*Remotes are nice to have, but not necessary since the projector will be within reach.

Notes:
Epson 470 and above have HDMI ports, older models use VGA or USB-B and you will need to add drivers and adapters to your computer to use.
Epson 450-465 have a bump on the bottom which requires a DIY solution to make work. There are plans linked in the written article on an adjustable shelf that some have used.
Epson 410-430 needs a little more space to get a large image (about 2 feet).
“W” in Epson models means widescreen. And “I” means interactive. Neither is a must-have for sewing.
