How to Install Da-Lite Model C 97221 72-inch Manual Projection Screen

To install the Da-Lite Model C 97221, begin by identifying a suitable wall or ceiling location with clear space for the screen to drop and retract. Ensure there is ample clearance above the screen for full extension and that the surface can support the mounting hardware. Use a stud finder to locate solid mounting points and determine the correct mounting height—typically at or slightly above eye level for seated viewers, depending on room seating and projector placement. Attach the mounting brackets securely to the chosen surface using the hardware provided by Da-Lite, verifying that the brackets are level. Hang the screen housing on the brackets and secure it according to the included instructions. Before final use, extend and retract the screen several times to confirm smooth operation and to ensure the CSR mechanism engages properly. Finally, align the screen with the projector’s throw to guarantee a square image, and test the system in a typical viewing scenario to confirm full, unobstructed projection along the screen surface.

Pro tips for optimal results: ensure the installation area is free of dust and obstructions that could interfere with the retraction path, check that the ceiling or wall brackets are securely anchored to structural members, and periodically inspect the mounting hardware for signs of wear. If mounting on a ceiling, use appropriate safety precautions during installation and consider a second installer to assist with lifting and alignment. Regularly operate the CSR mechanism to keep it functioning smoothly and to prevent a stiff or sticky pull-down.

GREAT way to view TV
On initial set up and use of just few days I love this little light bar I'm 74 and I set this up in less than 10 min. Playing with Govee App took about same time for basic functions. The backlighting is great and now my room is lighted during night when I sleepwalk to bathroom. I'll decide later if I want to use adhesive pads. Currently it just sits on TV stand behind TV. All in all it's great! I would definitely buy again and highly recommend. Colors in photos are actually less bright in my room. The Govee App allows many many color variations. Just set up and create color palate for favorite colors and patterns. Eezee Peezee

Outstanding TV backlight edition
Item Package Quantity: 2, Item Package Quantity: 2
This is an excellent addition to a TV backlight. If you go into the GOVEE app you can sync this device to a TV backlight with a camera. You can add up to five lights. I recommend this for either a TV backlight or general ambience in the room at night. UPDATE 2025: I actually have 4 of these. 3 of them I synced with the TV strip light/camera using the GOVEE app for TV watching. The 4th one I use is on ambience lamp. These are made very durable/easy to set up. These things are not cheaply made I highly recommend

Look nice and were an easy setup.
Item Package Quantity: 2
Simple and do what they are supposed to do. I use them to add a bit of flare to my desktop setup for online meetings, etc. If I had to nitpick, I'd say cabling is always interesting to route to reduce desk clutter, but I am not going to remove a star for what pretty much has to be. They look nice too.

Good, but missing white (ww) hues hurt performance
Item Package Quantity: 2, Item Package Quantity: 2
I bought these lights just a little over a year ago, and overall I’m pleased with them. I bought them because standard strip lighting does not work well with the shape of my ultra flat TV, something I did not consider on purchasing the TV. The lighting effects that these can produce are really impressive, at times you can see what appears to be the individual LEDs and the effects are somewhat more granular or pixelated than other lights from GOVEE. The issue I have with these lights is that they are not able to produce cool, white and warm white, and they do not render colors like other bulbs from GOVEE. Colors on these lights tend to be brighter than every other light source I have from Govee, including their lightbulbs and their floor lamps. Although I knew about the white rendering, I did not realize how annoying it would be to see warm, white and cool, white rendered poorly on these TV lights. If you want to truly seamless and integrated looking product, I suggest you look elsewhere as these aren’t quite there. If you don’t care or are using these in a room where you don’t have any other light sources from Govee, then go for it — you’ll love them.
