Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

^^ thats fine Dr Z- current plan is to do the bank transfer on next Wed- do you think the check will clear by then- if not, consider a bank check... some bank do these free- USPS MOs are ALWAYS FS $1.99
LaserFace George UPSed his bank check yesterday and it just now came-
with Xmas coming soon we dont have the option of delaying much longer- for this reason many have sent me USPS MOs same as cash at my bank--

all PJs will be ordered with the same transfer- those that are NOT getting LKRGB5s
will see delivery about 72 hours after DHL gives Linna our tracking-- BUT because the NOT usually analog -LK needs a week to 10 days to mod these for us- and they are reluctant to start until all are paid for ATM it looks like we have enough for the free upgraded mod but one moar would be great--

One member asked me how come some China sellers of RGB FULL COLOR PJs at about 1W are cheaper- thats easy to answer --you are mistaken-

here is why

Unlike Lk/Linna and JETLASERS /Gray who ONLY ship Lasers ALL overspec or at least spec-the rest send whatever-- are you willing to pay $80 usd to get your $$ back?? assuming you will--

and when LK sez FULL COLOR analog mod. that are NOT lying - the 'fine print' in most all 1W full color chi-jectors sez TTL-or has NOTHING there about the modulation and you CANNOT get full color from TTL- just seven colors-

nice BUT not full color

so even if we somehow knew these sellers stood behind thier products (like Linna or Gray or AixiZ) - I would be leery-

but afaik we do NOT know this-
& who else will promise 72 hr delivery ??
any offering 'free delivery' will NOT be using DHL Express
you box MAY get opened and inspected- w/ dhl (so far) that has NEVER happened( 3 GBs for L and 8 for JL, thats like 100 packages so far)

and NONE of the cheap 1Wers are 638 red- that makes a huge difference-- as it takes 2W of 660 red to be as bright to our eyes as1W of 635 638-- so a much improved white balance-- you get (sometimes) what you pay for--

I would have quit right after Lk GB #1 unless I felt my/our buyers would be NOT all happy campers-- ands so far they all are..

so if you want to find why all the fuss about projectors ???
get your MO or bank check in the morning and send with two day delivery- after friday your only choice is USPS MO delivered to Tx on or before next tuesday

for $248 you will be 'fall outta your chair' impressed- IF not- send the LK 3D to me and I will be VERY happy to mail you a check for $248- as long as there is NO damage still in original box and you do this before 30 days have passed= we have pics and vids of what this MINI stand alone PJ can do.... they are in the threrads=posted by t-mack amd also Linna- the vids look just OK- but in person these are MUCH nicer- the flicker and lack of bright reds is due to the cameras used- not due to the LK 3Ds-

@WendyLou - understood ...I checked & you are correct- MS or linnix only

mac and Pj soft are not friends..

old but still fine laptops are easy to find- 'erbody wants tablets or does their internet from their phone -- great! another dumb ass thing to do while driving-- duh!!

mssg sent by full size keyboard- 17 inch flat monitor and a BIG-ASS ASUS tower deaktop-- Win XP
lol

PM for my addres
( sry hak dont do POOPPal)

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

I'm kinda looking at THIS one.

Drivers are there and it's compatible with a lot of free controller software. All of which I'll have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, but it'll be fun finding out! :thinking:


Looks workable- BUt I am sorry I do not know a lot about DMX-before I had a chance to try it I got 5PAGHETTI LICENSE FREE from Gary when at SELEM-
did not even have a PC PJ but knew in time i would- the next SELEM I got what could be a good or bad deal on a BlackMamba clone < never used it (yet) THEN about the time i was ready to learn laser show software with those .......AixiZ dropped a Fb3QS in my lap- said i needed to learn it fast as AixiZ was counting on me to handle customer support so I would be 'earning' my QS-
ha ha QS is SO easy to learn and their forum is SO great with almost all Questions already answered I have really never had to work hard to help pango buyers\ yeah!

At the social group R.O.G. we have a 'thread' ( at LPF 'groups' these are called 'discussions') there on DMX and a few of the guys know enough to be helpful- especially Rodman/& Bungy\ et al.


I dont recommend asking in the open forum for help at P.Lex :tsk:
many there are not too fond of Chi-jectors-:whistle: pointers or the pointer forums-:thinking:-- I do NOT hold this against these members as Pointers
and handhelds will be the cause of stricter laser laws NOT PJs- so by proxy
LPF and its members , in general, are a potential thorn in their Backsides.

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

none taken-

there is no denying that few go from owning and building laser projectors to owning and buying just handhelds- it happens almost always the other way around.
no offence meant--


Money arrived today from Coherant and Laserface- both paid extra for quick delivery- Thanks-
a few have stopped posting or replying- we cant hold off the order any more- most want these delivered before the holidays. tic toc

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

For those of you getting a LK-3D – in addition to the remote control and built in auto shows – there are extra patterns and features accessible via DMX controllers with at least 17 channels. This can be either a DMX512 control surface (e.g. 192 channel DMX512 controllers) or even a DMX-to-USB interface like the EntTec OpenDMX USB ($70) plus several free software apps listed on that EntTec page. I'm sure other LK-3D owners would be very interested to hear a review of these DMX features if you are the first to make the additional investment! If no one does, I will – eventually! :yh:

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

So the Dmx controller you first linked to several posts back are capable of handling all of the patterns available in the LK -3D? I would imagine the 192 channels would be more than enough, but I see on the instructions, some design channels go into the 200+. Or am I not understanding something? I would hate to get a controller and still have designs or features I can't access.

Yes, most controller are of the 192 channel variety which is more than capable of handling the LK-3D. I saw a couple at 4 and 6 channel, but we need at least 17 channels for the LK-3D, so I would go with a 192 channel DMX512 controller, as they are only $70-$100+ on eBay. If you ever get more DMX laser scanners or lights, you could use the same controller for all of them.

I will get the money orders out tomorrow and send them so they arrive sooner than next Wednesday, however I need you to confirm your address so I don't accidentally send them to the wrong place.

Excellent wendylou. Well whoever happens to grab one first I'm sure will spread the word. I have a lot of money tied up in builds right now, but I do plan to get one soon.

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

I have ordered the Chauvet Obey40, 192 channel DMX 512 controller (comes with 4- 15 ft 3 pin DMX cables) and should have it by Friday this week so it will be waiting for the LK-3D. I paid 119.99 free shipping thru ebay shipped from the USA. I have used my Chauvet fog machine weekly for a year and a half with zero problems and may have spent a few extra dollars for the trust in their products, but that is OK with me. I have downloaded the manual and have been reading it to learn as much as I can before the LK-3D arrives. Here is the link to the manual if anyone is interested -

Re: UPDATE!!Laserprojector group buy # 4 Time to send PAYMENTS

I took a bit of a risk and assumed that your address is still the same as the one you have been at since I last sent you a payment for a GB. The money order is in the mail and should arrive around Monday, I will send you a PM with the tracking info.

no we waited- in the morning- still enough to get all but the LKRGB5s in hand next week- Linna will not let us down nor will I.

we needed these last ones to join us- making the quota i set for this

We should see tracking #2 Monday if not Sat.

Miss Linna spends 12 hours making sure each leaves LK working perfect-
12 hrs ahead of us- one day for the $$$ to transfer- about a week from NOW! is my guess- fill your mind with the stuff in the owners manuals links in the OP also in Slyoung's GREAT REVIEW-- most awesome LK PD 2 pics i have seen- the won Miss Wendy over- ya'll need to go see these- and G-email a PP to hakzaw1 before I get up 8 hours from NOW.
add 4%
send you full addy and phone via PM
