How many hours do you use your projector per day/week?

As the title says, i'm just curious to hear how frequently you use your projector. Is it daily? How many hours per day or per week?

I was thinking to watch one or two films per day.

All the unnecessary stuff I watch on youtube, I won't spend lamp hours on that. That will be on my 75" tv or laptop.

Do you feel the same? I'm new to all this. Within 6 months I bought a Wimius p62 pro, Elephas YG561, Voppls Q5 and a BenQ w2000 with low lamp hours.

So I will definitely use the BenQ for "special occasions" as in good movies. And need to get some spare bulbs soon.

I only have a Camrock 100" manual pull down screen, but I have ordered spandex etc to make a 130" spandex fixed frame screen, white spandex over black. Anyone here who has tried it? How is the image quality compared to a silver ticket etc?

Anyway, let me hear from y'all!

BenQ W2000 now. Next step?

I started with a Wimius p62 pro and then the Elephas yg561. No complaints so far, but honestly I spend more time researching refurbished projectors than actually using my three projectors. Way more time.

As the title says, I now have a BenQ W2000 with less than 500 lamp hours. What should be my next step?

Obviously I would need one or two bulbs extra, to future proof the projector, for myself or if i sell it later. I heard that Ruby bulbs are good value.

But what projector would the people on this sub recommend for me in the future?

I would assume it will not be a bulb projector, as I live in the EU. Also, 4K would be preferred for future proofing.

Budget maybe $1000. Could be a bit more, but not in the 2-3k league.

Room is 450 cm x 340 cm. The throw will be on the 450 cm distance. Wall mount would be preferred, as the ceiling is sloped. Blackout curtains and no lights, BUT, the walls, floor, ceiling are all light colored, but im considering some black Velvet or something.

Also, a 130" fixed frame screen would be the goal in the future, should fit on the 340 cm wall.

Anyone here who has experience with the w2000 ? Do you like the image quality? Is it decent to keep for this year?

Thanks in advance
