Epson EB-695Wi | WXGA 1280 x 800 | 3500 Lumens | 3LCD Ultra Short Throw | Pen and Finger Interactive
A wall-mounted teaching screen that turns any whiteboard into a touch surface for lessons, workshops and team planning.
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
Epson EB-695Wi is available at Mascom International for KSh 227,000, brand new and sealed, with WXGA 1280 x 800 resolution, 3500 lumens and an ultra short throw lens that sits just centimetres from the wall. It reads both pen and finger touch, so teachers and trainers write, draw and click directly on the projected image. Two interactive pens, a touch unit and a 16W speaker come in the box. The lamp is rated for 10,000 hours in Eco mode. Visit our showroom in the Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, to try the Epson EB-695Wi with your own lesson files.
Built for primary and secondary schools, university tutorial rooms, corporate training centres and NGO workshops across Kenya, the Epson EB-695Wi replaces a chalkboard, a projector and a separate touch panel with one unit. Standard projectors throw shadows whenever a teacher walks to the board, and pupils lose the thread of the lesson. Mounted above the board, the Epson EB-695Wi projects an 80-inch image from about 47cm away, so the presenter barely casts a shadow. Lecturers at JKUAT and USIU, and facilitators running county health trainings, can annotate slides, save notes to a USB stick and share them after class.
Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya that sell interactive projectors without showing buyers how the pens calibrate, Mascom International sets up the touch unit with you during a demonstration. Customers across Nairobi tell us the finger-touch mode lets younger pupils take part without waiting for a pen. At Mascom International, we're seeing schools choose the Epson EB-695Wi over large interactive panels because it fills a 100-inch wall at a lower cost. The projector comes with a 24-month warranty and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. Message us on WhatsApp to arrange a classroom demonstration.
Common Questions About the Epson EB-695Wi
How much does the Epson EB-695Wi interactive projector cost in Kenya?
The Epson EB-695Wi costs KSh 227,000 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price includes two interactive pens, the finger-touch unit and bracket, a wall-mount setting plate, a pen tray, a 5m USB cable, a 4.5m power cable and a 24-month warranty. You pay on arrival after delivery. The Epson EB-L260F laser projector costs KSh 2,000 less but has no touch or pen interaction, so the two serve different rooms.
Should a school choose the Epson EB-695Wi or the Epson EB-L260F?
A school should choose the Epson EB-695Wi when teachers need to write and touch the board, and the Epson EB-L260F when the room needs a brighter standard image. The Epson EB-695Wi offers pen and finger interaction, an ultra short throw lens and WXGA 1280 x 800 resolution at 3500 lumens. The Epson EB-L260F gives 4600 lumens at Full HD with a laser that needs no lamp changes, but presenters stand in its beam. Classrooms favour interaction; lecture theatres and boardrooms favour the laser model.
How does the Epson EB-695Wi handle dust and power cuts in Kenyan classrooms?
The Epson EB-695Wi handles chalk dust and road dust best when its air filter is cleaned every few months and the room is swept before lessons. Wall mounting above the board keeps it off desks where dust gathers. For KPLC power cuts, run it through a UPS rated above its 354W Normal-mode draw, so a lesson ends cleanly rather than abruptly. Schools in areas with frequent outages should also fit a voltage stabiliser to protect the lamp and the touch unit during power surges.
Who should buy the Epson EB-695Wi and who should skip it?
The Epson EB-695Wi suits schools, colleges, training centres and project teams that want an interactive whiteboard on a large wall. Teachers who move between notes and the board all day benefit most. Skip it if you need Full HD detail for films or a portable unit, since it is a wall-mounted ultra short throw model at about 5.8kg. Boardrooms that only present slides should consider the Epson EB-L260F, and large halls needing high brightness should consider the Epson EB-2250U.
How close to the wall does the Epson EB-695Wi need to sit?
The Epson EB-695Wi produces an 80-inch picture from about 47cm away and supports images from 60 to 100 inches. Its throw ratio of 0.28 to 0.37 means it needs only a short distance for each metre of picture width. The projection distance for its full image range runs from about 35.4cm to 60.1cm. Fitters mount it above the whiteboard on the included setting plate, so pupils standing at the board stay out of the light path and do not squint into the lens.
Can several students write on the Epson EB-695Wi board at the same time?
Yes, the Epson EB-695Wi supports two interactive pens at once and up to six fingers when connected to a computer. In standalone mode with no PC, it accepts two fingers plus pen input. That means two pupils can solve maths problems side by side while the teacher watches. Drawings and notes can be saved to a USB stick or sent to a network printer. Through Epson Easy Interactive Tools on a connected laptop, teachers can control Windows programs by touching the projected screen.
Does the Epson EB-695Wi connect wirelessly to laptops and tablets?
The Epson EB-695Wi includes built-in wireless LAN, so laptops and tablets can send their screens to the projector without a cable. Wired options include three HDMI inputs, one of them supporting MHL for compatible phones, plus two VGA inputs and an RJ45 network port. The 5m USB cable in the box carries touch signals from the board back to a classroom computer. Schools running Safaricom or Airtel Kenya home fibre or office broadband can keep the projector on the same network as staff laptops.
How long does the Epson EB-695Wi lamp last?
The Epson EB-695Wi lamp is rated for 5,000 hours in Normal mode and 10,000 hours in Eco mode. A classroom using it five hours a day across a 190-day school year would run about 950 hours per year, so Eco mode stretches one lamp across roughly ten years of lessons. The lamp is a 250W UHE unit. Normal mode gives 3500 lumens; Eco mode lowers output to 2900 lumens and cuts fan noise to 30dB, which suits quiet exam rooms.
Technical Specifications
Projection Technology and Brightness
- 3LCD three-chip system — red, green and blue panels work together for accurate colour and no rainbow effect.
- 3500 lumens colour and white brightness in Normal mode — clear text and images in a classroom with the lights on.
- 2900 lumens in Eco mode — still bright enough for most lessons while extending lamp life and cutting noise.
- 250W UHE lamp — Epson's Ultra High Efficiency lamp gives steady output at a lower running cost.
- Infrared interactive system — the board senses pens and fingers, turning the projected image into a touch surface.
Resolution and Image Quality
- Native WXGA 1280 x 800 resolution — about one million pixels, sharp enough for slides, worksheets and diagrams.
- 16:10 aspect ratio — matches most laptop screens, so lessons fill the board without black bars.
- 14,000:1 contrast ratio — the spread between white and black, keeping maps and photos readable.
- Pen and finger touch — two pens together and up to six fingers with a PC, or two fingers standalone.
- Built-in digital whiteboard — write on a blank board without a computer and save pages to a USB stick.
Lens Throw and Screen Size
- Ultra short throw ratio of 0.28 to 0.37 — sits centimetres from the wall, so presenters barely cast shadows.
- Screen sizes from 60 to 100 inches — fills a standard whiteboard or a full classroom wall.
- About 47cm distance for an 80-inch image — mounts above the board and out of pupils' eyes.
- Projection distance of about 35.4cm to 60.1cm — sets the full range from the smallest to the largest image.
- Setting plate and touch unit bracket included — a fixed wall mount keeps calibration steady through the term.
Lamp Life and Running Cost
- 5,000 hours lamp life in Normal mode — about five school years at 950 classroom hours each.
- 10,000 hours lamp life in Eco mode — doubles the replacement interval for rooms that do not need full brightness.
- 354W power draw in Normal mode — size the classroom UPS or stabiliser comfortably above this figure.
- 309W power draw in Eco mode — roughly 13 percent less electricity across long school days.
- 0.37W energy-saving standby — almost no overnight draw when left plugged in.
Connectivity
- Three HDMI inputs, one with MHL — connect a laptop, a document camera and a compatible phone together.
- Built-in wireless LAN — laptops and tablets can send their screen to the board without cables.
- Two VGA computer inputs plus composite video — older school computers and DVD players still connect.
- USB Type A and Type B ports — memory-stick playback and saved notes, plus touch control from a connected PC.
- RJ45 LAN and RS-232C ports — IT staff can monitor and control projectors across the school network.
Build Audio and Noise
- 16W mono speaker — enough volume for a classroom of 40 pupils without extra speakers.
- Microphone input — a teacher's wired mic plays through the projector speaker in larger rooms.
- Three audio inputs and one audio output — route sound from several sources or out to a PA system.
- Fan noise of 35dB in Normal and 30dB in Eco — quiet enough not to distract pupils during tests.
- Weight of about 5.8kg and 367 x 400 x 149mm excluding feet — built for a fixed wall mount.
