How to Choose Lumens

Brightness (Lumens)
The brightness of a projector is measured in ANSI Lumens—a standard unit of light output. Choosing the right lumen rating depends on the room lighting, screen size, and audience size.



Lumens Categories

🔹 Less than 1000 Lumens

  • Use Case: Entry-level, budget projectors

  • Best For: Small, dark rooms only

  • Limitations:

    • Requires a dark or dimly lit environment

    • Image easily washed out by ambient light

🔹 1000 – 2000 Lumens

  • Use Case: Standard business or small classroom projectors

  • Best For: Conference rooms & classrooms with some light control

  • Performance:

    • Works in rooms with dimmed lights

    • Adequate brightness for medium-sized screens

🔹 2000 – 3000 Lumens

  • Use Case: High-performance portable/semi-portable projectors

  • Best For: Large classrooms & conference rooms

  • Performance:

    • Handles moderate ambient light

    • Supports larger audiences and bigger screens

    • Image remains sharp and bright

🔹 More than 3000 Lumens

  • Use Case: Ultra-bright projectors for professional and large venues

  • Best For: Auditoriums, churches, concerts, nightclubs, and training halls

  • Performance:

    • Works even with strong ambient light

    • Produces vivid, clear images on very large screens

    • Typically more expensive

✅ Quick Tip:

  • Home Theater (dark room) → 1000–1500 Lumens

  • Business/Classroom → 2000–3000 Lumens

  • Large Venues → 3000+ Lumens
