LED wall that fits

Under a 7.9 m ceiling with 1.5 m trim and 0.3 m clearance you get 12 rows of 500 mm tile flown. Along the 62.2 m wall a Absen PL2.5 Plus V2 wall runs 99 x 12 (19800 x 2400 px, 9,266 kg, 190.1 kW).

Wall sizing assumes 1.5 m trim to the bottom edge, 0.3 m clearance under the ceiling, and a wall no wider than 80% of the longest wall. Weight and power are tile totals from the panel spec sheet; add processing, rigging, and cable.
