Mark Kapfer (ID: 0000008f5d3792e6) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/24/2020 Attempt to use a LightCast stick on our InFocus in the conference room and it works about 1 out of every 3 days. It especially has issues with windows 10. iOS seems to work all the time but I am truely amazed at how bad the lightcast products are for the insane price they carry
