What projector do you use with it?

I've been using some Epson projector bought used for $100, kind of a like a standard office projector from a decade ago. I'd ideally like something white and smaller that be mounted on the ceiling or wall without looking like a big black wart.

Is there a rule of thumb to guess how many lumens you want/need? I'm seeing everything from 220 to 5000.
Here's the amount of thought I put into buying my projector. My son got a little projector and a small screen for Christmas. I thought to myself "wow I wonder what this bigger one will do" and bought the Yaber V7 and the huge cloth screen. I think all in I had $350 in my setup. I wanted a retractable screen but couldn't find any in the size I wanted... which was giant.
