Search Results for ‘lumens’

I have no experience with projectors but would like to set up a simple home theater in our basement. I'm having a hard time analyzing how many lumens we need because of the many factors that appear to play into that decision. We have a below-ground basement with a few glass-block windows. The...

I just bought a light meter to measure the light output off PJ screen, but it measures in LUX , how can i easily convert to Lumens ? Thanks

Hello Folks, I wonder if anyone knows this. First a pet peeve, I wish sites like Projector Central would list a projectors lumens on their optimum setting (unless of course the "review" it in which case we see the lumens spread) Ex. The Panny AE8000 doesn't push out 2400 lumens on its...
