I thought about installing a conduit to keep cables off the floor, which would help avoid tripping. I had worries about cables snagging on my neck, torso, or arms. Have others faced similar concerns? Also, could you tell me the approximate height of the ceiling? Thanks for the update!

Ceiling is a typical standard size here—about 8 feet. We began experimenting with it today; I’m still feeling a bit ticklish from moving around in the attic with the fiberglass. I think we’ll need at least one hook or an eyelite to keep the cord elevated and away from the floor. When we tested the cord with a VR throw, it disconnected, which was fine since there was no damage, but it was concerning because it could have caused the headset to drop. If this wasn’t a pre-existing hole from an old light fixture, placing it at a corner or near the play area edge might be better. However, you’d also need to consider whether the existing cord length would limit reach for others like parents or guests. I used to extend the cord and play in the garage—it worked well for me, but others would have had to pay more attention to the cord’s position.
