I give advice as an Optoma 141x projector user-
- Do not buy 141x or 142x for the following reasons
1 My DMD chip is not working after only 1300 hrs. Cost of replacement from Optoma- 30000 rs. Poor quality heat sink for DMD chip is a real problem for Optoma projectors as you will learn from reviews on Amazon.com.
2 Optoma service is abysmal in India. Unresponsive, under qualified technical staff with a perpetual scarcity of replacement parts.
In fact, I have learned that owning a projector is a big risk, so many things can go wrong, the bulb, power supply, dmd chip etc and because service is poor for Optoma, getting things rectified will be an adventure in itself.
Having said all that, I still enjoyed the projector for the 1300 hrs that it worked.
