Laser projectors also tend to have better color depth. Projector tech has actually progressed by leaps and bounds in the past decade, so people still using older projectors are really missing out.
The one big problem they haven’t been able to solve is black levels. Because with a projector screen, your black level can only ever be as dark as the ambient light in the room.

Yes, it’s an older model that still uses those old lamps. I will probably switch over to a laser projector when it gives up the ghost, but so far, it works well.
Thankfully, I never had a lamp explode on me. That sounds absolutely terrifying.

Yeah on those projectors usually the lamp is what dies first, everything else in em could run for decades, i would advise on selling it while it still works to cover a bit of the price of a laser.
Yeah even thinking of it brings back that metallic taste in my mouth >.<
