Frank I desperately need help! I have a Christie DWX555-GS and you are the only person I’ve found that has worked on a close enough model. My up/down/left/right on the lens shift is just falling down due to gravity and will no longer shift in the menu. The motors are fine they spin. I found a thumb sized spring under the assembly. Can’t seem to find where it came from. Could we speak would you be able to help. Christie Technical Customer service could not.

Wow the cooling system on this thing is intense

blows me away (no pun intended) with how immense the cooling is. People used to say solid state light sources were cooler than lamps. At the actual source, probably but I suspect both lamps and lasers will warm up a room.

Frank, I really appreciate your knowledge and how you present your videos. Can I hire you for a few “zoom video” style 1 on 1 sessions? Every few years I try and learn a new and interesting skill that is outside of my comfort zone.

Computers and servers should really take a lesson from the cooling in that thing! Love your work Frank. Unique and excellent repairs!

Thanks brother! I'm starting to really like these higher end laser units. Now that I know its a 1080(16:10 technically), I am going to take it home and try it out. I have a mount rated to 75 pounds so itll hold.

A beast of a machine, built like a tank. I see in the comments you have more laser projector models up for repair, look forward to them. Are you going to repair that Panasonic rw330 you had with the faulty laser module. Cheers Frank, watching from Thailand for a few months....it's cold in the UK...😀. Take care buddy 👍

Thailand is great! My sister in law is from Chiang Mai. You are correct! I have another one of those RW330's and will replace the source in that one hopefully. (thats the plan at least). It might not be until after the holidays but we'll see how it goes. Enjoy the weather !

You're very welcome! I should have some more laser stuff coming in. I found a source for new laser modules and I have a panasonic that needs one.

@@FixitFrank, thanks, sounds interestingly! I did watch nearly all of your very educative videos. The used Casio XJ-A and XJ-M series are priced very low nowadays and their Blue-Lasers (445nm, ca. 1.5W) should fit in many older modules. Only weak point: Noisy Phosphorus-wheel, when cold. After using a conventional bulb (more exactly: 10+ of them 🤡 between clouds of mercury), i'm really still shocked to see which levels of brighness on a grayscreen, crisp colors and contrast these machines are able to deliver, while requiring ridiculous low amounts of power by the filterless design.

Sure sounds nice. Honeslty I'm still getting more familiar with the laser units. My bread and butter has always been lamp based but now that laser/LEDs are starting to fail, I am seeing them more. Being that its a Sharp/NEC, I bet its quite good. At the least it is well built. One thing about NEC is that they never had poor engineering. Always well built and robust.
