Save Money with Projector Rental

How you can save money with projector rentals

A lot of business owners, or even individuals, have the need for a projector every once in a while. Projectors are great for meeting presentations, live shows or even special movie nights at home – the problems is, projectors are not cheap to buy and paying so much for something that only gets used once in a blue moon, could be a waste of money. And that is exactly where our projector rental services come in handy. For a small fee, you can use our projector rental services when you need one, instead of breaking the bank to buy one.

Meeting Projectors

Our projector rental range includes standard ‘meeting projectors’ – these are not very powerful but they get the job done for presentations in a boardroom.
If you have a presentation or pitch to do at work, these projectors are perfect for your needs.

High Definition Projectors

HD projectors pack more of a punch than meeting projectors and offer better quality video projection. These projectors can project in full HD quality which makes them perfect for the best movie nights or for watching sport.

Commercial-Grade Projectors

These are the big daddies of the bunch. Commercial-grade projectors are perfect if you’re looking for a video backdrop or playback at a live concert or play.
Commercial grade projectors not only work indoors, but they can also be used outdoors, which makes them a very versatile option for projector rental.

Projector Screens

If you don’t have a large enough white space on the walls of your boardroom or living room, you’ll need a projector screen to project your images on.
These screens are very easy to assemble can will work in almost any environment in any room or office.

Audio-visual presentations can be some of the trickiest – and riskiest – activities you can undertake. Everything depends on things running smoothly – nothing is as embarrassing as a presentation that cannot be clearly viewed or suffers a technical hitch midway. To ensure that you maximise your chances of things proceeding problem-free, here are the points to consider when making a projector hire decision.

CRITERIA TO CONSIDER WHEN CONSIDERING PROJECTOR HIRE

The most important criteria is the brightness and clarity of the image you’ll be projecting. In addition you will want to consider image resolution, Image size and throw distance, connectivity and portability of the audio visual system.

Insofar as the brightness and clarity is concerned, this is determined by several factors – the size of the room you’re using, the size of the audience and the distance of the audience from the projected imagery. Technically you will need to consider whether you require a low-lumen or high-lumen projector. Lumens are the light output of a projector and the brighter your ambient presentation environment, the higher the lumens required.

The size of the room and audience will also determine the size of the image required and, again, a higher lumen count will be required for large-audience presentations.

Also, if your presentation is highly technical, with charts, graphs and numerical content, you may need a higher-lumen projector.

Next, confirm that you will have all the necessary cables and accessories and that the cabling to the projector is compatible with your audio visual output (e.g. laptop computer). Mostly, you will require either a VGA connector, but some video sources feature digital DVI or HDMI connectors. In addition, if the sound on the video output is not adequate (laptop speakers) and you need to hire speakers, ensure cabling is long enough and everything can be connected.

In addition, you will require remote controls, a cordless microphone possibly and a laser pointer. Also ask whether your projector hire comes with projector and speaker stands. The projector distance and angle of projection is important in determining the size and clarity of the projected image and whether you will be blocking the view for some members of the audience in achieving the desired size and clarity is an important consideration whilst using speakers on stands at about shoulder-height ensure that presentation sound covers more area and is also more visually appealing.

Considering the professionalism of your projector hire company is important and it would be good to have them in relatively close proximity to the presentation so that last-minute hitches or requirements can be addressed quickly. It is also important to know what kind of technical support you have access to and whether the hire company will transport the delicate equipment you will require.

An enterprise like AV Aids and Visuals is assured to provide all the best options for your projector hire requirements as well as making you fully aware of how to set up and operate the equipment and making it easy for you to set up and take down. You will be able to present with easy full confidence.

Thanks to a favourable rand currency and to South Africa’s commitment to becoming an international hotspot for companies and tradeshows, the event industry’s standards have been raised greatly in recent years. In order to pull off a successful conference, tradeshow, exhibit or other events, you need to go all out these days. It’s no longer sufficient just to hold an event in a community hall.

In order to stand out from the crowd and host an industry leading event, companies need to look at partnering with audio visual companies that can help them access the very latest AV equipment without breaking the bank. By partnering with a leader in audio visual solutions, you know that your event will go down without a hitch.

You can partner with the best speaker and MC for your event, have great entertainment and a fantastic line up sure to captivate your audience’s attention, but without the right sound and visuals, your event runs the real risk of falling flat. In fact, a poorly executed event can end up causing more damage to your brand than doing good. Don’t let this be the case when success is within reach.

You trust the judgement of your sales rep to help guide you on which system is best suited to meet your needs. However, what happens a few months down the line when you need to take care of its upkeep and maintenance?

What you should Know About Audio Visual Equipment.

It always pays to learn more about the maintenance of your AV equipment, as it can help you get more out of it and significantly prolong its lifespan. Here are 5 things you probably didn’t know about your audio visual equipment, but should.

1. Dust is Dangerous

Dust isn’t just another sign that you need to clean a bit more often, it is also dangerous to your AV equipment. Dust has the ability to infiltrate rack components that lead to overheating. If you want to shorten the lifespan of your AV system, this is one of the best ways of doing so.

2. Your Projector Can Become Clogged

Projectors have filters to ensure dust doesn’t affect its functioning. Keep in mind that after a while, filters can become clogged and lead to overheating problems for the projector. To avoid this, clean your projector’s filter after every 100 to 250 hours of use.

3. How To Make Your Room Work for Your Audio Visual Equipment

Get more out of your audio visual equipment by selecting colours for the room that work well on video, and try and eliminate as much natural lighting as possible to focus on having uniform lighting in the room.

4. HDMI Stands For…

HDMI, or High Definition Multimedia Interface) is the standard used for connecting high-definition video devices, and most televisions are equipped with at least one HDMI port.

5. Decibels Explained

Decibels measure your speakers’ loudness. It’s an important number when it comes to choosing speakers, especially when buying for a large venue. For every 10 decibel increase, the noise is twice as loud. Don’t be fooled by small increases in decibel levels, as it makes a big impact!
