Projector setup mistakes

[Alan]

When I first set up my projector, I didn’t know how far back it needed to be. I put it way too close and ended up with a tiny screen that barely filled the wall.
Did you mess up anything on your first setup? Let’s share what went wrong so others don’t do the same!

Oh yeah, I totally messed up my first setup. Mounted the projector too high and ended up with a crooked image that needed keystone correction. That looked awful! Learned that I eed to level mount and proper throw distance are key. Now I always check the manual first!
