The Projector<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the Leisure 470 R<\/a>, you get a compact, easy-to-use, affordable projector and the advantage of 275 live TV channels via Roku Express. The projector is very capable, despite its small size. On the side, you\u2019ve got multiple inputs so that you can hook it up to multiple devices at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There are two HDMI ports, so in addition to the Roku Express, which comes with it, you can still also hook up a gaming system, a laptop, or a second movie source. Two other options exist for playing videos or photos on the projector via either a USB-A port or a micro-SD card. There are also AV in and audio out 1\/8\u201d jacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The control panel is located atop the projector with all the standard buttons for Play\/Pause, left, right, up, down, input selection, menu, OK, and power. The Leisure 470 also comes with a remote (including all the same controls), so you don\u2019t need to sit next to the projector to operate it.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Atop the projector are two dials for focus and keystone adjustment (+ or \u2013 15\u00b0). Under the unit, a threaded kickstand spins out to raise the front of the projector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The projector can be used for front or rear projection as well as inverted and suspended from the ceiling. It has a 1\/4\u201dx20 mount in the bottom, so I can be easily attached to a camera-style tripod. It has a built-in 3W speaker and only weighs 2-1\/4 pounds. With the audio out port, you can easily connect external speakers if you have a large crowd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ideal mounting and projection distance is 9\u20198\u201d from the screen, which will create a 90\u201d diagonal image. But, you can use it as close as 4\u20193\u201d for a 39\u201d image and as far away as 26\u20196\u201d fpr a 250\u201d image.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The native resolution of the projector is 1280×720 pixels \u2013 which is what\u2019s known as full HD or DVD quality. It will, however, display other resolution video from 576i, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Roku Express<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The Roku Express player is included in the box with the Leisure 470R projector. The hookup couldn\u2019t be simpler. Merely connect an included HDMI cable from the Roku to the projector and either power the Roku from an outlet or from the projector\u2019s USB port. Add the enclosed AAA batteries to the remote, and you can enjoy entertainment without the monthly bill. As long as you have a good Wi-Fi source to the Internet, you are good to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The remote control is compact and includes one-press selectors for Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, and Sling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The steaming unit comes with an adhesive mounting strip if you want to permanently attach it to your TV or entertainment center, but I\u2019d prefer to leave it loose, so when I travel, I can take it along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you install the free Hulu app on your phone, you can search with your voice and have a second remote. It works with Siri, Alexa and Hey Google.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
