Maintenance

1. Cleaning

  • Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the projector's exterior.
  • For the lens, use a lens cleaning cloth and solution specifically designed for optical surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals.
  • Regularly check and clean the ventilation openings to prevent dust buildup, which can affect performance and lifespan.

2. Storage

  • Store the projector in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • If storing for extended periods, ensure the built-in battery is partially charged (around 50%) to prolong its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

1. No Image / Poor Image Quality

  • Check Focus: Adjust the focus wheel on the side of the projector.
  • Input Source: Ensure the correct input source (HDMI, USB, Wireless Display) is selected.
  • Cable Connections: Verify all HDMI or USB cables are securely connected.
  • Wireless Display: For screen mirroring, confirm both the projector and your device are on the same Wi-Fi network.
  • Image Graininess: If the image appears grainy, try projecting onto a different, smoother surface or a dedicated projector screen.

2. Battery Life Shorter Than Expected

  • Battery life is typically 1.5-2.5 hours, depending on usage and brightness settings. Higher brightness consumes more power.
  • For extended viewing, connect the projector to the power adapter or a compatible power bank (>DC 5V 3A).

3. Cannot Connect to Laptop Wirelessly

  • Ensure your laptop supports Airplay/Miracast/DLNA protocols or that you have the Eshare app installed.
  • Verify that both your laptop and the projector are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.

4. Netflix/Streaming App Issues

  • Ensure you have a stable and strong internet connection.
  • Try updating the streaming application to its latest version.
  • Some apps may have regional restrictions or specific compatibility requirements.

5. No Sound / Poor Sound

  • Check the projector's volume settings.
  • If using external speakers, ensure they are properly connected to the 3.5mm audio out port or correctly paired via Bluetooth.

6. Overheating / Fan Noise

  • Ensure that the projector's ventilation vents are not blocked.
  • In the Android OS settings, there may be an option to adjust the fan speed for cooling during prolonged or heavy use.

7. USB Drive Not Recognized

  • Ensure the USB drive is properly inserted into the USB 3.0 port.
  • Verify that the file system of the USB drive is compatible (e.g., FAT32, NTFS).
  • Try using a different USB drive to rule out drive issues.

User Tips

  • For optimal viewing, especially during the day, use the projector in a darkened room or at night.
  • When connecting to a power bank, ensure it provides >DC 5V 3A output for proper charging and operation.
  • The built-in speakers are quite good for a portable device, but for a truly immersive audio experience, consider connecting external Bluetooth speakers.
  • If you experience any lag with streaming apps like Netflix, ensure your internet connection is strong and stable.
