Which Micro / Pico projector for halloween decorations?

Hi, I'm wondering which micro / pico projector decorations you guys are using? I'm trying to get two effects - skeleton dancing in the window, and scary jackolantern moving on the side of my house.

Sort of like this:

I purchased the Eyeclops projector from Toys R Us for $99, but it's definitely not bright enough or high enough resolution for the job so I returned it.

So now I'm thinking about getting this AAXA projector:

It's small, runs off batteries (but only 1 hour) and has an onboard video player so I can load the video directly.

However do you guys think this will work? Is it bright enough at 12 lumens? I found a video online, but I'd like to get some feedback too.

$219 is sort of expensive too since I want two of them. But I guess I can keep one and sell the other one.

What do you guys with a few years decorating experience think?

TIA!

I think its a great idea :) where do you purchase something like this? and on the first youtube video on your post, how many of these projectors were they using?
Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!
