Hello! Advent anyone?
 

Hello all, I'm Matt from Maine. I have enjoyed doing repairs and rewiring projects on stereos and electronics for some time now. Unfortunately, I am moving and need to thin out my collections. This seems to be a great community of hobbyists and I figured if anyone can use this, I would find them here.


I have an Advent Video Beam 1000 projection unit that I was given by some friends when they moved, I actually saved it from going into a dumpster on the off chance that someone would be able to use it for parts or get it working again.
The family I got it from had used it regularly for movie nights a few years prior. Unfortunately, after about 20 minutes of running the unit and getting the grids aligned, there was a funny smell and it shut off. Haven’t played around with it since.
If someone can take this and use it for parts, I would feel a lot better than dropping it at the dump.
I also have the 6 foot screen and legs as well. Hopefully someone can find some use for this.
Please message me with any questions.

Welcome to VK! Hopefully one of the members will chime in regarding the problem with your free Advent...let's see what happens:)
