[1.02 lb] we just used these to mount some pretty heavy LED panels in a studio we built for a client. We mounted a wall plate to the concrete ceiling above the drop ceiling, and used these to get the light to the right height below the drop. Didn't even use all the stages, but it's great to have the flexibility.

[1.02 lb] I had ordered a telescoping light stand with attached adjustable clamp for my desktop from Amazon. While it was serviceable, I was never completely pleased with it. The cheap clamp never tightened down to the desk shelf securely and the whole assembly wobbled and moved when I attached my Dracast 18 inch ring light on top of it.

This extension (in conjunction with a Impact Super Clamp) completely solved my issues and replaced the Amazon product. The Impact Super Clamp attaches to my desktop shelf with a vice-like grip. This extension in turn attaches firmly to the clamp for a rock-solid solution. There is absolutely no wobble or movement when I attach the ring light to the top of the extension. I have complete confidence in this worry-free set up and would highly recommend it.

[1.02 lb] Perfect for what I need

[1.02 lb] I use about 8 of these in our studio for hanging overhead camera and microphones for our Dungeons and Dragons stream on twitch. These work so well with Mafer clamps on our grid. They are exactly the right size. small enough to get out of the way when not in use, and long enough to reach people sitting at table. highly recommend for anyone that needs to hang lightweight items from a grid.

[5/8" Stud] J'ai d acheter un adaptateur pour fixer une camra mais a marche trs bien. Quand elle est inutilise, je la remonte au plafond.

[5/8" Receiver] With an inexpensive tube cutter and 5/32 allen wrench you can easily disassemble, cut down, and reassemble this stand extension to make it shorter. It also helps to have a small file for removing any burs. You simply have to cut a uniform amount off of each tube section. Unfortunately, you will have to cut off the flared end on the smallest tube which prevents it from being over extended, yet the flared ends for all other tube sections can be left intact by simply cutting the opposite non-flared ends.

In my case I needed to mount a teleprompter approximately 17 inches plus or minus a few inches above the top of a sit stand desk, and could not find an appropriate tripod after a great deal of searching. All the tripods were either too tall, too short, were not adjustable within the range needed, or couldn't handle the weight. A combination of an 18 round board from Home Depot, a Mathews mounting plate with a 5/8 receiver, a Manfrotto 208 3/8 head mounting plate, and the modified Matthews telescopic baby stand extension did the trick. I ended up shortening the stand extension twice, as I didn't cut enough off the first time.

My decision to attach the mounting plate with bolts and washers required a slight countersink on the underside of the board to make room for them. Wood screws might have been just as secure, and would certainly have been quicker.
