      Yep, DLP still uses a mechanical color wheel. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_light_processing?wp…

        Much to the chagrin of those of us who can see and are bothered by the colour flicker.

        Had a color wheel in a DLP TV explode on me. Fairly easy to replace but it was a pain to clean out all the glass.
