With the flying-time, a legion of companies are taking a crack at developing a sturdy projector noted due to bright images, green features, and quick start and shutdown. In accordance, NEC has recently rolled out two new professional installation projectors dubbed the NP2200 and the NP1200. The stalwart NP Installation Series models are designed for bright light output for larger screens with a lighter effect on users’ pocket.
The NP2200 exhibits a high level of brightness at 4200 ANSI lumens while NP1200 features an output of 3700 lumens, looming in as quite bright and suitable projectors for corporate sector and higher education environment as well. Executed to be energy-efficient, both the models consume a low 0.4W rating in standby mode by taking in Eco Mode Technology for saving energy and utilizing less power. Now, users can even switch between settings through a green Eco Mode button on the remote control with minimal efforts.
The devices further come equipped with an optional bayonet style lenses for quick and easy exchange.
