    As the title explains, I want to buy a cheap projector and my wife showed me one for $47, but the Lumens was a measly 60 and the rez was like 480/330 (barely VCR quality) I found some $80 ones with 1200 Lumens and Hi Def 1920/1080 rez which is good, supposedly it can handle a 120” screen.
    What do I need for the kids to watch movies in the back yard? I intend to buy a cheap portable screen also..so what do I need in Lumens to pull this off? Thanks so much

    3000 ansi is recommended for indoor, so at least that as a minimum - picos are useless as are these cheapo chinese projectors - wont get anything decent for under $300
