP projectors. They have sealed light path plus better blacks. Some people are sensitive to the color wheel (I am) and can see some rainbow effect. 

Thanks.
I'll see if I can vacuum while blowing air into it.

I noticed Best Buy has a TCL Roku 85" TV on sale for under 1k. " John's Deal of the Day" ;)
