Did you know that you can coordinate your projection screen’s drop and rise with your projector’s power cycle?  Elite produces a 5-12-volt trigger that will do just that. Turn the projector on; the screen drops down.  Turn the projector off; the screen retracts back into its casing. There is also some useful information on sizing up a screen for your installation.

Transcripts:

• [18:49]        Rick: Hello, how may I help you.
• [18:49] Customer: Hello. I am looking for a projector screen for my Epson HC4000 projector. I have about 137 inches of wall to project. But also would have to place my AV rack near the same wall. I am looking to see what screen would best fit the wall. I am looking for tab tension as well.
• [18:53]        Rick: Hello, here is a model that i can recommend.  It’s our Cinetension 2 tab-tensioned electric screen. https://elitescreens.com/front/front/productdetail/product/74

• [19:01] Customer: Okay. Let me check
• [19:03] Customer: I don’t think I can fit this. as i said i am looking for something that can fit after i place the AV unit. which i am guessing would take up about 23 inches. So all i have is about 115 inches
• [19:03] Customer: What screen uses about 115 inches and provides the most screen space for 16:9 ratio
