Frequently Asked Questions
General Info
Can I use this indoors or outdoors?
Yes! ReelNights kits work great in living rooms, backyards, patios, or driveways — anywhere with a blank wall or room for the included 120" screen.
Is it hard to set up?
Not at all. The entire setup takes less than 10 minutes and is designed to be 100% DIY-friendly. No tools, apps, or tech skills required.
What’s included in the ReelNights kit?
Each rental includes:
An Anker Nebula Mars 3 projector (battery-powered, 4K support, built-in speakers)
A 120" screen with a lightweight aluminum stand
Extension cord
A quick-start setup guide
Do I need a power outlet?
Nope! The projector runs for up to 5 hours on its built-in battery. But if you prefer, you can plug it in — we include a cord and extension just in case.
What do I need to stream movies?
The projector has built-in Android TV — just connect to Wi-Fi and sign into your favorite apps like Netflix, Disney+, and YouTube.
Important note:
Some apps (like Netflix) may limit playback when casting or using mobile apps. For the best experience, we recommend:
Using the remote to stream directly on the projector, or
Connecting a laptop or streaming stick (like a Fire Stick or Roku) via HDMI
Can I hook up my own device?
Yes! The projector supports:
HDMI input (for laptops or streaming sticks)
USB drives (for downloaded movies)
Screen mirroring for Android (AirPlay not supported on some apps)
What if the weather’s bad?
No problem — the kit works just as well indoors. A cozy movie night inside can be just as memorable.
Booking, Delivery & Pickup
How long is the rental period?
Each booking is for 48 hours. We deliver between 12–3pm on your selected day, and pickup happens two days later by 9am.
Do I need to be home for delivery?
Nope. We’ll text you when your kit arrives. You don’t need to be present — just make sure we have access to drop it off.
How does pickup work?
Leave the kit outside your door or gate by 9am on the return day. We’ll handle the rest.
Movie Night Tips
Can I stream Netflix, Disney+, or other apps?
Yes! The projector runs Android TV and supports major streaming platforms. Just connect to Wi-Fi and log in.
Can I use it without Wi-Fi?
If you’ve downloaded content or use a connected device (like a laptop or USB stick), you don’t need Wi-Fi.
For Hosts
How do I earn from ReelNights?
You earn $100 every time one of your guests books a ReelNights kit. We handle delivery, pickup, support, and equipment.
What do I need to do as a host?
Just add a short note to your Airbnb listing — something like:
“Now offering a private movie night experience — ask us how!”
That’s it. We take care of the rest.
How do I get paid?
We send payouts monthly via PayPal, Venmo, or direct deposit — whichever works best for you.
Am I responsible if something breaks?
Nope. We manage the equipment, handle guest support, and cover any damage. You’re never on the hook.
Do I need a backyard to qualify?
Not at all. Indoor-friendly listings work just as well. As long as there's space for a screen or blank wall, your place is a great fit.
