Despite a disappointing World Cup (unless you’re from Holland!) there is still one English winner. To celebrate the release, and popularity, of the Adapt 450 Pro we set a competition to see how you would use the Worlds first micro projector with in built Digital TV and 150 inch screen to watch the football.

Congratulations go to Gordon, from Selby - who gave us the best answer. He proved that even though we wouldn’t end up watching the football, we could always use the Adapt 450 Pro for so many other things. Gordon wins a FREE Gorilla Tripod worth £30!

Congratulations on winning the tripod! What made you enter the Adapt 450 Pro World Cup competition?

Gordon

Thank you very much. I was told by a friend to read the Adapt 450 Pro blog and leave a comment, and by doing so I would be entered into the competition. I thought why not, and if I win I can put the tripod to good use.

Katie

How do you feel knowing you’ve won?

Gordon

I feel honored, and also excited as I’ve never won anything before.

Katie

It was a really thought out answer. But, you mentioned that you’re not a football fan, did you watch the England games at all?

Gordon

Yes I watched parts the game against Germany to see if we made the final 16

Katie

The competition was to celebrate the release of the Adapt 450 Pro - The worlds first 100 lumen pico projector with on board Digital TV, 1.5hour battery, USB and SD card connections, 150 inch screen and 4w speakers. What is your favourite feature?

Gordon

The built in Digital TV has to be my favourite feature, as it means you can free up space where your TV would be and get a bigger picture.

Katie

You are obviously a keen movie fan. Can you tell me the ideal situation you’d use the Adapt 450 Pro for?

Gordon

I’d definitely use the Adapt 450 Pro for watching films. It’s got the large cinema style screen feel, it won’t cost you £15 to sit next to the annoying person opening sweets, and bobbing up and down of peoples head as they let someone out to use the loo. Also I’d use it for going on Xbox Live. The size of the screen helps a lot. You can see that sneeky enemy far quicker, plus it’ll draw you into the game and give you feeling that you are actually there.

Katie

Well thanks for your time Gordon! Don’t forget to tell all your friends about your win!!

Gordon

Thanks Katie, I will.
