  1. i just recently purchased a 2nd NB monitor mount for my zowie XL2546 and i had quite alot of trouble with the mount it had to be at an exact height or it would fall down or fly up, i have since returned it and am looking for a new monitor mount, anyone have any recommendations would prefer if there available on amazon AUS and under $100AUD

  2. i have the dual arm of the Wali one, but its generic with no brand (should be the same since that brand sounds made up). I dont like it very much, its very flimsy, and the monitors dont stay center when you move it around. I ordered some North Bayou ones this time, since they seem a bit better quality, i had ordered an amazon basics that supposed to be ergotron copy, but they canceled my order.

  3. I'm buying a monitor arm for the first time. Does the North Bayou arm require that your desk be pulled away from the wall? My desk is currently against the wall and I'd rather not reposition it if possible.

  4. North Bayou Monitor Desk Mount Long Arm for 22''-35''Monitors from 4.4 to 26.4lbs Ultra Wide Full Motion Swivel Height Adjustable Monitor Stand H100-B is better then the first one you had.

  5. I assume an exceeded patent to be the cause for all these arms looking and working the same.
    as it seems the money on the patent was well spend considering the great quality all of the other manufacturers deliver by blueprint/coping from it now.

  6. Found a lot of these at goodwill now as people are getting out of day trading stocks (retirement area), and got them for 4-5$ each. Each time I go I find a single arm, an arm for a laptop, microphone arms, and double/tripple arm setups.

  7. I have the Huanuo on a 27in monitor. I have zero problem rotating my monitor landscape and literally upside down. You simply need to leave the wire with a enough slack to spin it. It's super strong and once you get tension right it's great. I'd 100% recommend it. The cable management is great. too.

  8. I have been building multi-monitor flight sims, mostly 3 wide, for over 20 years…blah blah blah. Anyways:
    Here is the weak link in all these $60 or less dual mon stands with pole. Some moron engineer decided that a rivet (instead of a bolt/nut that can be tightened) would suffice for the portrait/landscape rotation axis (directly behind vesa mount).This rotation axis is absolutely necessary to keep monitors level because all arms sag eventually. The rivet wears and loosens after about 30 rotations with no way to tighten. Total garbage. This rivet that replaced tightening bolt, started appearing about 2-3 years ago. Unbelievably poor design.
    All of these arms shake if extended enough. If you use a desk, I would just use the monitor stand that came with mon. Particularly the 49's or ultra wides with 32×9 or 24×9 form factors.

  9. NB F80 has a new revised version, it's much better than this one and costs the same. It looks distinctly different too and has an updated design but depending on the vendor it can be a lottery which one you'll get.
