There’s a lot to get through, so we’re just going to dive into K-12 first.
TOP K-12 PROJECTION SCREENS
Da-Lite’s favorite electric screen solution for K-12 is the Contour® Electrol®. Down when you need it, tucked away when you don’t. The Contour Electrol is ridiculously easy to mount to the ceiling or wall and comes in a variety of finishes. Want an electric motorized screen option without having to re-route power or altering a historical building? We have a battery motor option for the Tensioned Designer Contour Electrol. The standard Agility™ Battery Motor is available for sizes up to 110” diagonal in 16:9 format or 113” in 16:10 format. The battery lasts over 200 cycles and charges via micro USB port and comes with a wireless remote. With no wiring to deal with, this solution can be rolled out across sites quickly. Our third solution for the K-12 crowd is our IDEA™ Screen, a surface that can be used as a touch screen for interactive projectors as well as a whiteboard with dry-erase markers. Hotspot free under projection and rigid enough to ensure a superior interactive experience, IDEA screens are also magnetic. For a cost-effective solution, look to the Model C with CSR, a manual wall- or ceiling-mounted screen for larger rooms with a controlled screen return that ensures a quiet, controlled return to the case.
