Review on πŸŽ₯ Enhance Your Projector Setup with QualGear Qg-PM-002-Wht-S Ceiling Mount Accessory in White by Christopher Kanter

Revainrating 5 out of 5

great price, solid fit.

Hard to beat for the price, very flexible configuration, fairly easy setup and looks good, no plastic parts in critical areas and the metal is decently thick. I used it to hang an Epson 2045 in my basement, which took a little longer than usual because I wanted to streamline the setup. Epson has two front mounting points and one center mounting point, so I removed the two arms and inserted the center screw into one of the spiral slots to get a more neutrally balanced mounting point. As a result, I was able to slightly loosen the adjustment screws for easier fine-tuning until I had the projector in the correct position. I also originally modified the articulation rig by removing one of the brackets (there is a top plate, a middle bracket and a pendant bracket, each rotated 90 degrees and each with a slotted screw giving about 15 degrees of articulation ). However, to reduce the drop by about 2 inches, I found I had to apply vertical keystone correction, so I added it back in for near-perfect alignment with no keystone correction. By using three vertical pivot points, you can easily rotate left-right as well as up/down and x-rotate. This flexibility is good but can be touchy to get things right. Overall I'm happy (aside from screwing it up and turning white I can't blame them for my mess), just a little tinkling was in one of my bolts, there were no washers but there were some, which i might not need to borrow (when i removed the levers i just re-did the washers) comes with various mounting screws, spacers etc to mount pretty much anything. Note on removing the center bracket: you lose left/right alignment so an H-Keystone may be required, but you get about 2 inches closer to the ceiling. The second set of holes didn't really line up with the holes on the projector mount, but I spread that mount apart and squeezed the ceiling mount a bit, and then I lifted the projector, lifting it just a little to the bottom screw holes. came into position. I used the shorter nylon spacers that were originally on the removed bracket. Since you are lifting the projector slightly, your only risk is slipping the projector mount off the ceiling mount screws until you have the bottom screw in place.

Pros
  • Horizontal and vertical tilt adjustment for perfect projection
Cons
  • Expandable
