Hey, who has a 5 color soild state projector.
I have been thinking about color fidelity lately and I was wondering who has a 5 color solid state projector? I know someone does I just can't remember who it is.
Personally I would like to build a 5 color probably: ~450 of 405, 1W of 445, ~250mw 532, ~1W of 638, ~1w 650.
Any words of advice? where did you get the dicros?
thanks,
chad

do you find that having the additional color lines, especially the two reds, make a difference?
i've been thinking about doing
405/445/532/640/660.

Cool! Do you have it balanced for white or for power. Or did you find some happy medium?

the reds are not modulated separately, purely for additional power
I personally don't like 405 for graphics, it messes with my vision and gives me a headache (I see the violet "in front" of the other colors, its weird) for beams I would imagine it would give you some interesting deep colors
everything at 100% makes a beautiful cool white

Yeah it is a very strange color/wavelength. We don't focus on that end of the spectrum very well but I think that is a bonus. I am going for "out of the ordinary".
Any way, I have some stuff to think about.
thanks,

I have a 6 color. Adam has seen it and was quite impressed. There isn't any 405 in it.

If it's any help, in my previous projector I had...
660
642
532
473
445
All driven to produce a nice white. The little extra it brough to the pallette was very nice.

Dr Evil also has 5 colors in his projector. (Same wavelenths as Jem above).
