00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:07.919
ben q reached out to us to showcase their tk800

00:00:05.279 --> 00:00:12.559
4k projector this thing is specially designed to be great for watching sports

00:00:10.480 --> 00:00:17.359
ball and since it's world cup season after all we thought why not build the

00:00:14.799 --> 00:00:25.000
dream big screen sports watching setup for nerds with the tk421 i'm sorry

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:25.000
excuse me the tk 800.

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:45.520
step one is something to actually watch the game on trust me inviting people to

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:49.800
come over and listen to the game doesn't work nobody will show up he's still

00:00:48.000 --> 00:00:54.220
there he's done it

00:00:55.440 --> 00:01:02.559
now lots of people use home projectors for their hundred inch plus home theater

00:01:00.160 --> 00:01:06.720
setups where they have complete ambient light control and they're watching

00:01:04.559 --> 00:01:10.799
usually movies in the dark and if that's your thing then benq's ht2550 is a great

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:16.720
choice but this this is a far better one when you've got

00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:20.159
more light in the room like when you're gaming with the kids or when you're

00:01:18.080 --> 00:01:25.439
running a more social event where people want to be able to eat and talk instead

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:30.640
of just being focused on the content that's because the tk800 is rated at 3

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:36.240
000 lumens of brightness it's got HDR support and it's got 92 coverage of the

00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:39.280
rec 709 color space in part thanks to its rgbw

00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:44.079
color wheel that extra slice of wheel lets white

00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:48.320
light shine through for extra brightness to overcome ambient light pollution

00:01:46.720 --> 00:01:53.360
it's not quite as easy as it sounds though if too much white comes through

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:57.920
the image can look overcooked and washed out if you let in too little then yeah

00:01:56.479 --> 00:02:02.880
the colors will look more natural and more vibrant but you won't get close to

00:02:00.159 --> 00:02:07.439
that advertised 3000 lumen brightness unless the screen is displaying a mostly

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:10.800
white image it's all about finding the right balance

00:02:09.119 --> 00:02:14.800
next up if you're an insufferably competitive type a like me then you'll

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:18.959
need some accessories to help you gloat now you could use team specific

00:02:16.720 --> 00:02:23.440
celebration tools but personally i've always found it's cheaper not to mention

00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:28.239
less likely to get demonetized to just throw as much obnoxious as possible at

00:02:26.959 --> 00:02:33.239
my friends it truly is a wonder that i have any

00:02:39.760 --> 00:02:46.560
moving on our projector would work on a plain white screen or failing that even

00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:52.000
a wall but this is Linus tech tips i mean come on

00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:56.319
so we went way over the top with a screen that costs almost as much as the

00:02:54.560 --> 00:03:02.000
projector itself this is a 100

00:02:58.959 --> 00:03:04.560
ambient light rejecting screen and it

00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:10.400
was sent to us by our new besties at silver ticket products now a normal

00:03:07.519 --> 00:03:15.360
white screen will scatter all of the incoming light which gives it diffusion

00:03:12.800 --> 00:03:20.400
uniformity or uniform brightness across the whole screen but that means that

00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:25.519
even ambient light gets scattered washing out the image an angular

00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:32.519
reflective screen like this diverts off-axis rays of light leaving

00:03:28.800 --> 00:03:32.519
the image chris

00:03:33.200 --> 00:03:40.239
which reminds me pretty much the most physical thing about watching sports is

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:45.519
eating as much as you possibly can and we have got our bases covered

00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:51.599
see what i did there with the bases first use domino's zero click app to

00:03:48.640 --> 00:03:56.000
expend as few calories as possible their app lets you order your usual with

00:03:54.319 --> 00:04:00.239
delivery to whatever address is attached to your profile then

00:03:58.239 --> 00:04:06.159
this is actually the techie part you can use if this then that to track your

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:08.879
order progress like sending you a text when your pizza has been put in the oven

00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:16.239
or changing your philips hue lights once

00:04:11.360 --> 00:04:16.239
it's out for delivery what goal

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:21.359
yay was supposed to be excited there no i

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:25.120
think that was great but all those reminders are probably

00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:30.639
just gonna make you hungrier so you will need some munchables to tide you over

00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:33.199
that is why i am jerry rigging this pet

00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:38.000

00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:08.759
oh

00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:32.320
seriously though for modern spectators one screen is often not enough and that

00:05:29.039 --> 00:05:34.560
is why my events are always byot bring

00:05:32.320 --> 00:05:37.919
your own tablet you can use it to chat with other fans online as the game

00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:41.680
unfolds hang out with a friend who's watching elsewhere or heck

00:05:39.520 --> 00:05:46.160
even watch a different sporting event all to get really

00:05:44.880 --> 00:05:49.840
rocket league it's an esport it's not a sport so a

00:05:48.400 --> 00:05:54.720
sport well let me how does this thing even work how

00:05:53.440 --> 00:05:58.800
