EIKI SL-2 16 mm projector

Post by superadio »

I just got this projector into the house. Not tested yet. Does anyone has something to say about it? Is it ok projector, or bad one? It looks brand new to me, I picked it up for about 160 USD.

I love slot load projectors which are manual loading. I have an EIKI SL projector myself and is my main one for the theater. Anytime there's trouble, it'll correct itself as opposed to autoloads which tend to jam. You can also play a film partially and just pull it out and rewind it.

When you load it, make sure you have a good thread before closing the gate and it should run fine.
