Chanvoo Drill-Free Wall Mount

Chanvoo's aluminium bracket lifts an HY300 or HY300 Pro off the nightstand and onto a wall or ceiling, held by 3M VHB tape where drilling is off the table, or by the stainless M4 screws in the same bag.

A ceiling cinema in a rented bedroom, no drill required

Tenancy agreements and plasterboard walls stop plenty of ceiling-cinema plans before they start. The Chanvoo mount gets around both. A strip of 3M VHB tape holds the aluminium bracket to a smooth wall or ceiling, and the HY300 or HY300 Pro twists onto it and is locked with screws. When the lease ends, the bracket comes down without a single hole to fill.

What makes it more than a sticky shelf:

  • Two ways to fix it. 3M VHB tape for a drill-free setup, or the included stainless M4 × 25 mm screws when drilling is allowed.
  • Aluminium body. Solid alloy with a powder coat that resists rust, at just 80 g.
  • 180° swivel. Aim the lens after fitting, from a wall straight across to the ceiling, with no tools.
  • Made for the HY300 base. Chanvoo shapes it for HY300 and HY300 Pro series projectors.

Lifting the projector off the nightstand changes a bedroom film night. Cables no longer drape across the pillow, a cup of tea no longer shares a shelf with the lens, and the picture sits where nobody's head blocks it.

The same bracket works in a dorm, a kids' room or a home office where the desk is too crowded for a projector. It is black, so on a dark ceiling or a feature wall it all but disappears; on white paint it reads as a neat little box.

Tape now, screws later. Start with VHB tape while renting. If you move somewhere you can drill, the M4 screws in the same box turn the mount into a permanent fixing with no new purchase.

Letting the 3M VHB tape cure a full day before the first film

VHB tape is industrial double-sided foam, the kind used to hold panels on buildings, but it only reaches full strength when the surface is right and the bond has time to build. Chanvoo asks for at least 24 hours before trusting it with the projector. Skipping that wait is the most common way a tape mount lets go.

  1. Pick a smooth, sound surface. Gloss or satin paint, tile or glass bond best; textured plaster, wallpaper and flaking paint do not.
  2. Clean it. Wipe the spot with isopropyl alcohol and let it dry, so no dust or grease sits under the tape.
  3. Press hard. Peel the backing, place the bracket and hold firm pressure for a good half-minute.
  4. Wait a day. Leave the bracket empty for at least 24 hours before fitting the projector.
  5. Attach the projector. Twist it onto the bracket, lock it with the screws, then swivel the lens into place.

Fresh paint needs weeks to cure before any tape holds well on it, so a newly decorated room is a job for the screws instead.

Ceilings deserve extra caution. On a wall the tape mostly resists sliding, while overhead it hangs the full weight straight down. Where drilling is allowed, the M4 screws are the calmer choice above a bed.

  • Wall, tape: fine on smooth, clean paint after a full day's cure.
  • Ceiling, tape: only on a smooth, sound surface, and never over a pillow if you can help it.
  • Wall or ceiling, screws: the strongest hold, with wall plugs suited to the surface.

When the time comes to remove a taped bracket, twist it slowly or work dental floss behind it. Pulling straight off can lift paint with it.

Where it plays in the range

Aiming the 180° swivel at a wall, the ceiling or a screen

Where the bracket goes decides the picture size, because an HY300 grows its picture with distance. Most HY300 lenses throw at about 0.9:1, so every metre between the lens and the surface adds roughly 1.1 m of picture width. Plan the position before the tape goes on.

Bracket positionAimed atDistancePicture
Wall behind the bed, highOpposite wallAbout 2 mAround 100 in
Wall beside the bedCeilingAbout 1.5 m up and acrossAround 75 in
Ceiling above the foot of the bedFacing wallAbout 1.6 mAround 80 in
Dorm wall above a deskWall oppositeAbout 1.2 mAround 60 in

Sizes follow from the 0.9:1 ratio and round generously. Check yours by holding the projector in place and switching it on before the bracket is fixed.

Three settings finish the job once it is up:

  • Keystone. Auto keystone squares a tilted picture; a mount aimed straight on needs less correction and stays sharper at the corners.
  • Focus. Manual-focus models need the wheel turned once after mounting; reach it before the bracket goes too high.
  • Flip. Mounted upside down on a ceiling, set the projection mode to ceiling so the picture reads the right way up.

Leave a hand's width of clearance around the projector's vents. A bracket pressed tight into a corner traps warm air, and HY300s run cooler with space to breathe. Route the power cable down the wall with a few adhesive clips so its weight never tugs at the bracket.

The HY300 screen size chart gives distances for every size, and the keystone and focus guide explains how far the auto correction reaches.

Chanvoo tape, Tellegloww screws or a floor tripod

Chanvoo is one of several ways to get an HY300 off the furniture. The right one depends on whether you can drill, how often the projector moves and what surface you are aiming it from.

Fitting is quick either way: a tape fixing takes minutes plus a day's patience, a screw fixing takes a drill and ten minutes.

The Chanvoo's advantage is the choice it gives: no holes today, screws tomorrow. A screw-only bracket is stronger from day one but needs a drill and the landlord's blessing. A tripod skips fixings entirely and follows the projector from bedroom to garden.

Weight also counts for tape. The Chanvoo itself is only 80 g, and a slim HY300 Pro adds well under a kilogram, which is the kind of load VHB tape is made for. Chunkier bodies on speaker bases are a better match for the screws, which take the question of load off the table entirely.

Three checks decide it:

  • Your projector. Chanvoo lists the HY300 and HY300 Pro; wider or ball-shaped bodies need a different mount.
  • Your surface. Smooth and sound for tape; anything else calls for screws.
  • Warranty. Chanvoo covers the mount for six months.

Every mount, tripod and case is grouped by job in HY300 stands and mounts.

Setup and screen questions

Does the Chanvoo mount need drilling?

No. It can hang on 3M VHB tape with no holes. Stainless M4 × 25 mm screws come in the box for anyone who can drill.

How long before I can put the projector on the Chanvoo mount?

Chanvoo asks for at least 24 hours after taping, so the adhesive reaches full strength before it carries the projector.

Which projectors fit the Chanvoo mount?

It is made for HY300 and HY300 Pro series projectors.

Can the Chanvoo mount go on the ceiling?

Yes, on walls or ceilings. Overhead, screws give the safest hold; tape suits smooth, sound surfaces only.

Can I adjust the angle after mounting?

Yes. The bracket swivels through 180°, so the lens can be aimed at a wall or the ceiling without tools.
