If you have plans of installing a projector anytime soon, then you are going to need the right tools for the job. No tool is more essential, however, than the right mount. Sure, you can simply place a projector on any flat surface, but things are so much more convenient when you can mount it on a surface, like your ceiling, keeping it out of the way.

Crimson AV has just begun shipping a trio of new mounts that are designed to make installing a projector easier and a lot more professional looking. The mounts come by way of Crimson AV’s JR Series and include the new JR, JR2 and JR3 SyncPro mounts.

The JR, which is the base model mount priced at $99, is a basic projector mount with two points of adjustment that affect both pitch and roll. In addition to that, this mount is also designed for smaller projectors under 50 lbs. and comes with a pre-assembled two-piece design complete with integrated cord management and 1.5″ NPT compatibility.

The mid-level model is the JR2. Like the JR, this mount is a two-piece model that is constructed entirely of steel. It has 12 adjustment points in total, six for pitch and six for roll, which means that this mount is capable of holding projectors that are slightly heavier than average or that something that is off center can stay in place. The JR2 is priced at $117 and works with projectors of up to 70 lbs.

The final mount in the JR series is the JR3 SyncPro. This mount comes with a lead screw mechanism, allowing for precise adjustments. All installation adjustments can be completed by rotating the knobs on the mount, which makes the overall process simple. Priced at $169, this mount is perfectly suited for any projector that exceeds 70 lbs and also has additional legs that allow you to expand the range and cover large or irregular mounting hole patterns.

If you need professional projector mounting, however, then there is no better place to turn than RentOurProjectors.com. RentOurProjectors.com has professionally trained installers that are capable of installing any size projector in any type of room and on any surface you need to mount it.

The global projector market did surprisingly well in 2012, thanks in no small part to large growth in emerging markets. This resulted in a slight growth in the market, bringing the total volume up to 9.5 million units according to Pacific Media Associates, a known projector market research specialist.

The mainstream projector category, which covers products in the 1,000 to 3,999 lumens range, benefited tremendously in Asian, Indian and Philippine markets. The Chinese market also saw a strong exit to the year with Brazilian markets having the same result.

However, spending cuts in North America as well as Western Europe affected the total projector sale. Thankfully, two mainstream segments beat the general weakness in the market, interactive and ultra short-throw projectors. These two segments were able to achieve robust growth all across the world with sales increasing by over 30%.

The 4,000+ lumen category also remained ahead of the mainstream segment during the year. Ultra-bright projector models, which typically find their niche in conference rooms or spacious venues, saw double-digit growth in sales while global shipments of d-cinema projectors came close to the 100,000 mark.

Finally, the New Era segment, which covers projectors of sub-1,000 lumens, saw sales of 1.7 million units across the globe. Pico Projectors, which are still a struggling market, saw subdued shipments during the earlier part of 2012, though did see a slight increase during the second half of the year, ultimately achieving growth of 35%. Sales of personal projectors also saw a strong yearly finish thanks to improved product choice in 500 lumen segment.

The projector market has remained strong throughout the years, despite other technologies rising and falling. The use of projectors for personal use, like in home entertainment centers, is becomingly increasingly popular as are using projectors for temporary reasons, like business meetings or for use in trade shows or conventions. Let’s hope 2013 sees as good, if not better, sales than 2012.

There are often times when you need to give a presentation and everything has to be perfect. Whether it is a big event for school or something to impress your boss, quality is key. It is times like these that call for a projector that sets its standards above the norm and goes above and beyond what you typically have to work with. I’m talking, of course, about an HD projector.

However, HD projectors are expensive, even more so than your standard projector, which means that a lot of people who could really benefit from everything an HD projector has to offer are stuck using that same old boring projector that everybody uses. If you find yourself in this situation,  you should consider renting an HD projector.

RentOurProjectors.com has a plethora of projector rentals as well as a wide variety of HD projector rentals that are perfect for any situation. RentOurProjectors.com also offers HD projector rentals from all of the top names in the industry, including Epson, ViewSonic, Sony, Hitachi, Toshiba and more.

RentOurProjectors.com also offers HD projector rentals for large venues as well, just in case you are planning a large private event or you need to show high-quality videos and images to audiences of hundreds or thousands of people.

Short-throw projectors are perfect for, well, exactly what their name implies, projecting large and clear images from very short distances. This ability allows short-throw projectors to work seamlessly in small, intimate settings like conference rooms or small meeting rooms. However, some short-throw projectors can be expensive and there isn’t always a need to have one, which makes renting a short-throw projector the perfect solution.

A lot of small business meetings take place in areas that do not have a lot of extra space to spare, making it an often cumbersome experience to lug around a big, bulky projector that you more than likely won’t even have adequate room for. Most projectors also require a certain amount of space for proper use, which can get in the way of the whole meeting.

This is one of the main reasons people look into a short-throw projector rental for their smaller meetings that are particularly important. However, short-throw projectors are good for other things too. A short-throw projector could be perfect in a classroom setting where you may only have certain areas that can be outfitted with a projector.

Family movie nights or other gatherings, like family reunions, block parties or weddings can also benefit from a short-throw projector. Not many people have a ton of space in their living rooms, at least not enough for a standard projector to be far enough away from the screen to have the best picture quality, which is where a short-throw projector really shows you what it is made of.

RentOurProjectors.com has been in the projector rental industry for over 25 years and knows all the different needs a projector user faces. Whether that be limited space or trying to project something to an audience of thousands, the right projector can make all the difference.

Hosting the next family reunion? Having trouble coming up with fun things to do? Tired of playing cornhole and watching your uncles throw water balloons at little kids? Why not spice things up with a 3D projector? Renting a 3D projector allows you to have a high-tech projector capable of letting you watch movies in amazing 3D, just as if you were at the movies!

As 3D technology continues to advance, the prospect of watching 3D movies right in your own home is becoming easier and easier. 3D projectors are being incorporated into more home entertainment centers as well as trade shows and conventions. A 3D projector could help make your product presentation at a trade show even more spectacular or make your family movie nights more enjoyable.

In order to have the full 3D experience, you not only need a 3D projector but also a 3D computer-rendered video/graphic or a stereoscopic recording. In addition to that, a polarization-preserving screen is required as it helps maintain the light polarization upon reflection. Thankfully, RentOurProjectors.com also rents 3D silver screens as well as computers equipped with 3D graphics cards to make sure you have everything you need for your next 3D presentation or movie night.

No matter what you need for a full 3D setup, RentOurProjectors.com can deliver. Not only will you get everything you need at a great price but you will also have your equipment delivered by a local technician who will set up and test everything for you to make sure it is all working properly. Once you’re finished, the technician will tear everything down and take it away for you, leaving the hassle of logistics off your shoulders.

So the next time you think 3D would really improve your business meeting, trade show or convention booth, presentation or family outing, consider a full 3D projector rental from RentOurProjectors.com.

People love going to the movies. It’s a simple fact. I mean, if it wasn’t true, movies like The Avengers wouldn’t be bringing in over $1 billion in profit. However, going to the movies can be expensive, especially if you have a big family. I know that when I used to take a girl on a date it would be no less than $40 for tickets and refreshments.

With ticket prices rising, a lot of families are turning to having movie nights at home, gathering friends and family around to relax and have some fun. However, nothing really says movie night like a projector and screen, which is why a lot of people look into renting a home theater projector.

A projector rental is a perfect way to bring friends and family together for a movie night. Not only do you get the benefit of saving money on overpriced tickets and refreshments but you also get the joy of not dealing with huge crowds of people, noisy theaters or the problem of your movie being sold out.

Projector rentals are also perfect for sporting events. Thinking of throwing a big Super Bowl party or watching the March Madness Finals? With a home theater projector rental you can throw the game up on a big screen and invite all your friends over to celebrate (or cry depending on who you are rooting for)!

Family reunions, weddings, birthday parties, you name it! A projector rental is perfect for all of those occasions. Home theater projector rentals allow you to have all the newest technology without having to pay a ton of money to get it, which is very enticing in this economy.

Rentourprojectors.com knows what it takes to make a movie night or Super Bowl party really special and is dedicated to giving you everything you need to make it so. If you need a temporary projector for any kind of event, you can’t go wrong with a company that has over 25 years of experience in the business.
