  Summary: This projector screen works fantastic. The Motor is very quiet, and the fact is comes with 2 remotes is great! I didn't like the way the cables were designed though. 1 Cable goes into the top of the screen housing for power to the motor, and then goes into a infrared box for the remotes. Another cable comes out of the infrared box and goes to an outlet. I was looking to hide the cables in the wall with low voltage boxes, but this really can't be done, so I ended up hiding the cables with plastic conduit, (Similar to what you would find in an office) and this solved the issue.

  Summary: I selected the Elite Screens VMAX100UWH to use with my Optoma HD72 due to its size, wide viewing angle, motorized ceiling mount and ease of care. Note this model is not the Silvermax high contrast.
  
  This unit does provide widest angle viewing and is washable. The unit comes with 2 metal hangers and 2 remote controls. One remote is IR the other is RF. However, both use a weird size 27A 12V battery. You can get the batteries at radio shack or better yet, program a learning universal remote like the Harmony or Pronto to operate the VMAX.
  
  I am not overly impressed with this made in China products’ quality. The unit came properly packaged but the screen had black finger prints on it and the IR remote was missing a spring on one of the battery holder contacts. The wall mounting brackets are sufficient but ugly. If you use these you will undoubtedly find some way to hide the shiny installation hardware. The included plastic expansion inserts are not to be used in sheetrock so you have to use your own hardware. However, at least for now the unit does function as advertised.
  
  The manual is a very poor translation attempt and while meant for several models, suffers for it. Luckily, the unit is easy to install and use.
  
  The unit has a cable from the left end of the screen down to a control box and then a cable from the control box to 110V wall outlet. The control box can be wall mounted.
  
  Images from the Optoma HD72 look good on the screen. Keep in mind this is a normal white matte screen not glass beaded so there is no contrast gain but it is viewable from any angle and easy to clean.
