Projectors for watching games/movies on patio 120”

My advice is a projector outside is a terrible idea

He's advising against it because projectors that cheap suck

I’m not advising getting one unless you only want to watch it when it’s dark outside. Spend the extra money for the one with the most lumens. It will still be hard to watch until the sun goes down.

Is it really worth the extra for the 6000 or 6800?

More than likely their lumen rating isnt on par with other manufactures, but you will need every bit of light on an outside screen. Id suggest also buying a more reputable project model and compare. you can always return to amazon

No I’m buying based on the 191 reviews nearing 5 star average including pictures and videos of the projector being used in both darker and lighted environments, coupled with the low price point of $240.00 dollars or so.

Just FYI use Fakespot.com to see if the reviews are legit. It’s some kind of algorithm they use to determine if the reviews are genuine or computer generated.

Any time. There is a whole lot of frickery that goes on with Amazon Reviews.

No I’m not interested in spending a fortune on some high dollar projector

I’m willing to potentially throw away a couple hundred on a projector that will be serviceable to use maybe 5-10 times a year for LSU/saints games preferably at night.
I asked for advice of the lumens when looking at these projectors on amazon.
How hard is this to understand?

Is 6500 a good enough amount to be able to see it in the shade under patio in afternoon, or will it only work at night?

I work with projectors for simulation for flight operations, artillery operation, airborne targeting systems, etc.

What you are looking at are fake reviews on a piece of shite. Your insistence on buying into online "reviews" on a brand that isn't even recognized by the largest independent projector review site, Projector Central, tells me that you're acting kind of idiotic by refusing to conduct legitimate homework into the purchase. All you see is cheap $. Since you don't mind pissing away money, you are certainly giving credence to the saying, "a fool and his money are soon parted".

I sincerely hope you get to enjoy your hunk of junk, but over 28 years of experience in working with projectors tells me you will be severely disappointed and feel pretty foolish.
