My favorite rechargeable star projector is cheaper than it's ever been this Black Friday
This Pococo Galaxy Star Projector gives the more expensive competition a run for their money — and it's less than $80 this Black Friday.
Remember when the only time you'd see a planetarium was on a school trip? Now, with the aid of this Pococo Galaxy Star Projector, you can transform any room into a realistic depiction of the cosmos. Even better, it's my favorite rechargeable star projector, allowing you to take it from room to room, and this Black Friday, it's down to just $76, a saving of $16.
Get the Pococo Galaxy Star Projector right now at Amazon for just $76.
I think the Pococo Galaxy Star Projector is the best value rechargeable star projector, and it's an absolute breeze to use, too. Even very young children can happily operate it, letting it lull them to sleep with its projections. It includes two discs, but it can be expanded with other reasonably-priced disc sets.
In my Pococo Galaxy Projector review, I found it gave the pricier Sega Homestar Flux a run for its money, and now that it's the cheapest it's ever been, it's a great buy, either for yourself or as a gift to be put away till the holidays.
Save $14 on the best rechargeable star projector, which punches well above its price point. Expandable with additional discs, the Pococo Galaxy Projector projects actual photographic images of cosmic scenes, making it more educational than other mood-light style projectors.

With a lifelong love of the night sky, Tantse knows the cosmos and has put star projectors, telescopes and more through their paces at Space.

The Pococo Galaxy Star Projector gives pricier projectors a run for their money and, with two projection discs, Diamond Stars and Westerlund2, it's got everything you need to transform a room into a mini-planetarium. Want to see more of the galaxy? You can purchase additional discs for $38 for six discs, which is surprisingly reasonable.
I think it's the best value rechargeable star projector suited to adults and children alike. In my review of the Pococo Galaxy Star Projector, I praised its "Bright, colorful and sharp imagery," near-silent operation and the fact that it can be operated without the need to mess about with an app.
Its slides are static, but as you watch them rotate, you'll be thoroughly relaxed. The image quality is excellent, especially when compared to the likes of the Sega Homestar Flux. At this low price, it's hard to go wrong.
