CERRITOS, Calif., Oct. 15, 2011 — Elite Screens, Inc. an innovative company that specializes in affordable high quality projection screens, today announced its latest electric projection screen, the Powermax Series.
“It is aesthetically, the best-looking electric roll-up screen that we have made,” said David Rodgers, marketing manager, Elite Screens, Inc. “The Powermax offers the retail customer a full projection screen solution with all the quality of a high end product at a price-point that is compatible with today’s retail projectors.”
The Powermax Series from Elite Screens is the sublime combination of elegance and a reliable product that is ideal for the retail consumer. It features a stylish aluminum casing with aesthetically sleek lines that complement any media room or training environment. Its standard power connection comes complete with an in-line up/stop/down toggle switch for easy operation.
Full IR/RF control package sold separately.
For a full control package, there is the PowermaxT. The “T” is for total control and it includes IR/RF controls, 3-way Ethernet wall switch, and 12-volt trigger with the screen. Installation is a snap, literally. Its sliding installation brackets mount quickly and snap the Powermax into place. Because the brackets slide horizontally, the screen will be perfectly centered every time.
The Powermax has a fast-acting 95 watt/220 volt tubular motor that is capable of 14 rpm with a lift capacity of 6 Newton Meters or 4.4 foot pounds. It uses Elite’s award-winning Maxwhite FG fiberglass-backed material. This 1.1 gain viewing surface provides superb color neutrality with wide diffusion uniformity. The material is black-backed to eliminate light penetration and has black matte borders for enhanced picture contrast and appearance. The screens are available in 90”-165” diagonal sizes in either a 4:3 (NTSC) or 16:9 (HDTV) aspect ratio.
Pricing, Availability, Warranty
Elite Screens’ Powermax has pricing as low as $ 499 (USD) MSRP and will be available through our retail sales channel. Each comes with a standard 2-year warranty as well as a 3-year warranty (US only) for Government, Educational, House of Worship and Military purchases.
