Eiki LC-X85



LCD XGA 7000 ANSI Lumen Projector + Long Throw Lens

This projector ended up being the perfect solution to my problem. Or I guess you could say the only solution to my problem. My church was in need of a projector replacement and I was given the task of researching the market and finding an adequate one.

Here were the requirements:
-60 ft. Throw Distance
-108" X 81" Image Size (4:3 Aspect Ratio)
-At Least 6000 ANSI Lumens
-Less than $10,000 Price Tag

The one difficult spec to accommodate was the price. There are plenty of manufacturers out there that make products to meet the needs above, Christie, Panasonic, Digital Projection & Projection Design to name a few. The problem is they cost anywhere from $20,000 - $50,000. The Eiki LC-X85 had the functionality and it had the right price. The final price came in at $7000 for the projector & $1500 for the long throw lens for a total of $8500. The budget was met and the church now had a brighter fully functional projector. I should mention that I had to shop around to find the best price and the first few dealers I checked with did not have much knowledge of the market and gave me an estimate that was way too high. Eventually I found a great deal through HB Communications. The Eiki has been up and running for 2 months now and no problems to report.
