My Bell & Howell model 567's are portable machines. I don't have any pictures of the model 567, but I do have some of the model 566 (it's baby brother with a smaller projection lamp).

These projectors sit on top of a special power supply box that operates the arc lamp. The power supply is about 4" high and matches the outer dimensions of the projector. The projector has a special power cord that plugs into the power supply. Then the power supply plugs into an ordinary 120 volt wall outlet. I can patch the projector speaker output into external sound systems if needed.

Here's the power supply for my model 567 projectors. This puts out a 9,000 volt spark to ignite the lamp.
