The technical data of the Casio XJ A240 includes 2500 ANSI lumens, a contrast of 1800:1 as well as a WXGA 1280 x 800 display. Casio lists a runtime of 20000 hours for the LED in this projector. With four hours of daily operation, this corresponds to a period of 13.7 years. Regarding projection size, the value of 2500 ANSI lumens allows for an image width of up to 508 cm in darkened environments. In rooms with ambient light, the image width should be correspondingly reduced to a maximum of 339 cm. This model dates back to 2010 and is no longer part of Casio's current product range.

This little projector has been sitting on my ceiling for several years and is doing its job. After about 3,500 hours I noticed a white dot. Fortunately, it was outside of a 16:9 film material, otherwise I would have already taken it down from the ceiling. Another white dot now appeared below the image in the lamination of the screen. Once you spot something like this, you always see it and it‘s annoying. Request to Casio for repair: approx. 600 euros. In response to a further inquiry, they also told me that they don‘t sell the part separately and the projector has to be sent in.
Initially, it was nice to have this significantly quieter projector behind me on the ceiling. But after a long day and when you should really be in the box, turning the wheel is annoying! It‘s not the fans that are loud and annoying here. It‘s this nä.ä.ä.ä.ä.ä.ä.ä.ä... noise is probably what has already been described as loud elsewhere. You can only tolerate the projector in ECO2 mode, which is also sufficient in a completely dark room, unless it‘s an action-packed movie whose background noise also keeps the neighbors awake :D
So now I keep searching the net to see what alternatives are available. I‘m no longer interested in normal lamps and 5 times the power consumption, and the one I‘m looking for should already have 1920 resolution by now.
The 1280 is sufficient, but if a Bluray is inserted, you don‘t want to let the advantages of the resolution go to waste.
In the meantime, the little one has cracked its 4,000h mark and I can‘t describe a loss of light as consciously observed.

Report about Casio
You will probably not get any real files from this beamer technology, as the image is built up "one after the other", so you will constantly see color images running through. You could possibly get to grips with high-resolution cameras with a wide shutter range... but who has or does this in the home?

LED is currently not recommended
If you absolutely need such a tiny device, you can just as well go for the EPSON EB 1775W, which REALLY makes its 3000 lumens in contrast to the casio. As an alternative to the 1775W, the 1760W can also be used, as it has the same light values as the 240W .... and is even cheaper.
NONE of the LED hybrids presented so far have delivered their stated performance. furthermore, light losses of 15-20% have already been measured after a running time of 80 - 120h. Casio likes to write 20,000h life expectancy on the "light body", but guarantees a maximum of 6000h.... is very strange. I‘m also surprised that the blue laser bank, of all things, can be accessed extremely quickly using a lid.
Epson is just as big, but lighter and doesn‘t get as hot as the casio.
to the question: how do i know all this: i define the standards for a large company in the beamer sector and test the things on the basis of endurance/user-friendliness and presi performance.
that i‘m not bullshitting:

Not bad for one of the first LED laser hybrids
After a good friend bought this model and we tried it out on a real cinema screen (14m distance, 8x4m screen, but still just bright enough for the pre-show), I bought it after thinking about it for a long time. (Computeruniverse.net)
The high volume, which is often disparaged as annoying, only really bothers me in Eco mode-0
At Eco1 it is as loud as my old Sharp XG NV33, and at Eco2 you could even spend the night sleeping under it. In the evening or in the dark, Eco2 is more than sufficient. During the day there is usually a lot of trouble outside anyway, where the Eco1 is no longer too uncomfortable.
Real plus, the size and manageability.
VGA input it unfortunately only has one, for a nerd like me HDMI is useless but what you have...
Zoom and sharpness can be controlled comfortably, the FB button assignment and arrangement is also well thought out.
What this 24Bps. story, I asked myself weeks ago when I read the first report what they wanted from me! What do 24 (or 48 is it!) pictures output?
The projector is connected to a Philips FTR 9965 which serves as a TV receiver for analog cable TV. Picture top! From time to time the projector needs something to synchronize when changing programs (?) But this could also be due to the 15 meter long VGA cable.
But a real knockout could be the color wheel for some!
Especially with film credits or strong contrasts in the picture, you can see the primary colors when you move your eyes quickly!
A higher output frequency might be desirable here.
Therefore not a full score. But which device can still do that these days ....

Suitable for home cinema???
I would like to buy a projector that not only has a lamp that lasts 2000 - 4000 hours,
I would also like a slightly better resolution,
I am very interested in the Casio XJ A 240.
But I can‘t find any private test reports." In >>>cine4home.de<<< it says something that completely confuses me:
"However, there is one painful exception: our test device was unable to process 1080/24p, which makes movie projection at the original cinema frequency impossible. For many fans, this is a knock-out criterion, but you can hardly blame the device for this, as it‘s not a home cinema projector after all, but merely a presentation device. "
have a look at youtube to see what clips there are of the XJA240.
there are no complaints of this kind.
Question:
Is the Casio XJ A 240 good for home cinema or not????
