InFocus IN72 480p DLP projector with 92" 16:9 screen

$978 - $379 coupon INFOCUSOUTLET - $200 rebate = $399

it's not high-end by any means...but $400 for a projector and 92" screen? seems worthwhile to me

thank you slickdeals

weak native resolution

looks like someone is trying to flip the deal that they got on woot.com in that first ebay link

with the projector only having a max of 900 lumens of brightness, just be sure that the room you are going to be using it in is dark whenever you are going to watch tv or a movie or anything really

my projector has 1800 lumens and during the day just the sunlight through the blinds reduces the quality of the picture by alot

i'd personally hold out for a deal on something with a higher brightness and native resolution

good luck with it if you do buy it

the in72 is plenty bright for movie watching.

your 1800 rated lumens must be for broadcasting an excel spreadsheet which is obviously not the settings you would use for watching any kind of movie.

No projector can project black. Room setup/lighting is obviously most important not lumens.

I didnt mean transmit verrrrrrry little light. What i meant was nothing can create a complete absorbtion of light in another area. You cant shine anything at a wall and make it look darker than it did before.
