How to Choose an Image Projector

The wattage indicates the brightness and projection distance. Lower wattage units suit smaller rooms and shorter throw distances, while higher wattage models project sharply over longer distances or onto large surfaces.

Consider whether your install is indoors or outdoors. Some models in this category carry an IP rating for weather resistance, making them suitable for architectural facades, signage and outdoor events. Indoor models are typically used in theatres, broadcast studios, houses of worship and hospitality venues.

What Works Well with Image Projectors

Most projectors accept standard gobo sizes, though always confirm the holder diameter before ordering.

• DMX distribution and cabling for control integration
• Clamps and safety wire for overhead mounting
• Beam shaping accessories to refine the projection edge
• Road cases for units used in touring or temporary installs
