working from home

Our working methods have changed a lot in the last few years. Professionals no longer have to limit themselves to typical workplace settings. Rapid technological improvements and a global shift in workplace culture have made working from home, or WFH, more than a short-term fix; for many firms, it is now a long-term strategy.

how to reduce projector fan noise

Projectors are awesome. They turn your wall into a movie screen, make game nights more intense, and help you pull off slick presentations. But then… there’s that noise. That low, steady hum that sounds like your projector’s trying to take off like a tiny jet engine.

Yep, it’s the fan. And while it’s just doing its job (keeping the projector from cooking itself), it can get loud enough to bug you, especially during quiet scenes or serious work. 

Let’s discuss where that noise comes from, what you can do to keep it down, and how some smart designs (like the one fromCZUR StarryHub) are fixing the problem for good.
