Installing huge tv with drywall lifter ?


As TV’s have become insanely large and heavy, it’s getting harder and harder to find a friend to come help.. I’ve exhausted all my helpers and need a tool move my 85 in Sony (110lbs) by myself. All I need to do is add an Apple TV. Quick and simple and not worth calling a friend again. 

Surely someone has a tool, jack, or lift for quickly lifting a TV on the wall. I was told a Drywall Lift may be what I’m looking for but those sure are big. 

Anyone else had any luck with something like this?

Apple TV has a small box, hdmi out, and wireless remote.

That TV has 1 side and 3 bottom HDMI inputs. Won't long pliers reach those easily?

 

 

Depending on the type of mount that is used, you shouldn't have to take down the TV for a small device like an AppleTV or a Roku.  Usually, you can access the ports from the side of the TV, unless it's a very thin mount that hold the TV very close to the wall.  

Since it's dark back there, you can use one of these in order to see what you're doing:  Optional life Telescoping LED Lighted Flexible Inspection Mirror 360 Swivel for Extra Viewing: Amazon.com: Industrial & Scientific

Hold the mirror with one hand and plug in the HDMI with the other.
