Used Christie Digital LW551i

The Christie Digital LW551i is a single-lamp 3LCD projector producing WXGA resolution of 1280x800 at 5500 lumens. It is suited to corporate presentations, educational settings and event venues where consistent brightness and colour accuracy are required across varying ambient light conditions. Its 1.5-2.2:1 zoom lens range makes it adaptable to different room sizes and throw distances without repositioning the projector.

The LW551i outputs WXGA resolution at 1280x800 pixels and produces 5500 lumens of brightness. That combination of resolution and light output makes it practical for larger meeting rooms, lecture theatres and event spaces where projected images need to remain clear and legible even when ambient lighting cannot be fully controlled.

The LW551i is made by Christie Digital Systems, a visual display technologies company known for digital projection across cinema, live events and professional AV. Within that broad portfolio, the LW551i sits as a professional-grade single-lamp 3LCD installation projector aimed at corporate, education and event applications rather than the large-venue laser end of the Christie range.

Check the lamp hours, as a single-lamp design means replacement cost is a real consideration. Confirm which lens is fitted, since some used units include the 121-130105-01 lens. Verify overall condition grade and whether any cosmetic wear is noted.
