Does anyone have the dimensions of the HS-10? I only have 13' from wall to wall, so I am trying to determine what size screen I can have with HS-10, especially considering its throw ration, after factoring in its length and clearance on the back (I will assume 6" since the exhaust is in the front).

14" front to back. 13.5" across at widest point.

Ugghh, that does not bode well since that leaves me with just over an 11' throw. I need to go get the spreadsheet, but I believe that 11' only allows for a screen less than 90" diag. Man, the search continues I guess....


Why can't anyone else make a WXGA resolution at this price point!

Also, Uther, you can get a short throw conversion lens. This would greatly increase your picture size.


I know members here have found them for less than $300.

True, but by the time I spend $300 on the short throw lens and $200 to get the filter to improve the black level, I could practically by the Epson TW100.

I'm currently using my HS10 in a 19x14.5 room, and throwing across the shorter width. The PJ is about a foot out from the wall, giving about a 12.5 ft throw.


I've gotten up to an 88" wide image, and I wouldn't want to go much bigger because I can currently just barely make out the screendoor effect on really bright scenes. I definately recommend sitting 1.5 X screen width or farther on that PJ.


Who knows, I may be more sensative to screendoors that you are...
