Epson Introduces 12 New PowerLite L-Series Portable Projectors With up to 8,000 Lumens

BARCELONA (ISE 2025, Epson Stand 3J100) – Feb. 4, 2025 – The demand for large, bright and unique displays is rising in corporate, educational and entertainment settings. In well-lit work and school spaces, content visibility and engagement are key, while in creative, immersive environments, projection needs include higher resolution and flexible placement for unique installs and close-up viewing. In response to these evolving industry demands, Epson, the number one selling projector brand worldwide,¹ today announced 12 new 3-chip 3LCD PowerLite^® L-Series laser projectors. The new PowerLite L-Series will be on display at ISE in Barcelona from Feb. 4-7 at Epson’s stand, 3J100.

The new lineup delivers higher brightness and pro level features in a portable design, with an expanded range of throw ratios that solve placement challenges. With standard throw projectors and newly added optical zoom on two short throw options, the PowerLite L-Series now covers an expansive range of throw ratios between .5 to 2.2. This allows greater installation flexibility across applications, from floor and rear projection to meeting rooms and lecture halls. Previously only available in Epson’s interchangeable lens lineup, the new projectors include robust installation tools such as NFC,² advanced geometric correction and the optional PixAlign^® camera for simplifying complex multi-projector installations such as screen matching, blending or stacking.

“It’s an exciting time in the industry as more end users embrace projection technology to light up and transform spaces into one-of-a-kind experiences,” said Chris Teguh, product manager at Epson America, Inc. “With these latest additions to Epson’s fixed-lens lineup of laser projectors, we are not only delivering enhanced brightness but extending throw ratio options and adding powerful features – once reserved for Epson’s higher-end projectors – now within reach for more users. Combining 3-chip and 4K Enhancement Technology³ that doubles HD resolution on screen, plus now up to 8,000 lumens⁴ of brightness and short throw zoom models, the new PowerLite L-Series is a very enticing lineup that offers impressive image quality and specs within its class.”

Powered by Epson’s 3-chip 3LCD technology, the new lineup includes an incredibly bright 8,000-lumen⁴ model along with options featuring Full HD WUXGA resolution and 4K Enhancement Technology³ for sharp, detailed images – even for up close viewing. Built for a variety of environments – classrooms and lecture halls, conference rooms, hybrid workspaces and more – these powerful projectors produce exceptionally vibrant, high-resolution images up to 500 inches in 16:10. Plus, they are capable of projecting in a variety of other aspect ratios, including ultra-wide 16:6 and 21:9 for enhanced content display and visibility.

Designed with convenience in mind, the PowerLite L-Series features sleek, lightweight chassis and up to 30,000-hour virtually maintenance-free laser light source and air filter⁵ in Extended Mode. These versatile projectors offer powerful features, such as optical zoom, wide lens shift, geometric correction tools, and more for simple and seamless installation. With built-in wireless communication, users can monitor and control projector fleets remotely from a web browser using the Epson Projector Management Connected app, as well as enable advanced screen casting tools like Epson iProjection™⁶ and Miracast^®.⁶

Including various short throw models, different resolution options and ranging from up to 6,000- to 8,000-lumens of equal Color Brightness (IDMS Rated) and White Brightness (ISO Rated),⁴ the new PowerLite L-Series is designed to meet virtually any application.
