BenQ LK936ST 5100-Lumen 4K Laser Golf Simulator Projector
The BenQ LK936ST is BenQ's flagship 4K golf simulator projector. At $4,899, it delivers 3840x2160 resolution, 5,100 ANSI lumens of laser brightness, and a 0.81-0.89:1 short-throw ratio -- the brightest 4K projector in BenQ's entire golf simulator lineup.
This is not your average sim projector. The LK936ST adds HDBaseT for 100-meter cable runs, DisplayPort 1.2a, industry-leading lens shift (V +/-60%, H +/-23%), and IP5X dust protection. Built for golfers who demand the absolute best image quality and installation flexibility money can buy.
Why Golfers Choose the LK936ST
5,100 Lumens -- Brightest 4K
More brightness than any other 4K projector in the BenQ golf lineup. Fills screens up to 200 inches with vivid, punchy color even in rooms with ambient light.
True 4K UHD
3840x2160 resolution with 1.07 billion colors and 92% Rec. 709 coverage. Course graphics, greens, and data overlays render in razor-sharp detail.
HDBaseT Connectivity
Run uncompressed 4K video over a single Cat6 cable up to 328 feet. Keep your sim PC in a closet, rack, or another room entirely -- no signal loss.
Industry-Leading Lens Shift
Vertical +/-60% and horizontal +/-23% motorized lens shift. Mount it almost anywhere and dial in a perfect image without moving the projector.
Golf Mode
Dedicated color calibration tuned for simulator environments. Optimizes greens, fairways, and sky tones automatically for a natural, immersive image.
IP5X Dust Protection
Sealed laser modules and enclosed light engine prevent dust infiltration. No filters to clean, no color decay over time. Install and forget.
Throw Ratio and Room Placement
The LK936ST's 0.81-0.89:1 short-throw ratio produces a massive image from a moderate distance. Combined with 1.1x optical zoom and the widest lens shift in the lineup (V +/-60%, H +/-23%), you have unmatched flexibility in positioning.
Is the LK936ST Right for Your Build?
The "No Compromises" Builder
You are building the best sim room money can buy. Trackman, full enclosure, dedicated room. The LK936ST's 5,100 lumens and 4K resolution match the quality of a $10,000+ launch monitor.
Commercial / Lesson Studio
Teaching pros and commercial facilities need a projector that runs 8+ hours daily without degradation. 5,100 lumens cuts through ambient light in open floor plans. HDBaseT simplifies wiring across long runs.
Tricky Installation
Your ceiling is not centered, your room is oddly shaped, or your PC is in another room. The LK936ST's massive lens shift range and HDBaseT connectivity solve problems other projectors cannot.
Large Screen (150-200")
Filling a 150-200 inch screen requires serious brightness. Most 4K projectors top out at 4,000 lumens -- the LK936ST's 5,100 lumens maintain vivid colors and contrast on screens that other models struggle with.
Multi-Purpose Entertainment
Your sim room doubles as a home theater. 4K resolution, Dolby Atmos passthrough, eARC, and S/PDIF output deliver a premium cinema experience when you are not hitting balls.
Future-Proof Investment
HDBaseT, DisplayPort 1.2a, HDMI 2.0b, 12V trigger for screen automation, LAN control -- the LK936ST's connectivity suite is ready for whatever you build next.
Deep blacks. Vivid colors. 1.07 billion displayable colors with 92% Rec. 709 coverage. Every blade of grass, every fairway contour, every data overlay rendered with the clarity that makes your simulator feel real.
HDBaseT: 4K Over a Single Cable, Up to 328 Feet
Most golf simulator projectors max out at HDMI -- which degrades beyond 25-50 feet. The LK936ST includes HDBaseT, a professional-grade standard that transmits uncompressed 4K video, audio, and control signals over a single Cat6 Ethernet cable up to 100 meters (328 feet).
Keep your PC in a closet, server rack, or another room entirely. Run a single Cat6 cable through the wall. No active HDMI cables, no signal repeaters, no compromises. This is how commercial AV installations are wired -- and now your sim room can be too.
The LK936ST also includes DisplayPort 1.2a, two HDMI 2.0b ports, LAN control, RS-232, and a 12V trigger for motorized screen automation.

Get the Most Out of Your LK936ST
Five tips to get a perfect image from day one.
Ceiling Mount It
The BenQ ceiling mount ($99) is purpose-built for this projector. Overhead mounting eliminates swing interference and keeps cables clean.
Leverage the Lens Shift
The LK936ST's V +/-60% and H +/-23% lens shift is the widest in the lineup. Mount it off-center or at a non-ideal height and still achieve a perfectly aligned image without moving the projector.
Use HDBaseT for Long Runs
If your PC is more than 25 feet from the projector, skip the expensive HDMI cable and use the HDBaseT port with a single Cat6 cable. Uncompressed 4K up to 328 feet.
Enable Golf Mode
In picture settings, activate Golf Mode. It calibrates color temperature and gamma specifically for simulator graphics -- greens look green, not washed out.
Pair with Quality Enclosure
A good enclosure setup makes a measurable difference in image quality. ALR screen material maximizes the LK936ST's 5,100 lumens.
Connect External Audio
The LK936ST supports eARC with Dolby Atmos passthrough and S/PDIF output. Connect a soundbar or surround system for an immersive golf and home theater experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
The LK936ST outputs 5,100 ANSI lumens via a laser light source -- the brightest 4K golf simulator projector in the BenQ lineup. It handles ambient light better than any other 4K projector we sell. Even rooms with overhead lighting or uncovered windows produce a vivid, punchy image. For dedicated sim rooms with controlled lighting, the image quality is exceptional.
The LK936ST has a 0.81-0.89:1 throw ratio with 1.1x optical zoom. For a 100-inch screen, the projector sits approximately 5.9 to 6.5 feet from the screen. For a 120-inch screen, approximately 7.1 to 7.8 feet. For a 150-inch screen, approximately 8.8 to 9.7 feet. For a 200-inch screen, approximately 11.8 to 12.9 feet. If you need the projector closer to the screen, consider the AK700ST (0.69-0.83:1) or the LK830ST (0.5:1 ultra short throw).
Yes. BenQ makes the BenQ ceiling mount ($99) specifically for their golf simulator projectors including the LK936ST. The mount allows you to install the projector above and behind the hitting area. The LK936ST's industry-leading lens shift (V +/-60%, H +/-23%) gives you exceptional flexibility in ceiling-mount positioning -- you do not need the mount to be perfectly centered or at an exact height.
HDBaseT transmits uncompressed 4K video, audio, and control signals over a single Cat6 Ethernet cable up to 328 feet (100 meters). Standard HDMI cables degrade beyond 25-50 feet. If your sim PC is in a different room, closet, or equipment rack, HDBaseT eliminates the need for expensive active HDMI cables or signal repeaters. It is the same technology used in professional AV installations.
The LK936ST uses a laser light source rated at 20,000 hours in normal mode. Unlike traditional lamp-based projectors, the laser never needs replacement. At 4 hours of daily use, that is over 13 years of operation with no maintenance.
Both are 4K laser golf simulator projectors from BenQ. The LK936ST ($4,899) is the flagship model with 5,100 lumens, HDBaseT, DisplayPort 1.2a, wider lens shift (V +/-60% vs V +/-5%), and pro-grade connectivity. The AK700ST ($2,899) delivers 4,000 lumens with a shorter throw ratio (0.69-0.83:1 vs 0.81-0.89:1), making it better for very tight rooms. Choose the LK936ST for maximum brightness, installation flexibility, and commercial-grade setups. Choose the AK700ST for compact spaces and a lower price point.
4K resolution (3840x2160) provides four times the pixel density of 1080p. On large screens (100 inches and up), the difference is clearly visible in course graphics, green reading, and club data overlays. If you are investing $5,000 or more in a launch monitor and software, a 4K projector ensures the image quality matches the rest of your setup. The LK936ST's 5,100 lumens also mean you are not sacrificing brightness for resolution.
For most home simulators, a 100-150 inch impact screen delivers the best combination of immersion and image quality. The LK936ST's 5,100 lumens make it one of the few 4K projectors that can comfortably fill screens up to 200 inches without visible brightness loss.
Yes. BenQ provides a 3-year limited warranty covering parts, labor, and the laser light source. Top Shelf Golf is an authorized BenQ dealer, so your warranty is fully backed. See our return policy for additional details.

Yes, it has a built-in 10W speaker. It also supports eARC with Dolby Atmos passthrough and includes S/PDIF output for connecting external surround sound systems.
