Need help sourcing a cheap, BRIGHT, DLP projector...

Hey guys. It's surprisingly hard to shop for what I'm looking for, so I'm asking for help. Here's what I need:

- DLP projector. Must be DLP, cannot be LCD.
- HDMI input
- As bright as possible; 3000 lumens or more

I really don't care about anything else. Low resolution is just fine. Poor image quality is fine, too... just needs to be "good enough".

This is hard to shop for because most projectors, despite them being labeled as DLP, are actually LCD. Additionally, a lot of these projectors that are truly DLP are extremely high end with things I simply don't need and am not willing to pay for.

This is not for a home theater. I will be using this for some special effects in my totally over-engineered Xmas light show. On top of it being pretty cool, I use the show as a way to inspire kids to go into STEM fields. 🙂

So that said, I was hoping to keep this as cheap as possible. Used is also okay, but I'm really not sure which cheap used ones are reliable.

Thanks for the help!
