I know some will say throw it in the dumpster but I have little budget for my hobbies. I am building a portable projector system with an E-7 that is to screen my own film (dailies) and might be used for an occasional outdoor screening. I have an H-20 I just opened the box on and the snood glass is broken. Is that glass even available? I'm wondering if I can fit a strong conversion in it or if I could even get one. I understand the phoenix won't fit.

Thanks for any help

The shell of an H-20 is not tall enough for a Phoenix plenum but the Big Sky optical bench I believe does fit. Don't bother with the Strong conversion... its not worth the expendature for the little gain in light.
