Can a projector really replace a TV in a bright room?

Question

Accepted Answer

With 3,000+ lumens and an ALR screen, a projector is watchable in a moderately lit room. It will not match a TV's brightness in direct sunlight, but it is more than adequate for normal living room lighting. For dedicated media rooms with light control, projectors are superior.
