(More customer reviews)I originally purchased this Projector because I was hosting a Windows 7 Launch Party and wanted to be able to do presentations and demonstrate the OS. I wanted a projector that would be able to project an image that will be bright enough to see even though the lights are turned on.
This projector is AMAZINGLY bright at 3000 Lumens!! On top of that it has so many different inputs that it accepts just about any video signal. To get component video you need a RGB to SVGA adaptor, but those can be picked up for around $15 to $30.
The quality of this image is AMAZING!! I was able to project an image on my 35' Great room ceiling and it was still CLEAR!!! I am now using this projector in my home theater... it's NOT 1080P... but rather 720... but still "high definition" none-the-less.
This projector is PERFECT for presentations... HOWEVER... be aware that you can't really resize the image. The keystone only allows for a minor 15% correction angle. If you are projecting this on to a screen it's going to take a LONG time to get the picture size correct... as the picture size changes only by moving the projector.
I built my theater around this projector so for me it wasn't an issue. I mounted the projector then built the walls around it... used GOO for the screen... and it's totally amazing!!
Again, if you already have a home theater... this is probably NOT the projector for you. I would suggest getting a projector that can adjust the image size... but for the price of this I couldn't pass it up.
I went to Best Buy to compare Lumens... and the brightest that Best Buy had on display was only 1600 lumens... This bad boy is nearly twice as bright!! And the colors are AMAZINGLY vivid! The blacks are really dark... unlike almost all of the other projectors in this price range.
This projector is very quiet too... another huge plus when giving presentations (or watching tv/movie/PC videos).
Anyway, I HIGHLY recommend this projector. This is a very HIGH QUALITY product. I've been using this projector for well over 6 months now... often 3 to 6 hours a day... and the bulb is still extremely bright. I researched projectors that varied from $1,000 all the way up to $12,000... and I chose this projector because it gives about the same quality as a projector in the $8,000 range. The only downfall is the inability to adjust the video size (Did I mention that before??? YES... It's that important to keep mentioning)
Another nice thing about this projector which is AWESOME is that it only needs to be 4 Feet away from the wall/screen to project a 100 Inch Image!! That is HUGE!! My screen in my theater is about 10 Feet wide... and this projector is set back only about 5 feet or so... It's amazing!
When you're looking for a device to watch movies on... why pay much more for a 65" plasma TV when you can buy this projector and make a 65" plasma look TINY?? This is great value for the money... and I highly recommend this projector. I was a little weary of this at first because of the brand.... but Vivitek may be new to this market, but they are really putting out HIGH QUALITY projectors.
Because this is a short throw projector with a very bright bulb (3000 lumens) and amazing color output and a small price tag... I couldn't not recommend it.

It's also compact and lightweight, measuring just 13.2 x 4 x 10 inches (WxHxD) and weighing just 7.7 pounds. And being that it is designed for smaller spaces, its built-in cooling fan produces just 34 dB (Eco-Mode) for ultra-quiet operation that won't drown out the sound of your media.
The Environmental Choice: Low Energy Usage and RoHS Compliant You'll save on energy costs as well, as this projector draws less than one watt of power in standby mode.
The projector offers an improved cooling feature, thanks to an innovative air flow design that draws air from a left-to-right direction, as opposed from the more traditional back to front. This results in more a efficient operation over the long term, as well as less wear on the motor.
You'll also be happy to know that the projector is RoHS compliant, meeting the industry's directive on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances. Constructed with lead-free solder and glass, and free of other hazardous materials, the D930TX is an excellent environmental choice.
New Generation Lamp for Super High Brightness The heart and soul of any projector is in its lamp, and the D930TX features an innovative new lamp that generates 3,000 lumens for an ultra-bright picture in almost any lighting setting. The high brightness lamp makes this projector perfect for classrooms, small conference rooms, or home theater/gaming rooms.
For those watching movies, the D930TX also supports 3:2/2:2 pull down, which effectively translates the images from movies in their original form to the screen without jagged images and ensures a clean, crisp image quality.

Thanks to its seven-color individual adjustment feature, the D930TX also lets you tune each color -- R, G, B, C, M, Y, and W -- for hue, saturation, and more.
Filter-Free Design for Increased Durability Unlike other projectors that need replacement filters to filter away harmful dust from its vital components, the D930TX features a filter-free design that keeps dust out without the need for expensive filters. This increases the overall durability and cost-of-ownership, not to mention lowering any maintenance costs associated with clogged filters or damage to interior parts. The projector also has a high altitude mode that lets it perform in low air pressure / high altitude areas, such as locations above 1,600 meters above sea level.
Network Connectivity for Added Versatility The D930TX also features a built-in web server and RJ45 connection that allows you to remotely control and administer the projector through a web interface. Simply connect the project to your network via the RJ45 connection and you can remotely control several of the projector's features and monitor the projector's status. You can have status reports on the projector sent to a network administrator via email, and you can also remotely control several functions, such as projection mode, brightness, contrast, and color temperature. You can also set the projector to power up or down on an appointed time schedule.
Along with all of the standard inputs, such as VGA, S-Video, Composite Video, and HDMI, the D930TX short-throw projector also has some advanced connectivity options, including RS-232C, and USB for added versatility.
