This post is meant to inform and not alarm. THe LT150 is a great little machine but keep in mind it never received UL approval for ceiling mounting. Now the internal menus etc will allow you to invert the image and Peerless does sell a mount for it no problem. I just want everyone to make sure that you do not try to impede the ventilation in anyway or put the unit too close to a flammable surface( for those of you in Rio Linda ....don't build a hush box out of Balsa wood).


Many of you may have never even seen the unit let alone hold it in your hand. This unit will literally burn your hand if your not careful.( hand directly over the exhaust port). I post this as I received an e-mail from a forum member that I met at INFOCOMM which reminded me of my discussion with CHief MAnufacturing as I was trying to get them to make a mount for me (LT150/85) they do not and will not make a mount for the UL reason. ALso I realize that if anybody is going to ceiling mount this unit it is forum members..so just be smart. I'd rather you watched BAckDraft than to star in your own version of it.

I made a hushbox and bought a little brushless fan that exhausts ALL heat out. I think if someone is going to spend the time to build a hushbox a small fan of some sort is a MUST!!!

So by 'be smart', do you mean "Don't ceiling mount it!" or do you mean "Be smart, and do a firesafe ceiling mount".


If the latter, what do you recommend?

Hi Jose,


Just saying if you are goign to ceiling mount it just be cautios as to what you have surrounding the unit. It is not uncommon to ceiling mount near a back wall where you might have a high bookcase with papers on it or since it is a no zoom..one might be tempted to put it too close to somthing as it can only go that specific distance..

So basically what you're saying is a BURN IN theater night wouldn't be as well recieved as a DIVE IN theater night?

I was born just outside of Rio Linda (it's a beautiful place).

If I mount my projector on the ceiling should I reverse the electric plug?

KB,


Yeah that is what i am saying. Hey if you can e-mail me your address so I can send you the lens cap that I promised you just after the Apollo 13 launch


Good one Robert....


Keep the plug as is...unless you like the image better reversed..


REgards,

The image reversed??


I thought that if you reversed the plug, the projector would actually suck-in the light of the content, leaving a negatively projected movie in the room.


Must be a southern hemisphere thing then... Not that I've ever been there. http://www.avsforum.com/ubb/cool.gif
