Good to know

Produced in the late 1970s to early 1980s in the Lithuanian SSR, this projector is a testament to durable Soviet-era engineering. It operates on 220V AC and consumes 150W, so a step-up transformer may be needed in regions with 110V mains. The silent design means it's perfect for adding your own soundtrack or narration during screenings.
