Draper Acumen Recharge E – 90", CinemaScope – 153115SA

Product Overview

The Draper Acumen Recharge E is a surface-mounted, free-hanging rechargeable motorized projection screen that runs on an internal battery, removing the need for line-voltage wiring at the screen. This 90" diagonal CinemaScope (2.39:1) model installs like a manual screen and is controlled entirely wirelessly, making it a practical fit for smaller conference rooms, huddle rooms, and retrofits where running power is impractical. As a battery-powered electric projection screen, it houses the viewing surface in a contoured extruded-aluminum case that retracts the image fully out of sight. All units ship through Creation Networks at authorized-dealer pricing with Draper's 7-year warranty.

Product Description

The Draper Acumen Recharge E is a non-tensioned, free-hanging electric screen powered by a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, so no electrician or in-wall power run is required at the screen location. This 90" CinemaScope 2.39:1 configuration suits wide-format content in compact meeting rooms and multi-purpose spaces. Installation mirrors a manual screen: attach the included floating mounting brackets or ceiling suspension brackets and hang the case, with no wiring to terminate. The battery charges from a standard 110V outlet using the included 13' (4 m) recharge cable and 2 Amp USB plug-in, and Draper rates the lithium-ion battery for up to 500 raise-and-lower cycles between charges. All control is wireless: an RF remote is included, and an optional hub adds smartphone-app control along with Google Home and Alexa voice control. An optional Power over Ethernet configuration is available to keep the unit powered continuously while still controlling it by RF. A removable front fascia simplifies service access, and a black masking drop above the image area is standard. The Acumen Recharge E accepts Draper's OptiView and ClearSound families of viewing surfaces, including acoustically transparent options for behind-screen loudspeakers. Pair it with a compatible unit from our commercial projectors collection and a bracket from our projector mounts and lifts collection to complete the system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Acumen Recharge E really require no wiring?

Correct. It runs on a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery, so there is no line-voltage wiring to terminate at the screen. It installs like a manual screen and recharges periodically from a standard 110V outlet using the included cable.

How long does the battery last between charges?

Draper rates the lithium-ion battery for up to 500 raise-and-lower cycles per charge. Actual time between charges depends on how often the screen is used. An optional Power over Ethernet configuration is available if you prefer to keep the unit continuously powered.

How is the screen controlled and integrated into an AV system?

An RF remote is included. Adding the optional hub enables control from a smartphone app as well as Google Home and Alexa. Contact Creation Networks to confirm the best control approach for your AV system.
