Looking for a bright projector? This isn't it.
Be careful when purchasing this projector. The seller claims it 6000 lumens, but when I turned it on it was really dim, so used a light meter to get a true reading. The meter showed 6000 lux / 188 lumens. The only way I could get a 6000 lux reading was to measure the output right from the lens, not the recommended projected distance. Companies like Epson, View Sonic, etc published lumens are based on the light hitting the screen at the recommended distance and largest picture size. There is a big difference between lux and lumens. A 3000+ lumen projector can be used in a fully lit room. At 188 lumen you need a dark room to get enough brightness. I don't know if something got lost in translation but I can tell you with 100% assurance this is not a 6000-lumen projector. My first clue should have been the price as most 5000+ lumen projectors start at $1000. Once I realized it had been misrepresented in the specs, I sent it back.
