What We Think

The Good: Mini projector makes it easy for kids to create their own home theater.

The Challenging: Low-resolution images necessitate a viewing environment that is totally dark.

In a Nutshell: Kids will love projecting movies and video games outdoors and on bedroom ceilings!

This kid-friendly projector projects movies, video games and more.

The projector is lightweight and compact, so you can even project on the ceiling.

The EyeClops expands video games to larger-than-life sizes.

If You Can Plug It In, You Can Project It
The Eyeclops puts big-screen projection capability in the palm of your hand. It's easy to create your own home theater -- just connect your favorite media player or game console to the Eyeclops' audio-video inputs (connector cables not included), turn on the power, and aim the projector at a wall or ceiling. With built-in speakers and a projected screen size of up to 60 inches, your favorite movies and video games will take on a whole new look and sound!

The Eyeclops works with DVD players, video game consoles, handheld devices, and more! The projector's simple, kid-friendly features include a pivoting arm for adjusting the projection angle, a volume control, and a focal adjustment. Unlike other larger projectors, the Eyeclops doesn't get hot, so it's safe for kids to handle.

Projector Fits in the Palm of Your Hand
Going on a road trip? The projector unit weighs less than a pound and measures a compact 2 x 3.5 x 2.5 inches (H x W x D), so kids can easily take it along for all kinds of adventures. The projection stand features a convenient belt clip in addition to a portable battery pack that provides approximately 270 minutes of projection time -- more than enough for an outdoor screening!

The Darker the Room, the Clearer the Image
Whether you're projecting a film on the ceiling of your bedroom or a video game inside of your tent, the key to a clear image is a dark environment. Kids will find that even a little daylight makes the screen dim and blurry. For best results, the projector should be positioned within several feet of the projection surface, and all light sources should be covered.

Because the Eyeclops' on-board speakers may not provide the same quality of audio that your home speakers do, the projector features a mini-jack audio output that allows you to connect it to headphones or external speakers. Additionally, while standard RCA cables (not included) are sufficient to connect most devices to the Eyeclops, certain media players and handheld devices may require special connector cables that can be purchased separately.

piece of junk
I wanted to rate it NO Stars but it wouldnt let me so just remember I didnt want to even give it ONE star. Bought this at the end of 2009 but didnt try it out until this past weekend. It lasted 5 minutes when the light burned out.Sealed case so no way to replace the bulb. From what i could tell in that 5 minutes the sound quality was poor at best and the clarity of the projection was less than to be desired. Dont buy this JUNK projector.


Wow. Avoid.
Wow I can't believe that there are companies that send this kind crap out on the market. It doesn't even do what its advertised. The screen is so blurry, you can kind of just make out general details even under the best focusing. It also needs to be completely pitch dark to have any kind of viewing ability. I thought the 1star reviews were BSing, that it couldn't be that bad, well it was. I knew it was too good to be true at this price.


Great for outdoor music fun!
I bought this to take camping for a Phish concert..... We draped a white sheet over our tent, and connected this to the outputs on the "brain" unit of my in-dash DVD player in my jeep. We played concert videos with the top-off the jeep, and had crowds of kids (not in the under-18 sense) gather to drink, dance, and party away! This was certainly a hit! I was thinking of taking my expensive HD-projector from my home theater, but didn't want to risk damaging it etc, and my in-dash isn't capable of HD content anyways, so I didn't see the purpose. (but the idea of a 150+ inch screen is still one I'm contemplating for future trips)

Only con, is the 'cheap' construction of it, but with the price, it can't be beat.


Good idea, Bad deal
Well, that was not i expect, it needs a totaly dark room for working well, if the screem is around two meter far from it, it's imposible to see the image cearly, i know, it's a toy, but i was expecting something more, it works, but not as well as i thougth, it is a very good idea, but not a good deal for us, because the screem needs to be near from it or will be almost imposible to identify the image... In my opinion, that's not a big deal...


Awesome for a toy
Got it fast with prime (under 24 hrs)... kids dig it ... works only in complete darkness... battery life ok.
