Shitty 1080P projector for $29.99

That's nuts.  My Epson 5050UB "4K" projector cost $3k and it's entry-level.

But I guess if you're looking for a shitty big screen projector for your garage or outdoor patio at night with all the lights off and don't want to care if anyone steals it...

Here you go.  Probably looks decent after a six pack or a few shots.

It has 250 lumens. Thus the price. 

I have a $7 flashlight with more lumens than this thing.

I have a cheap one for outdoor movies.  I think I paid $120 for it like 4 years ago. Works perfectly fine. I just plug in a Roku stick directly into the HDMI port and stream whatever.  I bought a $50 soundbar for audio.  At the price point, it was a great purchase. I don't even have to give a shit about it. Just toss it on the shelf in the workshop between uses. If it dies, it dies.

Why run it off a balun outside. Plug it into a $29 portable DVD player.

That's a good idea.  Something to leave out there at all times, so anyone can use it.

I've got whole-house audio & video, so my audio/video sources are everywhere.
It was a massive PITA running all the cabling for it.  I used one cat5 balun but the rest are all HDMI.
