Specifications and Features
The HL6820GTV employs a 0.47-inch DMD chip to deliver 4K UHD (3,840 x 2,160) resolution.
Instead of a conventional lamp, it uses a laser light source that achieves 4,000 ANSI lumens in standard mode, making it suitable for rooms with ambient daylight.
An Eco mode reduces brightness to 3,200 lumens, lowers fan noise to 29 dBA, and extends the laser's lifespan from 20,000 to 30,000 hours.
