Is this a quite operating projector?

It is a quiet-operating projector when looking at the "stars". The picture discs are done manually, so maybe minor noise, but nothing distracting.

it seems to be quiet but we only turned it on once and decided it wasn't what we wanted to we sent it back. We really want the Laser Stars Projector and from the description this one did the same thing but when we got it doesn't stack up at all the other one. We were pretty disappointed.

Yes, it works well & the pictures of planets on the disc are quite nice. It runs on batteries so if you leave it on all night the batteries wear out quickly.

Yes. It operates quietly, but as a customer who has bought this item, I DO NOT recommend it! --you get a better output/ illumination from glow stars you'd buy in a glow-in-the-dark pack! I was EXTREMELY disappointed when I got this home and tried it out.. Kinda sad Smithsonian lent their name to this product.. (Sorry if this kills the purchase.) --it operates quietly, but in my opinion, it's not worth the purchase. Hope this review can help others..

I just tried it outside of a dirty window at night and it looked great. I imagine it would look pretty good if it were clean too. You just have to remember to set the projector for rear projection so the image will appear correct from outside.

No. I'm using it now with no replace anything. Resolution is low ,320*240, but I can enjoy movies with this projector.

Actually it is pretty quiet as projectors go. More so than the one it replaced. It's three times as bright and you can place it 35% closer to the screen for the same size images. Yes, I would buy it again incase your wondering.

Yes! Easy to use. We host backyard movie gatherings. This projector set up worked perfectly.

As a current owner of this projector, I am not aware that you can connect it to your computer, as it is an Economy projector.

No. You get what you pay for. Look into the Aser H5360 - this is the best projector for the money and can be used for many purposes. I've used it for presentations, and watched 3D movies at home on it (3D requires Optima 3DXL converter.)

Yes, I'm sure you'll be very happy with the results! This is an excellent projector, only issue might be that the focus and shift are done manually. So you'll have to leave your ladder up to do the final setup,

Yes. Basically whatever you watch on the screen, gets projected. However, the unit is an older design and fairly low resolution. Ok in a very dark room but not very bright either. There are newer units that may improve upon this unit.

Yes! That's mainly how i use mine. Everyone that comes into my house thinks it's a huge tv. I have to explain to them that it's a projector. I only recomend it if you have a dark room though.

yes. it will work for you. but please remember this is not a full hd projector; it is not clear enough for small fonts and delicate details.

It looks like it. The connection in the projector is quite unique. But it looksome it will work

Yes, you can use it as a projector by hooking it up to a computer. Just note that the brightness (lumens) is not super high, and you have to pull it very far back to get a big picture. But if you are ok with a picture about the size of 60" tv, you can get that from probably 8 feet away in a decently well darkened room. I hope this helps.

To be honest with you, especially when dealing with money, I sent mine back after having it for only a week. I sent it back because it did not play all m dvds or my flash drive. With my dealings with it, it played some of my items, which did not suit well with me. I hope I answered your question and I am not trying to discredit the company, I'm simply being honest in my dealings with the projector and why I do not have it anymore.

mine works well, the problem i found it is very noisy, i can hear the fen working so it is better for outside or using good speakers, the resolution is not too good either so if u need very detailed image i think u need domething better, but it is the cheapest so if u want something better u should spend at least 500. when i recently bought it i was unhappy because it is hard to project in canvas the reason it is hard it is because you will have to move the projector to get the desired size. all functions work well but i found that i can use lycra and then i made a lycra screen and then i invert the image in the projector and i like it on this way. i hope it helped you mine works well, the problem i found it is very noisy, i can hear the fen working so it is better for outside or using good speakers, the resolution is not too good either so if u need very detailed image i think u need domething better, but it is the cheapest so if u want something better u should spend at least 500. when i recently bought it i was unhappy because it is hard to project in canvas the reason it is hard it is because you will have to move the projector to get the desired size. all functions work well but i found that i can use lycra and then i made a lycra screen and then i... » Read More mine works well, the problem i found it is very noisy, i can hear the fen working so it is better for outside or using good speakers, the resolution is not too good either so if u need very detailed image i think u need domething better, but it is the cheapest so if u want something better u should spend at least 500. when i recently bought it i was unhappy because it is hard to project in canvas the reason it is hard it is because you will have to move the projector to get the desired size. all functions work well but i found that i can use lycra and then i made a lycra screen and then i invert the image in the projector and i like it on this way. i hope it helped you « Show Less

Yes it is. If you use the projector it doesnt hold charge very well. Otherwise very happy with camera
