Ellie Electric Screens...

[sdb123]

Hi,

I will be purchasing my first projector screen soon. I will probably go for a 7' wide electric screen (possibly tab tensioned) and wondered if the Ellie screens were worthy for consideration?

Thoughts welcomed!

Thanks,

Steve

I've bought two screens from Ellie, a 2.4mtr wide "Duet" screen, and a 3.5mtr wide tab tensioned screen.

Happy with both screens

Both nice and flat.

Hi Stan,

Thanks for the reply.

In your opinion, is the Tab Tensioned Ellie a worthwhile investment over the standard electric screen?

Let me know how you get on, I am considering several options including Tab tensioned

sdb123 - tensioned vs standard electric - that's a tough one.

With a standard screen, you might notice a slight curling of the vertical edges of the screen - nothing much, it certainly doesn't affect viewing pleasure !

With the tab-tensioned screen, the screen edges are dead flat and straight - at least on my example anyway.

It depends on whether you've other kit to buy aswell ( projector etc.. ), might be better going with the standard screen and putting the money saved towards other items.

I've bought everything I need for now....I assume that any curling may occur on the edges rather than the viewing area itself?

The overall quality is good though?

Any curling should be on the black edges mainly.

The viewing area itself should be nice and flat !

I certainly don't have any complaints as far as quality goes
