@ 15 lumen it need a pitch black room (0 lux) to see anything with some contrast.
NO WAY this will work inside with even the tiniest amount of light.
A 5 Watt eco LED-lamp makes ~50 lumens and that's a dim "night-watch" kind of bulb.
Now imagine a third of that... it could barely illuminate inside a box !!!!
I would LOVE to see them demonstrate the image in the AD is from their product...
It is typical for LED Pico-Projectors to have low power and high prices.
You could pick a DLP 100 lumen Pico from BENQ Joybee GP1 or for about the same $$$ the ACER C110 but with only 50 lumen.

Or an older model LAPTOP that will come with a bright 15" screen, movie player, games, and at least a 2-3h battery.... that would easy be below 250$
Sometimes a modest Laptop can be cheaper that having your car set up with central mdeia player and bac-seat LCDs...

Really? Car's have flat white wall's in them suitable for a projector display?! Who writes this?!
