Newbie wanting to buy first RGB Laser Projector, advice please :)

Hello all , I'm wanting to build or buy my first RGB Laser Projector, I've been interested in them for a few years now, just as a simple hobby. I purchased a 100mw Green DPSS Laser Module a few years back with the intention of building a Projector, but never got round to it. The module now sits in a box unused. I don't want to spend very much as this is my first Projector and I realize it not a cheap hobby.

I don't need super fast Galvos, or watts and watts of Laser power. I figured I could always upgrade parts in the future if I need to etc.

I found two Projectors on eBay that I'm interested in, and that are reasonably priced. The first is 500mw and the second is 1000mw both RGB with ILDA Inputs.

Please could someone experienced take a look at these for me and tell me what they think. I understand that the parts inside them may not be high quality, but its a first Projector.

Thanks in advance

I'd look up a Reke 500RGB and try to get that for a first projector (you'll have to do the searching). They're around $300 or so.
