Hi Andy on many Eiki Projectors you can loosen the screw that holds the cover to the main body. Inside you will see a rebber belt and a roller with two sizes, small and large. Adjust the belt to the other roller. It will change the speed, however, it is debatable which speed it is . Some say 16pfs some say 18fps. I do not recall it changing the density of the bulb, however, that could present another problem such as slight burning in the center.
