At under 92 lbs it has an excellent lumen-to-weight ratio, and Christie positions it as a viable alternative to similarly bright 3DLP projectors. It ships without a lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA TAA-compliant version is available as the \u003cstrong\u003eDWU23A-HS\u003c\/strong\u003e, part number 171-055101.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy it competes with 3DLP\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt this brightness the usual assumption is 3DLP. BoldColor+ narrows that gap by adding a dedicated red laser alongside the blue, lifting the colour laser phosphor handles least well. The result is deeper blacks, better colour uniformity and more natural visuals — at a 1DLP price and in a 1DLP chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRealBlack goes further by switching the laser off entirely on black scenes, producing 4,000,000:1 contrast against 1,200:1 with it disabled.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere absolute colour accuracy is the deliverable — museums, mapped installations — 3DLP still wins. Where brightness and value drive the decision, this is the honest alternative.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWeight is the practical advantage\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e91.5 lbs for 23,650 lumens changes what is possible on a rig. It ships easier, lifts easier, and needs less structure than a 3DLP projector of similar output. On a truss or a temporary installation that difference is measured in crew hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt also runs fully omnidirectional, so orientation is not a constraint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLens selection\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTen HS Series lenses are available from a 0.38:1 UST to a 7.2–10.8:1 long zoom. Six carry zoom and focus memory, which matters on multi-projector systems where lenses are recalled to saved positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLens shift is substantial — ±140% vertical and ±50% horizontal on full ILS lenses — so the projector can usually be positioned where the structure allows rather than where the optics demand.

This is for training rather than diagnosis, but for a teaching hospital or medical school it means one projector covers general presentation and imaging review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it is used\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLive events, staging and rental\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eProjection mapping and architectural shows\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLarge auditoriums and houses of worship\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eUniversities and medical training facilities\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eMuseums and attractions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;max-width:100%;min-width:300px;table-layout:fixed;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:38%;\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:62%;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e171-052108 (TAA: 171-055101, DWU23A-HS)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrightness\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e23,650 ISO lumens \/ 21,000 ANSI lumens (±5%)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResolution\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003eWUXGA 1920 x 1200\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e1 x 0.96\" DMD\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContrast\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px;border:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e4,000,000:1 with Christie RealBlack;

At 91.5 lbs it ships, lifts and rigs more easily, and BoldColor+ closes much of the colour gap.
