There ’s nothing better than watching a movie out of doors under the night sky . perhaps it ’s the drive - in vibe , or maybe it ’s just fun to be doing something that ’s an innately indoor action while camping or in the backyard . To pull it off , though , it requires anoutdoor projectorthat ’s rugged , portable , and sluttish to sic up . Few do it better than Anker ’s Nebula mark , and right now you could grab one of my favorites , theAnker Nebula Mars 3 , for just $ 800 duringCyber Week .
It may be a bit moth-eaten for a backyard movie Nox , but believe me , picking up the Mars 3 projector ( or any of the others Nebula has on sales event for Cyber Week ) for when the affectionate weather is back will be a good investment . The Nebula Mars 3 is a solidly - built 1080p projector that boasts an telling 1,000 ANSI lumens of brightness that ’s more than suited for a vivid image ( up to 200 in ) , whether you ’re projecting it on an literal concealment , sheet , or against the side of your tent , in a taking into custody .
The Mars 3’sIPX3 water supply - resistance ratingmeans that you do n’t have to panic if you get rain down out . And when I say it ’s rugged , I mean that I ’ve knocked mine off a cooler to no gist ( it formally can hold a drop curtain from up to half a meter ) .
The Mars 3 is also built with outside function in psyche . First , it ’s got a openhanded , grippy handle on the top , a sturdy slide - down lens screening , and a summerset - out outdoor stage on the bottom for getting the forcing out slant right ( it also has excellent auto - keystone and screen fitting ) . The Mars 3 doubles as a charge bank for devices , too , and has a in good order bright guide camping light on the back .
It ’s always a merriment surprisal propping the Mars 3 up on the picnic mesa on camping trips so the kids can watch a pic or a duet of episode of something . If you ’re somewhere with decent cell service , you may hotspot the Mars 3 to your speech sound for cyclosis ( this uses data , though ) , or a good musical theme is to download motion-picture show to your telephone set and used anHDMI adapterto link your phone to the Mars 3 that way . The Mars 3 also has Android TV built in , but it does n’t have aboriginal Netflix support ( you have to side - lading it ) .
electric battery life on the Mars 3 is substantial , too , with up to five time of day on eco mode . I ’ve gotten two picture out of this , which is comme il faut . Additionally , the Mars 3 has a good - than - you’d - expect 40 - watt speaker unit built in , so no pauperization for lugging aBluetooth speakeralong too ( unless you want to ) . And that ’s another thing — you could use the Mars 3 as a Bluetooth speaker , with up to 15 hours of playback .
The Nebula Mars 3 is not only one of the good out-of-door projectors you could purchase but it ’s also anexcellent projector , full point , no matter where you put it .
