Buying projectors — common questions

How many lumens do you need?

For a genuinely dark room, brightness is rarely the constraint. For daytime or bright-room viewing, treat 3,000+ claimed lumens as the entry ticket — and remember every figure here is the manufacturer's own rating, delivered in its brightest mode, not calibrated output. The bright-room guide, and every projector we track ranked by stated lumens.

Do UST projectors need a special screen?

Yes, non-negotiably: a UST fires steeply upward, so it needs a lenticular ceiling-light-rejecting (CLR) screen built for that geometry — on a standard-gain or ordinary ALR screen the image washes out. Our compatibility engine flags exactly this pairing. Browse UST-ready screens.

How far back does a projector need to sit?

Its throw ratio times the image width you want — throw ratio is distance divided by image width, so a 1.5 ratio needs about 15 feet to fill a 10-foot-wide picture, and a zoom lens gives you a range instead of one figure. Our throw distance table works it out for every projector we track at each mount distance from 8 to 20 feet. It is geometry over stated ratios only: it will not tell you whether the projector clears your ceiling.

Laser or lamp?

Laser light sources are typically rated for tens of thousands of hours and hold brightness longer; lamp models cost less up front but consume replaceable lamps over time. Where a model's lamp life or replacement cost is unstated in our data, we say so rather than doing invented total-cost math.
