Contact him via private message for pricing and options, but I can tell you this- these projectors are on par with commercial units as far as price and far better quality. These things are bullet proof and drop dead gorgeous!

Thanks x100 Charles, yes spot on That is what all my mates who either have those in their 9X6s here or simply get to hold these in their hand says about them

Mmmm, look what I've got on the way.

Anodized 10% Grey Bezel with Clear on the rest.
I have something special in mind, so more on that when the install is underway.


Hint: I'll likely be using one of these below:

Using the sample program to flash the LED and stick the board in the bezel?
Or do something more complicated like having the LEDs in the angle eyes chasing each other?

I want to try and create a breathing LED that is tied to the security LED so that when the security is armed a single red LED will illuminate the inside of the Projector cavity and the result should be a dim glowing pulsating "Breathing" visible in the projector lens.

Seeing as I already have some TI ez430-2012 boards left over from my GoPro RF remote shutter project I figured it would be a fun little project to create "Dragon Eyes".

I have some C code for the TI 2012 Micro Processor that will slowly increase/decrease the brightness of a LED in a rythmic pattern to produce the "Breathing".

Angels eyes are old news and I don't want my Porsche to look like a Beamer so time for something new .
