## Questions & Answers

**Q: May I ask why has the nightlight feature been disabled?  It seems to be an impressive feature.**
A: No nightlight now bc too complex, yet the cost didnt go down? Shame. Was mainly interested in this for the nightlight as I work from home in a dark office cave. The nightlight, and stellarium, would have made an excellent vibe. I'll save myself $300 and get the Sega one instead since this one now doesn't include basically the one feature that sets it apart. Heck even a standalone stellarium nightlight and the Sega homestar flux can be had for under half the price of this. I think I'll do that. I'd only buy this if it got closer to the Sega price. $350 or under. Not enough value otherwise, no matter the sales pitch.

**Q: Could this work for educational purposes? I teach space science to 8th grade students.**
A: Hi Eileen,
  Not to kill a sale here but I don't the DS1 would be the best choice for 8th graders. If it's used in the classroom I think it will be very hard to get the room dark enough to highlight what the DS1 can show. I might suggest the Homestar Flux which they have improved. And if you replace the stock discs with some of our replacement discs we sell for the Flux it will give you a really great view of the night sky plus at half the price of the DS1 you would have extra $$ to buy additional discs. We have a selection of over 30 discs for the Flux.
Thanks
Chris

**Q: Now that your shipping internationally will this work with a step down converter? 240 volt? When is the night light coming back?**
A: Hi Matthew
A step down transformer will not work. We have had several customers try this and it blew the electronics in the DA1. We do have international adapters available
   
The nightlight feature was discontinued for several reasons. The main one was there was very little interest in it. Out of the 2,000 projectors we sold we only had a handful of people even mention it with several saying they never used it. The nightlight feature also added a lot of complexity and cost to the DS1. If we bring out the nightlight feature on the next run we will make it available as an upgrade for our customers that don't have it. The next run is at about 18 months away.
Thanks,
Chris

**Q: I purchased this its nice but makes a lot of noise. I emailed them dead link. My questions are does this thing normally sound like a jet?**
A: I am sorry for the problem. It should make almost no noise. We are ones building them not China and we run every one for 20 hours. All I can figure is something happened in shipping. Did you purchase from Amazon or us directly? Please let me know your order number. I will send you another one along with a prepaid label to send the old one back. You can always contact me directly at: Christopher.miller@snet.net
Again my apologies for the problem
Chris
