I don't know this model, but a Xenon 16mm projector + spare lamp for this price seems very cheap to me.

Looks like an older version of the XP350 with a bigger rectifier. I run an XP550 and it's a wonderful machine.

GS1200 Xenon with Elmo 1.0...great combo along with a 16-CL Xenon for that super bright white light.

I'd like a Xenon machine. But at this price there's gotta be a catch??!!
What do you think folks??

Michael, why don't you call the seller (or his brother) to enquire about the running condition of the machine? If the guy is honest enough to give his phone number, this is worth a try.

Yeah, I've thought about it but I feel like I'll be messing with the unknown.
Nobody seems to know anything about these projectors - even over on the 16mm forum.
Maybe I'll wait til I come across one of the more common Xenons.

Michael, it's in COLCHESTER, that's ESSEX, just like you. Phone him, perhaps you can see it running... nothing to lose. After all, it's a "Buy it Now" item, and you can always walk away.
