The problem is that from experience I find that they heat the room to 12,000° and they have an internal fan that goes werrrrrrrrrrr all lesson.

I suppose a better modern equivalent would be to just have a drawing tablet plugged into the computer. Also that way you can actually save the results rather than having random pieces of paper that might get lost.

You could make an overhead projector with an led light source.

It is like with vinyl, the incandescent bulb produces the better result.

The whole reason you had those problems was due to shitty incandescent or halogen lights inside of the projector. You swap that out with modern high power LEDs and your complains basically disappear.
