And what does refurbished mean? Are the lamps brand new?
I was wondering this too. Might be worth calling up Benq.
I had the previous model. Individual bulbs (minus the housing) would cost about $120
They are like $689 USD new on Amazon
Yeah, plus delivery, plus (probably) a voltage inverter.
No voltage change needed. I have one here that I bought in the USA (when the dollar was basically equal). Works great!
What is your point? Amazon is over $840 AU, straight conversion not factoring delivery.
He was probably attempting to reply to Iplau asking what's the usual price above.
Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.
Just saying as someone asked, postage is $30 voltage is 110 - 240V
mistake :P
Best money I've ever spend..love the W1070, but as usual, mounting is a pain and needs to be carefully considered by using the BenQ calculator here: http://www.benq.com/microsite/projector/throwratiocalculator… as it is not that flexible in this regard.
How did you mount yours? Thoughts about the sound levels? Was considering getting one of these and an Xbox One… would be a great combo I think :P
Mine is mounted on my rear wall via a projector bracket like one of these (http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Universal-DLP-LCD-Projector-Mount…). Throw distance of around 4.1 Meter giving a size of around 120". Games are great, just had a look at some 3D games on XBox 360 and it really nice.
http://www.officeworks.com.au/shop/officeworks/brateck-prb-1… - this one works. $59 from ebay:

Same brand so ignore the listing name. The box it comes in has brateck on it. I got mine in 2 days from ebay, havent installed thought (waiting on screen to come) but it does fit on the w1070. Good for those who needs the extra drop.
How do you hide the cables be it mounted on a wall or ceiling.
or basically do you have to go down the mechanical route:

@chriskq: wireless hdmi, but will need to add a power point on a nearby wall. Double storey house so running inside ceiling isn't possible where I need the power point.
Mounting is easy. Just get the right one from Selby and all it takes is an hour. I think there is less than 10 available so anyone wants one be quick.
Hi
I bought this one and thinking to get the Ceiling mounting from Selby. Could you please let me know which one did you bough or which is good for Ceiling?
I am thinking to get the Screen as well, probablly over 100". Could you please suggest me?
Thanks
Just go with a nice, flat, white(ish) wall to start with (assuming you have a suitable wall size).
Screens are great and all, but they cost a bomb for a decent one and the improvement over a decent wall is marginal given the money..

I didn't get a screen too expensive and I don't have time to DIY
@wtfnodeal: Thanks Mate
If someone wants the short throw -look at this one https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/178191
why neg -was just trying to help
Dont worry about being negged, i dont think it means anything unless you are the sensitive type!
Exactly, otherwise JV wouldn't keep coming back
What were you guys smoking? I want some
Supposed to be an excellent projector. Full reviews and specs:

If you want this but it wont fit into your setup get the w1300 a little more expensive but more placement flexibility.
Do you need BENQ's 3D glasses for 3D on this unit?
I see you can get the right one's of ebay.
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/144Hz-3D-DLP-Link-IR-Active-Shutt…
Same seller, but works out cheaper…

One thing worth noting is these things put out a LOT of heat. I love mine, but I don't get it out much during summer for this reason.
Out of stock
Out of stock now.
showing " out of stock " to me
I bought one previously, spoke to the techs first most have not even 1hr use on bulb firmware is updated to 1.08 and is a Fantastic Projector!!! Love it…
use these calibration settings
https://www.avforums.com/threads/benq-w1070-reviewer%C2%92s-…
Got one just in time by the looks. Now to work out the best connection arrangement to swap out my 63" Sammy plasma. All my AV gear's at the front!
Should only need to run HDMI and power to the projector.
I have a 1080 St (The short throw version of the 1070) and I love it.
Speakers on it suck but that is to be expected. 700 bucks is a steal though :D
I am so glad these are out of stock. What do we say to ozbargain costing us $700? Not today!
I've had mine for over a year, if you have the right space and lighting control for one of these, there is absolutely no reason to get a TV. This thing is 120"+ of pure awesomeness. The picture quality barely even had to be calibrated, just ever so slightly. However if you don't have a calibration tool the default straight from the factory is pretty much perfect. Stick it in Eco mode and you're off!
Games, 3D, and full HD blu-ray, the whole lot. Your own personal cinema!
Highly recommend investing in a proper sound system too, don't buy a "Home theatre package" from the store, get a real receiver and slowly add speakers.
These will probably start to see more regular deals seeing as the 4K models are bound to come in.
+1 to Eco mode…
Extra Lamp life at the cost of barely noticeable decrease in light output.
Back in stock again…
Just wondering if you received your order already, and how it's going if you have received it.
Thanks :-).
Whats their usual price?
