The Pico PK100 is a very small battery powered portable projector that produces a surprisingly good image in a darkened room. This model only supports composite video input. I was given this projector as a gift so I would likely have chosen the Optoma PK102 Pico Pocket Projector for the additional PC VGA support if picking one out for myself (I bought Sabrent PC Laptop Mac Computer to TV Presentation Converter, VGA to Video, PC to TV Converter Box, VGA-Video Converter TV-PC85 to provide the composite video, works great). That being said, the PK100 is still a remarkable device that is both fun and useful.
The box contains the Projector, rechargeable battery, USB cable (for charging only), charger, tripod adapter, and composite videoaudio cable (Yellow, Redwhite). We tried several video sources, including a digital camera, portable DVD player, and an iPod Nano (with the video output cable). These all worked well and produced perfectly acceptable image quality.
The unit has two brightness levels, but I always use the brightest one as it makes the truest colors. The darker the room the better, but the image is very visible at 6′ in normal home ambient lighting. At 6′ the image projected is roughly 2′x3′ at 12′ the size is 4′x6′ but too washed out in anything but near total darkness.
Having a projector that works so well and that can be slipped into a pocket is very cool.
Highly Recommended!
