    Looking for an “Arizona-Heat” proof outdoor Projector

    Like the title says, I’m looking for an outdoor projector that can survive the Arizona summers and not warp or get destroyed. I’m hoping for a throw under 7 feet to a 16x9 or 16x10 retractable screen. Trying to output at minimum 125” horizontally. It will be under a patio awning, so rain shouldn’t be an issue. Anyone know of one that will handle the heat?

    I'm in Nor-Cal and I have metal shed with project close to the roof is it gets super hot - the first thing that will happen is the projector will shut down when it goes over a certain temp. Not much you can do, but I used a portable AC unit that was for server cabinets so it has two flex hoses, one for the outlet of the hot air, and one for the cool air to the equipment - I used this to cool the projector it works great and when I wasn't golfing I didn't do anything.

      I doubt I will be practicing in the middle of summer unless the sun goes down. I’m more concerned about the projector holding up even with no use. It will hit 120° at least a few times per year.

        No clue the answer here, but where in AZ are you?
