What Should You Consider Before You Purchase?

Welcome to Projector Tips
Just like any technology, purchasing projectors for your school, business or home can be overwhelming. So we have created a list of a few things to consider before making your purchase.

• Maintenance costs – Will there be additional costs to maintain the projector? How much are the bulbs and filters?
• Picture settings – Does the projector offer multiple surface settings so the image can be projected on multiple surfaces (blackboard, whiteboard, concrete wall)
• Speaker wattage – This is only important for rooms where the projector will project the sound. Projectors can have speaker that range in 1 watt to 10 watts.
• Mounting – Does the projector allow it to be mounted with a universal bracket?
• Networkable – Allows management from a central location. (Checking lamp life and other settings)
• Throw – How far does the projector need to be from the image surface. If you are replacing a mounted projector, will the new projector have the same throw?
