I need a video projector for Video Mapping on buildings up to 8000 lumens and under the price of 3000$.
can anyone suggest me some brands and models?
Answer
This is a joke right? You will need at least $6000.00 for an 8000 lumen projector, plus another $1500.00-$3000.00 for a long throw lens. BTW, the $ goes in front of the numerals, not behind.

Is this projector designed for home theater use, or office use?

Please, all I want to know is if it is or not. I don't want your opinion on weather or not I should buy it. All I want to know is if it is made for home theater use. http://www.aboutprojectors.com/Toshiba-TDP-ET10U-projector.html
Also, what about this one? http://www.projectorcentral.com/play_big_IN72.htm
the picture wont look that bad will it? My TV is in 480i, and it looks very good to me.
Answer
Business projectors generally imply low contrast ratio, 4:3 (vs 16:9) aspect ratio, high brightness, lower quality video processing and (these days particularly, lower resolution) relative to home theater projectors ... but there are many crossover models and many people are quite happy with "business projectors" in their home.
Both projectors you identify are 16:9 ... the best indicator of intended use ... therefore most likely designed as HT projectors. That said, the line can be pretty blurred.
For example, the 1500:1 contrast ratio of the TDP-ET10U is more typical of business projectors and projector central (Link 1) lists it with a link to comparable conference room projectors ... suggesting it's best use is in a boardroom.
The IN72 is arguably the superior projector, but still has a relatively low CR (2000:1).
Note that by modern standards both of these projectors are pretty low resolution, and while your TV looks fine at 480i, it is a much smaller screen than is typically used for a projector, so the low projector resolution will be a limitation ... so I suggestion keeping the screen under 90" (and 72" might be better).
That said, in a light controlled rooms on a light grey screen (under about 90") either projector should look fine for home video or HDTV use (the later via an HD cable box or HD satellite receiver). The review of the InFocus at Projectorcentral is a useful guide. They won't be comparable to a modern 1080p HT projector ... but then they cost a LOT less too.
