From the producers of the projector has high-pressure mercury vapor lamps are used, the projection lamp to achieve adequate brightness of the projector (ANSI lumens). In recent years, the manufacturer is able to significantly reduce the amount of mercury used, but not eliminate it. Unfortunately, high pressure (200 atmospheres or more) vapor lamps Mercury remains a risk to consumers if not handled properly in sharing and for the environment if not disposed of properly.
Recycling plants can recoverand the mercury has reached a recycling rate of up to 97 percent. They acknowledged the problem, some manufacturers such as Epson projectors set, recycling programs. But in spite of legislative measures in many countries, most mercury-containing lamps end up in landfills. Available in this way can result in the release of mercury into the environment and the contamination of the food chain. Since the metal mercury is particularly dangerous as EPA's list of industryPollutants (potent neurotoxin to humans), this is not a good result.
Fortunately, a solution is at hand in the form of Luminus Devices, PhlatLight technology, a new solid-state LED light source and a combination of both laser technology. This new lighting technology is 100 percent free of hazardous materials like mercury and lead (RoHS). There are other environmental (and financial) benefits of using this new technology projection of light, including low energy consumptionand significantly longer lamp life up to 60,000 hours (this is the realistic life of the projector), up from about 2,000 to 3,000 for the current mercury vapor lamps to high pressure.
Due to the limited scope of brightness, the first LED headlamps PhlatLight ultra-portable projector in your pocket, as has recently released EP-Optoma Pico Pocket Projector PK-101. PhlatLight LED chip sets as published in January 2009 and PT-121 PT-120 are now in a position of lightValues up to 3000 ANSI lumens, which is suitable for home theater projectors, and most of the business projector applications. The PT-120 and all other PhlatLight chipsets are commonly used in projectors with DLP, LCoS and LCD micro-display.
Luminus Devices announced the release in January on the consumer market in the first Full HD (1080p) DLP projector, the HT-8000 Delta Electronics, in his PT-120 PhlatLight LED chip. If you are looking for a new projector, look out forthis new technology, as one would expect that many new models will appear in 2009.
