Casio Lampless Projectors Illuminate St. Columban Church

LED/Laser Technology Means No Lamp Replacements

Garden Grove, CA.  Ro Elliott has served as Music Director at St. Columban Church, Garden Grove, CA, since 2004. One of 62 parishes in the Catholic Diocese of Orange County, CA, Ro selected two Casio XJ-H1700 laser/LED lampless projectors, www.casioprojector.com, for their 1800 seat sanctuary. The church displays music lyrics, scripture and more at all masses for their parishioners on the two front walls next to the alter area.

is thrilled with Casio projectors

Wayne Trouten of Electronic Design Solutions Inc (EDS), Murrieta, CA, systems integrator for the church recommended Casio, www.casioprojector.com, the first hybrid laser/LED projector line, to replace older, dimmer lamped projectors. EDS, founded in 1993, is a full service company providing design, engineered drawings and installation of AV and low voltage systems. www.myedsinc.com.

“We are thrilled with the performance of the Casio projectors – they’re bright and clear” said Ro who serves under Pastor Juan Caboboy at St Columban. “The idea of never replacing bulbs will save our parish a lot of expense and hassle” Ro continued.

Casio announced they have upgraded the entire 22 projector line with even better color rendition, internal memory, improved wireless features and more at InfoComm 2014. Most Casio projectors are now made in Japan (not China any more) which means will be marketable in government sales as a favored nation.

Casio LampFree Projectors

Casio LampFree™ Projectors use a Hybrid Laser/Led Light Source that lasts up to 20,000 Hours,Giving You Crisp Clear Images and Rich Colors for years of maintenance free operation.

Up until now, any projector brighter than 2000 lumens has required a high pressure mercury lamp. Casio has announced what it says is the world’s first data projectors capable of delivering up to 4000 lumens in a well lit room that tick the green box by doing away with the use of mercury.

The Green Slim projectors light source uses blue light emitted by a blue laser, green light converted from blue laser light using a fluorescent element, and light emitted by a red LED through a DLP chip. The resulting light means a room no longer needs to be darkened for data projection, with Casio stating that the hybrid LED, laser and fluorescent light source improves the purity of color compared to traditional mercury lamps.

Maximum brightness is possible in eight seconds, with no cool down required, and an auto-correct function does away with vertical distortion should the projector be nudged. Energy efficiency is big on the agenda with Casio promoting the life of the lightsource to be approximately 20,000 hours – almost ten times that of conventional Casio projectors
