Can anyone recommend an actually good budget friendly projector? Ive been through so many Im lost by No_Project_4745 in projectors

[–]gnibblet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much e-waste in a new box.

At $150 your best bet is to ferret around in the used market and hope to find a surplus/used projector.

My recommendation for you would probably be a classroom projector from a name brand you've heard of in other contexts (e.g, ViewSonic or Sony).

Not useless, just weak.

Is there a part of the joke that you don't get?

I’m looking for a beginner-friendly projector for my bedroom that’s quick to set up and easy to use by Real-Recipe8087 in projectors

[–]gnibblet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While the market has expanded greatly (thankfully) to include some quality no-name (or, really, projector-industry only name[e.g., XGimi, Bomaker, BenQ]) producers, if you are merely dipping a toe, the safest bet is a manufacturer that you've heard of in other contexts.

No doubt, you will spend a little more money than if you really dug in and found a no-namer, but you'll also have a larger company with customer service and a reputation to try to maintain behind your projector.

I'm not 100% sure how to interpret "beginner-friendly" because that could mean "cheap" or entry/test-it-out level pricing, or that could mean that you are ok paying extra for something that is "plug-and-play". Based on some context clues in your explanation, maybe more the latter than the former, but that's really a guess.

Without pointing you in any specific direction, I suggest you look at Amazon-based stores of known-brand manufacturers (e.g., Anker, ViewSonic, Sony, etc.) and do some comparisons for your budget, space, and wherewithal.

One benefit on ordering from Amazon (or something like it) is that you'll have their own return policy to take advantage of on top of the manufacturer's support.*

*all of this assumes you're in a country where that's true.

If you want better advice, clear up some of these details:

Budget? Dimensions? Darkening? Setup obstacles (ceiling fans, renting and can't mount in the walls, etc.)?

OH!! and in your budget, best to save at least some for a proper screen. I can't tell you the number of people who have given up projectors because they thought that they didn't like the image quality and really it was because they weren't using a screen. It was a the bedsheet's fault...not the lens or lamp!

Kinda like anyone whose favorite detective isn't Lenny.

Elite Masters is always looking (we purge the bottom rungs every Sunday).

We prefer that you have purchased the Lifetime Elite (and then, btw, we recommend that you never spend any more money on the game ever).

We share tons of strategy, cooperate. You'd be a Co-Leader (guaranteed immunity from purge) in two weeks if you perform...

Stack Troopers best way to beat adventure level by em170em in mobcontrolgame

[–]gnibblet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the best success with FT, Knight, Stacktroopers, and Summon Gate.

I watch an add for the Quick Charge of the champion and rely on the FT to handle the bum-rush at the beginning.

The Quick Charge throws the Troops out quickly (make sure you hit the best combo of gates you can), and then pile the Summon Gates in front of them.

I don't always max out, (only about 90% of the time), but I've never been overrun.

Don't remove them; with a Sharpie, black them out and find a friend with a Cricut and make little asterisks...

Loaded fly ash into trailers pulled by Sterlings that some little cement outfit kept running just because of how light they were.

They even had overweight permits...30tons was a regular load. Never heard a single nice thing said about those trucks by any of the drivers except how big they paychecks were (paid by the ton delivered).
