EA-iFilm vs EA250INV: Which Indoor Transparent LED Film Fits a Glass Wall?

Quick answer

For an indoor glass wall, EA-iFilm fits when its documented 90% transparency, about 5 mm thickness, 6 kg/m² weight, 2,000:1 contrast and 5,000 cd/m² brightness suit the design. EA250INV fits when configuration-dependent transparency up to 90%, 2 mm modules about 1.3–1.5 kg, three module sizes and P3.91, P6.25 or P10.42 pitches, 1,500–4,500 cd/m² and up to 9,000:1 contrast fit. Confirm the quoted transparency and mounting scope.

Start With Transparency and Off-State Appearance

EA-iFilm is documented with 90% high transparency, and the same source says the screen is invisible when not playing, does not affect indoor lighting, and leaves no trace of installation when viewed from a distance. If the glass wall must look almost unchanged when the display is off, that documented position matters for the glass wall decision.

EA250INV lists up to 90% transparency, but the supplied detail is conditional: transparency ranges from 70% to 90% by pixel pitch and configuration. It is described as preserving daylight and sightlines through the glass, with the display structure remaining discreet when the screen is off. For a storefront or curtain wall, ask for the exact transparency figure for the pitch and module mix being quoted.

Compare Module Size, Thickness, Weight and Mounting

EA-iFilm is documented as approximately 5 mm thick and 6 kg/m², with high flexibility for various shapes, and it can be directly pasted to a glass curtain wall. Because that weight is given per square metre rather than per module, ask for the total weight of the proposed glass opening, the module or panel count, and how the film is positioned on the glass.

EA250INV uses 1000 × 250 mm, 1200 × 250 mm and 1500 × 250 mm modules, with available combinations varying by pixel pitch. Each module is 2 mm thick and weighs approximately 1.3–1.5 kg depending on module size. The model mounts directly to suitable indoor glass surfaces without a conventional steel support frame. For a glass wall that cannot accept heavy hardware, normalize the per-module weight against the EA-iFilm area weight before comparing handling or loading.

EA-iFilm vs EA250INV Comparison for Indoor Glass

Match Brightness, Contrast and Refresh to Indoor Light

EA-iFilm lists 5000 cd/m² brightness, a 2000:1 contrast ratio, 3840 Hz refresh and a 140° viewing angle vertical and horizontal. These are documented model lines. If the glass wall faces strong daylight, ask how the quoted configuration will be operated at the actual indoor light level rather than treating a headline brightness figure as an acceptance result. If the wall will appear on camera, request a camera test at the planned frame rate and shutter.

EA250INV configurations provide brightness from 1500 to 4500 cd/m², a contrast ratio up to 9000:1, 16-bit grayscale, a refresh rate of at least 3840 Hz and a 140° viewing angle. Those are documented ranges, so the exact quoted build matters: ask for the operating brightness, grayscale and refresh lines for the selected pitch, module size and configuration.

Plan Spare Modules and Service Access Before Ordering

Both models are documented for direct glass mounting. EA-iFilm can be directly pasted to a glass curtain wall, and EA250INV mounts directly to suitable indoor glass surfaces without a conventional steel support frame. Ask how power, data and mounting are handled after installation, and request spare modules tied to the exact model, pitch and module size. This is buyer-side planning, not a documented manufacturer service method.

Spare planning is not the same for the two formats. EA250INV uses three module sizes that vary by pitch, so a spare module must match the ordered size and pitch. EA-iFilm is documented by area weight, so a spare line should say whether it is supplied by module, panel or area and how it matches the installed film. Keep the display line, spare line, control line, freight and commissioning as separate quotation rows so offers can be compared on the same basis.

Which Film Fits Which Glass Wall Scenario

Choose EA-iFilm when the project needs the documented 90% transparency, approximately 5 mm thickness, 6 kg/m² weight, 2000:1 contrast, 5000 cd/m² brightness and 140° viewing angle, and when high flexibility for various shapes is useful. Choose EA250INV when up to 90% transparency, a 70%–90% configuration-dependent transparency range, three module sizes, P3.91, P6.25 and P10.42 pitch choices, 2 mm modules weighing approximately 1.3–1.5 kg, 1500–4500 cd/m² brightness and up to 9000:1 contrast fit the glass and viewing plan. Confirm the exact quoted configuration before comparing totals.

Application wording also differs. EA-iFilm is documented for glass curtain walls, glass guardrails, glass windows and shop windows. EA250INV is documented for retail windows, shopping malls, exhibition halls, museums, showrooms and creative commercial displays. Match the application to the actual site, then ask for a configuration table. If the glass opening, closest viewer, service route or required transparency cannot be fixed, defer the final model decision rather than comparing totals built on different assumptions.

Indoor Glass Scenario: What to Confirm

Buyer checklist

• State the glass opening, closest viewer, content detail and off-state appearance priority before comparing EA-iFilm and EA250INV.
• Request the exact quoted transparency: EA-iFilm at 90% or EA250INV within the 70%–90% range for the selected pitch and configuration.
• Normalize weight: EA-iFilm at 6 kg/m² versus EA250INV at approximately 1.3–1.5 kg per module; ask for total weight and module count for the opening.
• Confirm mounting scope: EA-iFilm pasted directly to a glass curtain wall; EA250INV mounted directly on suitable indoor glass without a conventional steel support frame.
• Put brightness and refresh on the quoted configuration: EA-iFilm 5000 cd/m² and 3840 Hz; EA250INV 1500–4500 cd/m² and at least 3840 Hz.
• Ask for spare modules tied to the exact model, pitch and module size, and confirm how an installed module is reached for service.

Frequently asked questions

Is EA-iFilm or EA250INV more transparent for an indoor glass wall?

EA-iFilm is documented at 90% transparency. EA250INV is documented up to 90%, with transparency ranging from 70% to 90% by pixel pitch and configuration. For a glass wall where appearance matters, ask for the exact transparency figure for the selected EA250INV pitch and module mix, and compare it with the EA-iFilm 90% figure on the same written row.

Which model has lighter modules for direct glass mounting?

EA250INV modules are 2 mm thick and approximately 1.3–1.5 kg each, depending on module size. EA-iFilm is documented at about 5 mm thickness and 6 kg/m². Because one figure is per module and the other is per square metre, ask for total weight for the actual glass opening before deciding which is easier to handle.

Which model offers more pixel pitch choices?

EA250INV supports P3.91, P6.25 and P10.42 pitches and three module sizes, with available combinations varying by pixel pitch. If viewing distance and content detail require a specific pitch, request the offered pitch, pixel density and module map for the exact model, including EA-iFilm.

Can both EA-iFilm and EA250INV mount directly to glass?

EA-iFilm can be directly pasted to a glass curtain wall. EA250INV mounts directly to suitable indoor glass surfaces and does not require a conventional steel support frame. Neither statement proves that every glass surface is suitable, so ask the supplier to confirm the actual glass, mounting method and any support items included or excluded.

Which model is brighter for a daylight-facing glass wall?

EA-iFilm lists 5000 cd/m² brightness, while EA250INV configurations provide 1500–4500 cd/m². The higher listed figure is not an automatic selection rule; ask for the operating brightness preset and a content test at the glass wall’s actual indoor light level.

What spare planning should be included with either film?

Ask for spare modules tied to the exact ordered configuration. Because EA250INV uses three module sizes and several pitches, and EA-iFilm is documented by area weight, also confirm how an installed module is reached, removed and replaced after direct glass mounting.
