Epson - Home Cinema 980 Projector, 4,000 Lumens of Color and Brightness, 3LCD, Full HD 1080p - White

Hello Alex. The Home Cinema 980 projector can be used outdoors in shaded, dry areas, away from direct sunlight, either on the projector or the screen. It's also a good idea to keep the projector in an area protected from dust, debris, and weather exposure while ensuring adequate ventilation for proper operation. While it offers 4,000 lumens of brightness, the image may still appear washed out in bright conditions, so it performs best at night or in low-light environments. Regards, Kevin - The Epson Team.
