Sanyo PLC-XU115 Projector

Our review on the Sanyo PLC-XU115 Projector

The Sanyo PLC-XU115 achieves a bright 4,500 lumens thanks to a number of advanced technologies in their optical engine and a 275 - W lamp. Approaching the brightness of many large, multi-lamp models, these advanced projectors are suited to a wide range of applications in event halls, classrooms, and meeting rooms.

A innovative feature of the PLC-XU115 is it can project images whilst it is tilted 360 degrees around its horizontal axis in either direction - for more flexible setup.(NOTE: Be sure to set the lamp control to High and the fan control to MAX in the setting menu when the projector is inclined between +40 degrees and +140 degrees to the horizontal plane.)
