126″ Ultra Short Throw Projector Screen
Dimensions of an exactly 126″ diagonal 16:9 aspect ratio projected image are 109.9″ wide by 61.7″ high. The recommended distance for viewing an ultra short throw projector and 126″ projection screen is within the 12.6′ to 18.9′ range.
Check out the 126″ diagonal ultra short throw projector screen featured below. It is a wall/ceiling mount electric motorized drop-down UST screen. I dislike the idea of setting an expensive ultra short throw projector directly on the floor, and thus will not include a floor-rising screen on this page.
126″ Motorized Drop-Down Lenticular
Lowering and rising on command to provide a tab-tensioned flat, taut, and ripple-free projection surface, the Elite Screens STT126XH-CLR5 Starling Tab-Tension 126″ diagonal electric motorized drop-down ultra short throw projector screen uses StarBright CLR 5 screen material with a lenticular sawtooth micro-structure to reflect a UST projector’s image back to you while also absorbing up to 80% of ceiling overhead ambient light. It features 0.8 gain and a 170° viewing angle.
Included are a pair of wall brackets for flush wall or ceiling installation, as well as a pair of eye-bolt screws that attach to the top of the case for suspended ceiling installation. Must be plugged into an AC outlet for power. Programmable vertical drop position for precise installation. SWIFT RC-1 control system includes IR, RF, and wall box controller remotes. Wall box and RF remote are 12v trigger ready. Width of the screen’s white housing is 125″ and screen’s overall fully-extended height is 80.6″ including housing and 12″ top and 2.2″ bottom black masking. Weighs 51 pounds.
