Does anyone have any info on a GE Imager 601e

[BrianCurran]

I seen one of these for sale recently and was wondering if it would be any use?

Is it a re-badged Nec 6pg?

Thanks

I recently made some enquiries regarding the GE Imager my self.
Basically its a rebadged NEC 6PG Xtra. The only difference is that the casing is black.

Its one of the few electromagnetic focas 7 inch projectors made.
Horizontal scan frequency up to 69Khz with a bandwidth of 100mhz. RGB resolution 1280X1024.

I have never had the opportunity to see one working, however on paper it appears to be worth looking at.

Hope this helps

The GE601e is identical to the NEC 6PG. It is a wonderfull little projector and very underestimated. It would be well suited to a HCPC as it can handle higher resoloutions than your average 7" projector due to the Electromagnetic focus tubes. there is something about the Red on this little baby that makes it differnt to other projectors I have worked on, far more saturated.
The cases were painted black.
There were not that popular in the UK because the sales support was a bit strange and NEC & GE never really got their act together and Barco and Sony and Electohome did.
The US is a differnt matter and this PJ was very popular.
