- Mount for the HY300, HY300 Pro
- Puts the picture on a wall or ceiling
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.
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:
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.

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.
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.
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 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 position | Aimed at | Distance | Picture |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wall behind the bed, high | Opposite wall | About 2 m | Around 100 in |
| Wall beside the bed | Ceiling | About 1.5 m up and across | Around 75 in |
| Ceiling above the foot of the bed | Facing wall | About 1.6 m | Around 80 in |
| Dorm wall above a desk | Wall opposite | About 1.2 m | Around 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:
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 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.
| Option | Fixing | Material | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chanvoo drill-free mount | 3M VHB tape or M4 screws | Aluminium | Renters, smooth walls |
| Tellegloww mount | Three screws, nails or anchors | Iron and plastic | Permanent ceiling fixing |
| Boldever ceiling mount | Screws, anti-slip pad | Stainless steel | Barrel projectors of many brands |
| Magcubic 47-inch tripod | None, stands on the floor | Metal | Moving between rooms |
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:
Every mount, tripod and case is grouped by job in HY300 stands and mounts.
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.
Chanvoo asks for at least 24 hours after taping, so the adhesive reaches full strength before it carries the projector.
It is made for HY300 and HY300 Pro series projectors.
Yes, on walls or ceilings. Overhead, screws give the safest hold; tape suits smooth, sound surfaces only.
Yes. The bracket swivels through 180°, so the lens can be aimed at a wall or the ceiling without tools.
