I didn't know if this should be posted in the Monitor/Video forum but here goes:
I have a small 10x8 room that I use as a lab/chill out room/Study that has just enough room for a slim arcade cabinet, next to my desk similar to turnarcades mini slim.
I have retired my old cabinet and I just resort to the X-arcade, but the space it uses also serves as the space for the projector, and I'm tired of the swap and change.
In my design I want to position my projector on the top of a cabinet to give it better airflow and give a better viewing angle.
Unfortunately I fear that all the jarring and movement of the cabinet when in play will damage the projector, so I looked at a ceiling mount.
The ceiling isn't such a good idea as the house is rather old and would crack the plaster, look unsightly, cost, and I would get grief etc.
What I did look at was the mounts you would use for a LCD TV and bracket the projector to the wall, similar to a TV mount.
Has anybody tried this, and would it give the projector adequate airflow?
Currently I have the projector on a table, and is put away when not in use, which I fear again will shorten its life somewhat.
The Projector kicks out quite a large amount of heat and is rather noisy, but is tolerated with headphones so location is restricted.
If you have any other ideas, I would like to hear them.
Thanks.
