Recommendations for Pico/mini projector

[simon43]

I'm flying over from Myanmar at the end of this month to spend a few weeks in Bangkok.  I have a list of items to buy that I cannot source in Myanmar.

 

One such item is a pico or mini LED/laser projector that I can use in a classroom to project images or videos onto the wall, so that my students can view these more easily than crowding around my laptop screen.

 

I realise that pico/mini projectors usually have a lower lumens value, so that the projected image may need to be viewed with the lights off and windows shades closed.

 

I will not be using the projector to display text, only pictures for my KG kids, or videos for them to sing along to.

 

I visited Pantip Plaza in January, but only found standard-sized, mains powered projectors for 20,000+ baht

 

I note that Lazada stocks a range of mini projectors, and I could arrange for shipping to my hotel (if the product can be shipped within a few days)

 

Can anyone recommend a specific projector model that is available in Thailand?  I don't have enough time to purchase from Ebay, but Lazada in-stock products would be fine.

 

Especially, I would like a projector that has a rechargeable battery, so that I do not need to have a trailing power lead.

 

SD card, even wi-fi capability would also be great.

 

Suggestions or advice about this?  Thanks

Maybe a bit over the top for your needs Simon, but Piyanas has the 1920x1080 Sony VPL-HW40ES projector for screen sizes of 40" to 300" on sale for 64,900 baht.

See here.

 

Alternatively, Lazada have the 800x480 Nanotech SD50 Plus projector for screen sizes of 32" to 120" for 2,590 baht.

See here.

 

You probably want something in between.

Check out Lazada's full range here.

Pay particular attention to the effective resolution... you do not want to be projecting a blurry image.

 

There are "smart projectors" out there which combine an Android box with WiFI with a projector, but these are usually running older and non-upgradeable versions of Android. Better to have a separate Android box which connects to your wifi and leave the projector alone to do its job.

Have a look at the Vivitek range they start from about 10,000 baht, Lazada have the full range was looking to buy one but decided to go with an Android projector so I could connect a bluetooth speaker.
