The Eumig S932 is a very common projector and can easily be found on ebay and conventions.

Performance wise they are very good and reliable, quiet in operation, 800ft reel capacity and a good steady picture. Downside is they can suffer from sound playback problems if the mag stripe is of poor quality. The S932 is the baby which Eumig went on to develop the finest Eumig machine, the S940 Stereo, the S940 will give an Elmo GS1200 a run for it's money when sound output is the factor.

100 watt 12 volts usual halogen jobby.
They are very nice to use, bit fiddly on the unloading part way through and remeber to just run filmgaurded prints if you can, especially post 1990 odd prints or paste stripe one`s as the heads as you know do wear quickly but plenty about so a spare head should be no bother.
Just need to like the sankyo keep the inlet shute area well cleaned etc and they are OK.
They do benifit from the light of a xenophot but can get a bit hot with them so better with a standard 131.
Personally I`d expect to pay £25 for an OK one up to £50 max for a minter.
Best Mark.
