I am installing a map board where I work and I need some advice on a projector. After visiting with Ryan Pream at The City of College Station and actually seeing their dual projector setup, I have decided to install two projectors stacked. One projector will display the top half of the map and the other one will display the bottom half. I work for a small electric utility and our system is about 100 miles North to South and 50 miles West to East. That is why I need the 4:6 ratio. Anyway, my criteria are as follows from most important to least important(but still very important):


1. Resolution (Minimum SXGA)

2. Bulb Life (projector will run 24/7)

3. Price (Maximum $20,000)

4. Screen Door Effect (Could probably live with LCD)


Thanks for you help and another thanks to Ryan for showing us around today.

Personally I have no suggestion for you, but you might want to try inputting those numbers of yours into the projector database of www.projectorcentral.com

Try JVC 3010 (or whatever the new model that sucks for home theater is) aimed straight up (JVC/T. Stites says ok for g11, ask about 3010) with a first surface mirror (search thread for sources) at a 45 degree angle to get 9 x 16 image. Or stack 2 as you suggest. No screen door, uxga, cheap bulb, lousy video contrast. Search thread for model # and reviews.
