Yeah, that would make sense if it were like two different pictures with different colors, but this is like two colors at the same time. I dunno...

Thanks, and no it's not blue and green LEDs. In order to maximize the efficiency and draw the least amount of current (less stress on the power source), different color LEDs will be worked out with slightly different components.

No sir but that is another source being looked into right now. CCFL ring would provide an ambient environment as long as the ring can withstand the heat in the projector.

I know there is probably a fair amount of animosity towards me (or if it were somebody else at a different time) for doing this but thanks for keeping this clean.

Bashing of other members will not be tolerated! Constructive criticism is welcome but bashing isn't. If you can't follow that, let me know, and I'll gladly resolve the problem for you.

I constructively criticize you for using the same type of name. I'm familiar with "War Machine" as a comic but not with what it was compared to the g37 until I read this thread.

I am honestly very disappointed to hear you chose to label it "War Machine", rather than coming up with an alternative name for it, and even if I were from the westcoast, I would not buy into such form of bootleg product, primarily because of the name given.

Now to reiterate my post - I am not bashing you, I am all for it; the westcoast can have their own form of "Iron Man", but to be unique, why not label it something that distinguishes your product from Igor's to then be two seperate products, rather than you attempting to be the "Successor" to Igor by labeling yours the Iron Man's "Successor Suit"?

I mean the name given is as if Ford comes out with a coupe and labels it G37 Type-R and looks like the G37 with minor tweaks. We will all spit and laugh at any and all because it is a mimic of a great product, and whether it may very well be the next best thing, it will be a crappy imitation in our eyes.

The competitor to 7-up was not called 8-up.

No one bought a "Vii" (Google if your unfamiliar - Google Images captures it best).

Just my $.02.
