Product Features
Technical Overview
The EXT-1830 features a telescoping mechanism with an outer mast and inner mast that slide smoothly to adjust the extension length. This design provides a height range of 18 inches to 30 inches, allowing fine-tuning of projector placement to achieve ideal throw distances and screen alignment. The extension uses a 1.5-inch NPT pipe thread for secure attachment to compatible VMP ceiling mounts, ensuring a stable connection that minimizes vibration and sway.
Constructed from heavy-duty materials, the extension supports projectors up to the weight limits of the attached ceiling mount, with an approximate weight of 6.50 pounds for the extension itself. The included hex screw and nylon nut facilitate easy assembly and adjustment, while the compact cross-section of 1.90 inches by 1.90 inches maintains a low-profile appearance in installed environments.
