WEBVTT

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:08.320
this 120 inch projection setup for the lounge is gonna be freaking awesome oh

00:00:06.000 --> 00:00:10.800
no i'm gonna fall like the mount separates from

00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:15.040
i'm beginning to think this may have been a big mistake this video is brought

00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:18.480

at the link below

00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:42.079
back in our old lounge setup we had a super nice 120 inch elan vision tab

00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:46.719
tension screen one of the nice things about that screen was that it was 4k

00:00:44.559 --> 00:00:51.440
capable that is to say that the finish on it was fine enough that you could

00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:56.160
actually resolve those pixels we were gonna just reuse the same one but elon

00:00:53.920 --> 00:01:02.239
vision reaches out and they go no you want the new 8k evo reference screen so

00:01:00.559 --> 00:01:04.720
what does that even mean i don't know let's flip it open

00:01:03.760 --> 00:01:09.840
up oh i don't know if you're supposed to open it that way no i think probably not

00:01:08.080 --> 00:01:13.760
that's a new one it's got an allen key in it but it's not bent now if you're a

00:01:12.080 --> 00:01:18.720
regular viewer you probably saw our recent video on the

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:22.400
fancy pants epson epic vision laser projection tv setup but there's a couple

00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:30.000
of reasons it doesn't quite work for our setup and the biggest one is right over

00:01:24.880 --> 00:01:32.079
here our 30 000 lg signature z10 olet

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:37.600
that is what we're going to want a game on the projector screen comes down in

00:01:35.119 --> 00:01:42.079
front of the tv as a large format display for movies or gaming with a big

00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:46.720
group once we've all got our vaccinations yes get your vaccination

00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:51.280
bill gates told me to tell you man these are some chungus brackets so

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:55.280
one thing to consider with this screen is we have 24 inches of black drop

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:58.560
that's on the top of the screen so 59 inches i think it'd probably be like

00:01:56.719 --> 00:02:01.759
right there so it's gonna have so many holes in this wall once we figure out

00:02:00.399 --> 00:02:06.960
whatever height we want the screen at you can twist the little knob and that sets the like lowest it'll go so when

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:10.319
you click open all the way it stops at that point oh it's pretty heavy Jake you

00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:14.319
think we should just put it in with drywall anchors what if you watched our

00:02:12.800 --> 00:02:17.680
epic vision video you'll probably remember we couldn't find a stud the

00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:20.959
stud fighter said oh there's a stud here oh there's a stud here there's where the

00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:25.440
actual stud is this will find the perfect spot in the middle yeah is this

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:28.720
right it just hangs off of these you can mount it directly to the wall you can

00:02:27.040 --> 00:02:32.879
mount it directly to the ceiling if you have like brick let's just measure how

00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:36.080
far this is so it's nine feet okay so maybe let's do eight feet that way we

00:02:34.720 --> 00:02:39.599
have some wiggle room all right let's do it here okay we got a marked center

00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:44.319
somehow no three inches seem fine enough yeah minus

00:02:41.519 --> 00:02:47.599
just used to three inches what are you trying to do i'm just

00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:51.040
finding studs oh ow can you get this off me i quit i haven't

00:02:49.519 --> 00:02:54.480
even told you the interesting part yet the problem with steel stud if we're

00:02:52.640 --> 00:02:57.840
mounting heavy screen you can't just like put a deck screw into it right so

00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:04.080
what do you do oh you gotta get those stupid flangy things yeah oh no and the

00:03:01.920 --> 00:03:09.360
problem is steel stud is also not very wide so you got to hit it right on the

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:12.000
spot you excited no the way the toggle

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:16.159
anchor works is you actually twist it like this put the whole thing through

00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:19.519
the hole then you can kind of see that you can adjust it so it's

00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:23.040
vertical so it aligns with your stud you pull this little plastic tab and it kind

00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:27.519
of zips can you see the zip tie teeth there and then it holds it in close to the

00:03:25.519 --> 00:03:32.879
drywall so you're actually screwing into this pre-threaded hole that's a strong

00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:36.000
material here super cool it looks very weird hey

00:03:33.920 --> 00:03:40.080
stand on a chair you say you know this is a rolling chair right

00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:44.239
are you trying to kill me you weigh like 110 pounds it's fine sorry i've never

00:03:42.239 --> 00:03:47.840
actually used this there's a button on that side yeah you gotta go this way

00:03:45.840 --> 00:03:54.080
like the smallest amount oh how about now oh oh oh how about now oh boy how

00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:55.360
about now are you drunk i can't see it

00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:59.680
hold on now i am barely even touching it okay how

00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:04.159
about now about the same but you're on the other side now what

00:04:02.400 --> 00:04:07.840
how much do you trust me i mean you did put extra holes in the wall last time

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:12.239
you're not wrong oh that's a stud baby i can see it

00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:17.919
okay there we go so yeah we're definitely in the middle of the stud because i can't turn it at all nice

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:22.720
first try so you were saying uh you wanted this to be more challenging and we should throw

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:24.960
stuff at you right how about this oh you pillow

00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:29.840
moment of truth oh look at that it's

00:04:28.960 --> 00:04:36.479
mint now for the projector itself we reached out to epson this is the epson 605u beam

00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:40.080
if we put it next to the dinky little thing we had in the lounge before you

00:04:38.080 --> 00:04:45.360
could probably fit four of them inside this it could eat them and a huge part

00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:48.400
of why this thing is so big is the lens

00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:51.040
it is a proper motorized unit with a

00:04:48.400 --> 00:04:56.639
huge range of lens shift which allows the lens to actually shift the projected

00:04:54.560 --> 00:05:00.479
image around to accommodate a wider range of mounting options you want your

00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:03.840
projector to be mounted right in line with the center of your screen which in

00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:08.240
our case that would require the projector to hang like five

00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:12.960
six feet down from the ceiling which would suck because you could easily hit

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:18.000
your head on it when you're walking around to combat this most people end up

00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:21.280
mounting their projector up high tilting it down to line up with where they want

00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:27.280
their screen to be and then using keystone to fix the weird angle and make

00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:31.360
the edges perpendicular it's not ideal because keystoning is done digitally

00:05:29.520 --> 00:05:34.080
which means the image will no longer be native resolution which can hurt

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.280
sharpness and if you're going to spend the money on a 4k projector 4k or 8k

00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:43.600
resolution screen the last thing you want to do is go and add keystone to it

00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:48.080
but with proper lens shift we can have the projector just a few feet down from

00:05:45.440 --> 00:05:52.080
the ceiling and then shift the whole image without distorting it to line up

00:05:49.919 --> 00:05:56.319
with our screen now this guy's rated for 2600 lumens with both color and white

00:05:54.320 --> 00:06:00.639
output but many reviewers say they saw in excess of 3 000 lumens in the

00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:04.800
brighter modes which is sweet another thing that's cool is even though it's 4k

00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:09.120
enhanced which means the actual projection chip is 1080p but then it

00:06:07.120 --> 00:06:15.680
shifts over a pixel at twice the refresh rate it's not dlp like our old projector

00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:20.800
was so instead this one uses epson's own three lcd technology which uses a prism

00:06:18.319 --> 00:06:25.600
to split the lamp or the led light into r g and b which is then passed through

00:06:23.199 --> 00:06:29.120
three distinct lcd panels to show the image in each given color and then those

00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:33.759
are all combined and projected through the lens that means no rainbow effect

00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:41.440
and typically better power efficiency we've got an 18 gigabit HDMI 2.0 we've

00:06:37.600 --> 00:06:43.759
got serial control lan vga because we've

00:06:41.440 --> 00:06:48.800
got a usb power port here that we can use to power our active HDMI cable and

00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:55.280
the last noteworthy thing to talk about is mounting this was a pre-loved media

00:06:52.639 --> 00:06:59.599
sample so unfortunately it didn't come with a mounting plate fortunately we

00:06:57.520 --> 00:07:04.000
have a Jake and a collin and a pretty sick shop and we were able to whip up a

00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:08.319
quick design and route out our own aluminum mounting adapter then we just

00:07:06.000 --> 00:07:12.800
need to attach that to our benq extendable ceiling mount and boom put

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:15.680
the projector on it that's super upside down whatever it doesn't matter we just

00:07:14.160 --> 00:07:20.400
need to make sure we get the distance right and according to epson's projector

00:07:17.919 --> 00:07:24.280
calculator our screen not the wall the screen needs to be at least 11.8 feet

00:07:23.520 --> 00:07:31.120
away 11.8 feet great dimensions right

00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:34.880
11.8 feet but how do you measure 0.8 of a foot so fortunately ceiling grids are

00:07:33.039 --> 00:07:38.960
a standard this is two by four so it makes it pretty easy for us to go one

00:07:36.479 --> 00:07:42.720
two three four five six twelve now i was originally concerned when i

00:07:40.880 --> 00:07:45.680
lined it up here that the light but i think we just put it on this side and

00:07:44.160 --> 00:07:50.800
just move the screen over an inch it's 30 pounds so what we're just gonna mount

00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:52.560
it to the t-bar no the actual trusses

00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:55.919
that support the ceiling if you look at the way that they're designed it's kind

00:07:53.840 --> 00:07:59.120
of like a little edge on each side yeah and i

00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:02.960
measured it out so i went and bought some two by ten and i was thinking we

00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:05.919
just cut it to that size and just looked pretty freaking easy right yeah let's do

00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:09.759
that all right so we can worry about safety later you ready here we go let go

00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:13.680
now yeah just put your wood in here i've given you my wood it's all in you wow

00:08:12.400 --> 00:08:18.000
you're pretty pretty good at handling wood oh yeah i can't see a thing with

00:08:16.080 --> 00:08:21.680
that light in my eyes oh wow that's really tight

00:08:23.280 --> 00:08:28.240
i ah look at that okay let's see if it's

00:08:27.039 --> 00:08:34.080
strong oh my oh no wow that was really dumb

00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:39.630
don't worry i got this wait

00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:43.919
nobody could have saw that coming

00:08:46.640 --> 00:08:52.560
it's really not that heavy so oh shut up okay um

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:56.560
all right now i have it can you reach well look just get off the ladder it's

00:08:55.120 --> 00:09:01.360
really heavy if you want to well you told me it wasn't i can't

00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:06.080
get it up oh come on come on

00:09:03.680 --> 00:09:09.839
ow okay let's try that there's only a 30 000 OLED behind

00:09:08.880 --> 00:09:14.800
okay oh no what the power cord's over there and the

00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:17.839
plugs over here no it doesn't matter it's going in the ceiling oh it's a good

00:09:16.399 --> 00:09:23.320
thing that i didn't remove this in the uk because then it might have breaks it

00:09:27.760 --> 00:09:33.760
there we go so how come we didn't go with a gray screen the problem with an

00:09:31.839 --> 00:09:38.000
ambient light rejecting screen is that the viewing angles aren't exactly

00:09:35.440 --> 00:09:40.640
fantastic always damn daniel how far down does it go

00:09:40.800 --> 00:09:46.000
i think that's good that feels pretty good okay so you're on the screen yeah

00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:50.880
yeah we're definitely good because i've got 12 feet to here oh nice i think

00:09:48.880 --> 00:09:54.240
we'll take the mount plate and like put the rod on it just so we're getting that

00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:57.600
corner proper and then sort of mark it and then drill it it works out to be

00:09:56.160 --> 00:10:01.550
just about right there so just take the nuts off watch this you'll you're going

00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:02.880
to love my nuts

00:10:02.880 --> 00:10:08.160
Jake i need you back over here i forgot my nut washer

00:10:06.480 --> 00:10:12.560
you got to put that on there because what the hell why did you just let go of

00:10:11.040 --> 00:10:18.640
it why did you just i was just trying to tilt it forward what even was that can

00:10:14.880 --> 00:10:20.399
you uh grab my tiny nut here twist

00:10:18.640 --> 00:10:25.519
what are we doing right now they're parfait so that should oh okay

00:10:23.760 --> 00:10:29.760
heavy projector right here do a few reps of that just ah

00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:32.480
do we need to access these bolts i mean once it's already in there it's not

00:10:30.959 --> 00:10:36.560
going to matter or just leave it for now just like the mount separates from

00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:41.839
that's what i was trying to say is you can just pull it right out there's a reason we do the things we do

00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.839
oh i just realized that the mount location is not necessarily the lens of

00:10:43.839 --> 00:10:49.600
the projector oh we should do it on the other side let's do it on the other side

00:10:47.839 --> 00:10:52.480
you're moving the thing so much every time should be fine

00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:59.519
how's that in your eyes good i love the screen size but the

00:10:56.959 --> 00:11:04.640
mounting process is just so tedious and this is even with a drop ceiling this is

00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:04.640
your best case scenario

00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:11.600
so wait what do i just pop this on there hold on put this on here first

00:11:08.160 --> 00:11:11.600
thanks Jake that's really helpful

00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.839
don't worry i got this

00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:22.160
he's a small man on a big ladder small man big ladder episode three will he

00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:27.120
drop the projector oh oh god i'll let it fall on me oh god the

00:11:25.200 --> 00:11:33.519
water's in the wrong spot really is the ladder in the way oh my god hold on no

00:11:29.440 --> 00:11:33.519
no it's it's fine it's fine

00:11:34.560 --> 00:11:39.519
is it on i don't know

00:11:37.680 --> 00:11:42.720
i think it's on yeah it's on it's on okay wow this is sick oh yeah i'll turn

00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:45.680
it on so this is what we're talking about

00:11:44.160 --> 00:11:51.040
where if we didn't have lens shift we basically have to go like this but

00:11:47.440 --> 00:11:51.040
because we do theoretically

00:11:53.760 --> 00:12:01.200
that's so cool i love optics for you home cinnamon nerds this is like um yeah

00:11:59.680 --> 00:12:05.040
about every projector in the last 20 years we were getting it all aligned and

00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:09.600
dialed in and then i realized this is a 50 foot active optical HDMI cable from

00:12:08.079 --> 00:12:14.240
infinite cables and all of that is pretty neat except when you consider

00:12:11.920 --> 00:12:19.200
that it is HDMI 2.1 certified so that makes it pretty

00:12:16.560 --> 00:12:22.560
freaking baller this projector looks way better than the old one just even on the

00:12:20.959 --> 00:12:26.480
patterns boy is this not a light rejecting screen though we're gonna have

00:12:24.160 --> 00:12:31.600
to go close those Windows damn daniel this thing pops this is way brighter

00:12:29.120 --> 00:12:36.639
