I've only just got the PK102 and have only tried it connected to a PC projecting the desktop because that's all I really want it for with my next project, you have to set the desktop resolution to VGA 640 X 480 or SVGA 800 x 600 and the refresh rate must be set to 60Hz so up close to the projected picture it's not a really sharp picture for small text reading but I played a video from the PC using VLC player so you can adjust colour and brightness settings and sitting about 6-7 feet back from the picture it's quite acceptable but the darker the room the better for picture brightness.

I bought it second hand for £80 and don't think it's worth the money that some companies want for a new one, prices vary a stupid amount on amazon from £144 to a crazy £250.

I spent hours checking specs and details of many pico projectors and went for the PK102 because it's easy to connect to a PC with a dedicated VGA lead that comes with it, some projectors need adaptors and 2-3 leads to connect to a PC and some don't connect to a PC and only project what's stored from internal memory or memory cards/sticks.there are some videos about the PK102 on youtube.

Now THAT looks like a project!! I've always had a soft spot for those old Montes. They are extremely versatile when it comes to motors, and LOTS of parts to choose from. Daily driver?

first car so yes it will be my daily driver. the thing loves me. the motor hasn't been started in a year i went to look at it turned it once she fired and purred like a kitten for me. ALOT of body work but it will so be worth it.
