Review on QualGear QG KIT CA 3IN W Projector Accessory Ceiling by Kevin Lawson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Mostly perfect for mounting

This is a REALLY solid mount that I am currently using on the Optoma HD37 project (and hope to use it with the larger/new mount soon!). It took a bit of fiddling with the mounting arms to balance it properly, but once you get the hang of it you should be fine. Be careful not to lose the hex keys that come with the kit. Brackets as they are "safety keys" that have a hole in the center that aligns with a pin in the center of some of the bracket's set screws. I set it up a little differently than I've seen elsewhere as I hung the projector in a bay behind the wall of the room I was projecting into. I used a standard corner iron from a major hardware store (the thing commonly used to hang roller shutter doors); and screwed the projector mount to it. I also ended up buying a very short 1" x 2" NPT pipe nipple to use as a short vertical rod since the manufacturer doesn't have many options for other pipe lengths. Using regular NPT tube means you can't screw it in deep (mine was about 3/8-1/2 on both ends). In any case, it's a good solid mount with enough adjustability to get me centering the projector properly in the wall cutout; which required a bit more precision than I expected :)

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Some difficulties
