mrk Reviews Posted April 4, 2009 Reviews Share Posted April 4, 2009 Finally one that can handle the weight of my 24" screen which is aluminium all over so quite how it weighs 11KG I don't know! The height is perfectly fine as well which is a bonus for me, the main thing was reach and movement which it does perfectly, can watch from the armchair or from bed no problems. So impressed in fact I'm going to get a wallmount Ergotron for the 32" Samsung in the games room. Pics: lowest: highest: portrait: arm extended: arm retracted: good for keeping the probe on while calibrating too :D base: Thinking back to when I had the LX, I don't think you will get much height adjustment on any arm really with a 24" screen due to them being so big - you'd need an arm with an extra long...arm and the cost would be beyond ?100 I'd imagine too.

MasterC Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Nice review (Y) I wish I could get some arms for my screens, but I haven't been able to find articulating ones for my 30" that aren't too terribly expensive. :/ Edit: Kind of OT, but what brand of calibrator is that?

mrk Reviews Posted April 4, 2009 Author Reviews Share Posted April 4, 2009 That's the problem I had for the 24" ! the cheap ones were weak and supported screens that were way below 24" and the ones that were 24" capable 11KG+ were too expensive, in the end I said sod it and got the Ergotron :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chizu Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 Can this thing do a 30" LCD in portrait mode? The monitor is about 27.5" wide. Please let me know. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrk Reviews Posted April 14, 2009 Author Reviews Share Posted April 14, 2009 Should be able to, you put into portrait mode by tilting the screen so SHOULD have no issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrk Reviews Posted April 14, 2009 Author Reviews Share Posted April 14, 2009 You can drill a hole if you want otherwise it clamps onto the edge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chizu Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 measure what :? I don't know how big your monitor is but all you have to do do is take the excess of 27.5" and divide that by half to test for portrait mode. For example, your monitor is 22" wide and my monitor is 27.5" wide. 27.5" - (minus) 22" = 5.5/(divided)2= 2.75" Now turn your monitor in portrait mode and add 2.75" to the bottom of the monitor to see if it will touch your desk. I hope I didn't confuse you :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrk Reviews Posted April 14, 2009 Author Reviews Share Posted April 14, 2009 You misunderstand, the monitor tilts during rotation so there's no chance of it hitting the desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chizu Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 You misunderstand, the monitor tilts during rotation so there's no chance of it hitting the desk. So you can't have it straight portrait mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrk Reviews Posted April 14, 2009 Author Reviews Share Posted April 14, 2009 My 24" can, a 30" should be able to as well. The Ergotron site says 30" is max supported too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
