I posted this before, but it was in minutes of expiring, so I hope to make it up now that it is back.

“The Kensington 4-Position Monitor Arm with SmartFit™ System features independent height and tilt adjustments, It saves desk space by mounting onto your desk, and swivels the screen away when it’s not in use. With the Smart-Fit system, … The arm can support the weight and size of 15” to 17”, up to 10kgs [actually 20lb].”

  • but ignore that. It works well with modern 22-24" wide monitors too. Even in portrait mode. I'm using one now.

VESA mount, and clamps to the back edge of your desk.

$19.95 + $9.95 post, discount for multiples. These usually cost more like $100.

    • ahilen on 24/06/2010 - 00:25

      i'm on the same boat

      • robhung on 24/06/2010 - 01:31

        Thinking of maybe purchasing the Asus MS246H to use this, what do you guys think?

  • cheapsk8 on 24/06/2010 - 00:10

    So is this mount a VESA 100 (100mm between screws), or dual (75 and 100)?

    Just trying to find out if it will fit an Acer AL2423W (24"). The standard terminology is all a bit sketchy…

    Also, does it rotate horizontally, or only swivel vertically?

    • freddy on 24/06/2010 - 00:42

      Yes, 100mm plate. It's also drilled for 75mm.
      It rotates, tilts and swivels behind the monitor, all by friction - no click-stops.
      as well as swings at the base, and 4 height positions. Arm length is fixed.

      I found some good info in freddy's first post:

      http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/26177

      Sounds like it will do the job nicely.

  • FirstNameLastName on 24/06/2010 - 00:21

    good deal.. get two for duel screen fun.
    I would but I use an old projector stand I got 10 years ago in the trading post.. it's perfect for my needs.

  • compound on 24/06/2010 - 00:22

    I think you can cheaper. Use staticice.

    • covert on 24/06/2010 - 09:37

      Link ?

  • [Deactivated] on 24/06/2010 - 00:37

    doesn't look like this suits the 23" LG LED backlit monitor at all

    • freddy on 24/06/2010 - 00:38

      Why not? No VESA mount?

      • [Deactivated] on 24/06/2010 - 00:42

        yep, no VESA mount based on what i've been reading, whereas the widescreen LG monitors are fine.
        Monitor arm is still useful to have, if you have a monitor that isn't height adjustable nevertheless.

        Correction: LG E2340V-PN does have VESA mount. but 200mm x 200mm which this arm probably doesn't support?

  • jmone on 24/06/2010 - 07:01

    Good - got a couple to add to the new Dell 24" also on OzBarg!

  • Jaxx on 24/06/2010 - 08:05

    says :The arm can support the weight and size of 15” to 17”

    so it can take bigger screen sizes??

    • anthony on 24/06/2010 - 16:22

      Size has nothing to do with weight.

      Look at the maximum weight it can support.

      A TV stand COTD had a while ago said it was good for TVB's up to 22" yet the maximum weight it could handle was good for a Sony 42" bravia!

  • Topher on 24/06/2010 - 08:07

    Sold out awww.

  • corbz on 24/06/2010 - 13:07

    I ordered one of these (before it sold out) and the vx1000 webcam (with a -$15 coupon).

    The total came to $42 shipped for both :).

  • fault on 24/06/2010 - 19:29

    holy crap that is cheap… I bought the Ergotron LX Dual Side-by-Side Arm for like $450 AUD a few months ago lol… http://www.ergotron.com/Products/tabid/65/PRDID/354/language… … but it is awesome and mounts my 2 x 24" !!!

  • robhung on 29/06/2010 - 13:36

    Received mine today although I'm having a bit of trouble setting it up. The clamp on the bottom makes the arm and monitor face left, and I can't seem to rotate the base so it faces forward (like the picture). Obviously it would work fine if I clamped it on the left side of my table but I'm wanting to adjust it so I can clamp on the far side of my desk.

    Any body know how?
