I have a MacBook Air (with lightening port) and want to connect to one of three ports on my Vankyo movie projector: HDMI, USB and VGA.
I believe I need a lightning to HDMI cable but all the cable product specs indicate that this kind will work on my iPhone 8, but no mention of whether it will work with my MacBook Air.
Thanks in advance!

Sounds like I need a USB C port to HDMI. Sound right?
A MacBook Air does not have a Lightning port. See the following from MacBook Air - Technical Specifications - Apple
Charging and Expansion
Two Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C) ports with support for:
Charging
DisplayPort
Thunderbolt (up to 40Gb/s)
USB 3.1 Gen 2 (up to 10Gb/s)
Also see the following from the same source:
Video Support
Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display at millions of colors and:
One external 6K display with 6016-by-3384 resolution at 60Hz at millions of colors, or
One external 5K display with 5120-by-2880 resolution at 60Hz at millions of colors, or
Up to two external 4K displays with 4096-by-2304 resolution at 60Hz at millions of colors
Thunderbolt 3 digital video output
Native DisplayPort output over USB‑C
VGA, HDMI, and Thunderbolt 2 output using adapters (sold separately)
It does -- but it isn't something I've done myself.
What cable should I use?
