ViewSonic PS501W 3400-Lumen WXGA Short Throw Projector
Short-throw WXGA projector delivering 3400 lumens for bright, large images in small spaces.
The ViewSonic PS501W is a short throw projector built for business and education settings where space is tight. You can place it just 4 feet from a wall and get a 100-inch image. That’s the main trick here, and it solves a real problem in small conference rooms or crowded classrooms.
At 3,400 lumens with native WXGA 1280×800 resolution, the image stays visible even with the lights on. Super Color technology pushes the color gamut wider than typical budget projectors, so presentations and video look natural rather than washed out. The 0.49 throw ratio means you won’t have people walking through the beam or squinting past a ceiling-mounted unit. Setup is straightforward with HDMI, VGA, and RS232 control for integration into existing AV systems.
The Dynamic Eco feature cuts power consumption when the image is static, which saves energy over a full day of use. Build quality is typical ViewSonic: solid plastic, clean white chassis, nothing fancy. You’ll need one A battery for the remote. The short throw lens is the real draw here. If your room is small, this projector makes a big picture possible without the usual headaches.
