Did you get your projector to wor? what did you do if it has been resolved? Did you update the firmware? if so how?
I am experiencing the exact same issue with my LP70+

HELP! My iLM300 (IBM) [which, except for the label, is a Infocus LP70) is shutting down after anywhere from 10 seconds to 30 minutes of use. At first I thought it was the bulb (1100 hours +), and this was its way of saying 'sayanora', so at a considerable expense, I replaced it, and guess what. It still kept blinking out after a short time. I assume it is from overheating. So, as instructed with computer fans, I gave them a drop of light machine oil at the axel (there are two 40mm fans inside near the bulb set into a custom fitting, not apparently replaceable with standard computer fans). While in there (yes, I opened the case, voiding any warranty - which had expired last month anyways) I cleaned out accumulated dust. Neither did the trick. :-(
What did work was blowing canned air into the intake slowly, but hey, that would really be awkward when watching a two hour movie (And canned air ain't cheap). Soooo, I rigged up an 80mm 12V fan to the exhaust, to really suck the air through. STILL DIDN'T WORK!
Does anyone have experience with this, or is there a tempature sensor that can be replaced? I don't have the cash to buy another projector! I've loved this little power house and can't figure out what went wrong.
