Magic arm w/ 360 rotation at both ends, attaches to wide opening super clamp, GoPro, phone mounts
This K&F Concept magic arm with super clamp is a very versatile design that enables use for a multitude of situations. There are no instructions included but none are needed if you are familiar with these types of clamps.
The clamp opens super wide, up to 60mm (2.36") with rubber tipped grabbers so this can be used on the edge of a desk with no fear of scratching. The clamp arms are curved so they can be wrapped around bike handles, poles, and tree trunks. There are many holes on the clamp for attaching the magic arm. You can choose one of the 4 holes on the sides of the two arms or the two holes that sit at the top (where the arms come together). If you have other arms that you want to mount to the clamp note that it has 6-1/4" threaded holes.
The magic arm has 360-degree rotating ball heads at each end that give you maximum flexibility in choosing the angles of the arm. You have to loosen the orange handle to rotate both heads and then tighten down the orange handle when you have both ends in position.
The ball head on one side has a unique feature I haven't seen in other clamps: a very nice locking tripod screw that makes it a bit easier to get your device mounted. And this kit includes two mounting options:
1) GoPro mount - standard one with screw included
2) phone clamping mount - you flip up the little arms that grab your phone and just pull to open it up; there is also a weird little flipper on the back that lets it angle away from the tripod screw, but I won't be using that feature.
You also get a small allen wrench with two O-rings. The allen wrench lets you get a super tight fit on arm when it is placed into the two holes at the top of the clamp. Put the magic arm into the hole and then tighten the small screw. I believe the O-rings are to be used to replace the rubber ridge ones on the rotating ball heads when they get worn down.
Max pay load for the clamp and magic arm is 5 kg (11 lbs.). This is a nicely designed magic arm and clamp at a super good price and I highly recommend it.
