I have one of these and was wondering how big of a reel in ft can it take? I have seen some features on 1600ft reels but want to make sure my projector can accept them.
thanks

Chris, as its "name" states, your trusty Elmo will accomodate 600ft reels (180 meters).
The 1600ft reels, because of their smaller core, can be projected with 1200ft capacity machines, such as the Elmo ST 1200 and GS 1200 series, Yelco 3600 and Chinon SS1200.
(And of course they will fit the bigger - ie. 2200ft capacity - machines such as The Beaulieu 708 and Fumeo 91XX series).

That makes sense. Thanks for the info.
