Elite also makes commercial grade projector screens for large venue applications. In this discussion, service team member Johnny breaks down the discussion to learn what a customer needs and with every step of the discussion, the customer reveals more information to allow Johnny to find the right screen for her.

Transcripts:

  • [22:11]        Rick: hello my name’s Rick how may I help you?
  • [22:11] MONICA: Hi. I’m looking for a 200″ motorized screen for a large warehouse environment. I have a 16:9 (HDTV) projector.
  • [22:13]        Rick: Yes, here is one of our series that provides this size of screen. It is a large motorized projector screen
  • [22:13]        Rick: http://eliteproav.com/product/saker-plus-series/
  • [22:14]        Rick: This is from our Elite ProAV line of Commercial grade screens for professional installers.
  • [22:14]        Rick: Here is the model number. SK200XHW2. It’s 200” with a 16:9 aspect ratio.
  • [22:15] MONICA: Great, and this will work in a constantly lit room? I have no option of darkening the area. It’s a gymnasium and it is very bright.  What can I do about ambient light?
  • [22:17]        Rick: The best recommendation I can provide, is to look into the projector performance in lumen output. Since this is just a standard white projector screen, it will look fine with light control but will wash out with the lights on.
  • [22:17] MONICA: projector is a JVC with 5000 lumens specification.
  • [22:18] MONICA: Someone told me about a grey scale screen which works best in a brightly lit environment….is that something that Elite carries?
  • [22:19]        Rick: Yes, we do have screens with ambient light reflective properties. But the one I can recommend at that size is a fix frame screen only.
  • [22:19] MONICA: Oh I see. May I have that model # please?
  • [22:19]        Rick: You will need a dedicated wall for this screen. If you choose a motorized version that we have, it is smaller than 200″.
  • [22:19]        Rick: R200DHD5
  • [22:20] MONICA: yes we do have a dedicated wall.
  • [22:20] MONICA: thank you
  • [22:21]        Rick: This screen uses the Cinegrey 5d with 1.5 gain reflectivity.  It is also specially designed to filter out off-axis light.
  • [22:21] MONICA: Thank you so much
  • [22:21]        Rick: It’s my pleasure to help.
  • [22:22] MONICA: What is the maximum size for motorized light reflective?
  • [22:23]        Rick: It is 135″ diagonal screen. Here is the product link.
  • [22:23]        Rick: http://elitescreens.com/front/front/productdetail/product/36
  • [22:23]        Rick: So there is an option, 200” fixed frame
  • [22:23] MONICA: got ya
  • [22:23] MONICA: thanks again
  • [22:28]        Rick: you’re welcome, have a great day.
