Hi Catherine

Although I can’t recommend a particular project, most bulbs will last 1000+ hours. Most projectors will come with a remote and can be left on standby overnight and turning it off properly and allowing the bulb to cool down with the internal fans will extend the life of the projector.
We usually issue instructions to Front of House who will be opening up the galleries with step by step information as to how to turn equipment on and off.

Hope this helps

Hello,

Can anyone recommend a decent projector for use in exhibitions? My main concern is that it works consistently (potentially on all day, 7 days a week for say a period of three months) without needing to change the bulb too quickly.

Many thanks,

Catherine

The way we all register to vote has changed – look out for your letter.

The electoral registration system changed earlier this year to make it more secure

Now, each individual is responsible for registering themselves on the electoral register, rather

than the head of the household.

St Albans City & District Council has written to local residents to tell them about this change. Look

out for your letter, you may need to re-register.

If your name isn’t included on the electoral register you won’t be able to vote.

You can register online now at www.gov.uk/register-to-vote<http://www.gov.uk/register-to-vote>.
