I have for sale a low-use HP MP3130 video projector. The firmware screen says it has only 51 hours of use. I got a deal on two of these and am keeping one for having backyard movie nights. It retailed for $2500 when it was new.
This projector is unusual in that it is very compact, and has a vertical orientation instead of a horizontal orientation, so it has a very small footprint. It can even be mounted on a camera tripod.
It is a native XGA DLP projector that can also handle 720P (DVD quality) and 1080i (blu-ray quality) video inputs. Because it is a DLP projector it produces much clearer images than the cheaper LCD projectors do.
Using the proper cable it can handle analog component video or vga signals, or digital dvi or HDMI signals. It can project in either full or wide screen formats.
While it does have an internal mono speaker, I don't recommend using it -- connect your source to a decent bluetooth or wired external speaker set instead to get much better sound.
It has a 2000 lumen bulb with a 2000 hour lamp life, double that if you use the "lamp saver" setting. Replacement lamps can be found for around $35. It has a "presentation mode" that enhances powerpoint presentations, and a "theater mode" that enhances motion video.
It comes with its own leather carry case, which has a pouch for the video cables and and spaces for the power cable and remote. Included is a vga/usb cable, a power cable, and the original HP remote with laser pointer and USB mouse controls. If you want a DVI/USB cable or an HDMI adapter, I can send you links to get them very reasonably.
If you want to see it working, I'd be happy to demo it for you and go through the settings with you. The manual is available online -- I can send you a link.
The text from the original HP description for this item is pasted at the end of this listing.
Thanks for looking!
You can call me at the number above between 10am and midnight, or send me an email using the link above. Please DO NOT text, as I often don't see them.
Please note I do screen calls from unknown numbers, so please leave a message the first time you call indicating who you are, your phone number, and what you are calling about. I'll add you to my craigslist contacts after that, and answer the calls directly.
Some details about my CL postings:
1. I delete postings within minutes of them selling -- if it is still posted, I still have it -- so please don't ask if it's still available, I won't answer -- (too many CL trolls out there looking for email addresses to spam).
2. I only sell locally and for cash
3. I only reply to emails via the Craigslist relay, so please don't ask me to reply to another email address. If you buy from me, I am willing to share my direct email info, but not before.
4. I do screen calls from unknown numbers, so please leave a message the first time you call indicating who you are, your phone number, and what you are calling about. I'll add you to my known contacts after that, and answer the calls directly.
5. I won't click on any links sent via email or text, as it is unsafe for me to do so. So please don't ask me to click on a link in a text message or email you send to me "to prove I am a real person".
6. Again, please DO NOT text, as I often don't see them.
