    The MX400 dual monitor arms are the best dual monitor arms I’ve found for the money. In this video we have a look at the monitor arms and install a pair of USB sockets into the base.
    You can buy the monitor arms here: amzn.to/36eFAiq
    The USB3.0 cables I used can be bought here: www.ebay.co.uk/itm/223986725157
    Thanks to Invision for their help in understanding what was required or the USB sockets and the install process!
    If you’d like me to cover more tech stuff or my desk setup let me know!

    I'm gonna be honest I've learned that I can attach USB on the base of the thing and being able to freely spin the monitor orientation after watching this, I'm glad you have showed it off. Makes me glad I didn't cheap out for another mount.

    Excellent video got it and it's very good quality.
    Very strong! Don't get a monitor too light for the monitor arm, the gas piston would be too strong. Even on the lowest setting l’m sure a light monitor would take off. for a 19,5" on the lowest setting it's just enough. I'm sure even with giant monitors you won't have issues, it's a tank.

    How low can you bring down the arm?
    My idea if I purchase this is to mount it on an over- head shelf just over my desk so the arms will be drawn downwards.
    Can tjis be achieved with this device?

    Great vid thanks. The usb extenders I bought where a little thinner than yours so sadly didn't sit flush in that case. I resorted to sticking them down with blu tack! No one will ever know...

    Great video. Am looking to get these, but my desk is quite flush too the wall (can make a small gap probably). The back part of the clamp looks quite thick, so I might have to use the drill through method. Do you think this method for these arms would be OK?

    • @DadDiaries
      @DadDiaries  Год назад +1

      It will depend on how far forward you have the monitors because if you have them at the back of the desk then the arms protrude back a bit, if you pull the monitors forward it won't be so much of a problem. The base is probably max a centimeter off the back of the desk...pulling the desk forward slightly will counter that aspect.

    When you hold the screen horizontal and tilt the screen left and right for a different angle, can I tighten the stiffness of it as one feels looser than the other but can’t see any instructions on how to do so or if it’s possible

    hello, I bought this product, it hasn't arrived yet. I want to consult you something. I will use it on a single monitor at all no second monitor.. I'm going to use the monitor quite low, but if I put it right in the middle of the table, I feel like I can't set the monitor low from your video. Where would you recommend mounting the vesa leg on the table?

      @@DadDiaries i mean from the back where you mount the ARM cause i have a 80 cm wide desk but i like to put the monitor relatively close to me app. 40 cm form the back edge of the desk where the ARM would be mounted

    • @DadDiaries
      @DadDiaries  Год назад +1

      My desk is 80cm deep as well and if I pull the monitor to me so the arm is straight at the height I set it (fairly high) the front of the monito is approx 55cm from the back of the desk. As you lower the monitor with the arm extends fully it comes forward a little more so the front of the screen sitting on the surface of the desk is 22cm from the front edge where you sit. Hope that makes sense 👍

    Can you cross the monitors ? For example your main is left, but you want to use the right one as main so you put it on left ?

      Sort of but not very neatly, they aren't designed to swap like that really.

    • @DadDiaries
      @DadDiaries  5 месяцев назад +1

      If you can't pull the monitor down on the arm to effectively sit it on the desk you'll need to slacken off the tension screws in the arm which are adjusted depending on the weight of your monitor. The manual that came with the arms will show you which way, it's done with a hex key / Allen key.

    • @DadDiaries
      @DadDiaries  2 года назад

      You'll only be able to mount on these arms if you have a standard VESA pattern mount on the back of the monitor (4 screw / bolt holes in a square pattern)

    • @WetaMantis
      @WetaMantis Год назад

      they make a holder with vesa mount on the back for non vesa screens. It will be ugly though.

      Bud... Get yourself an appropriate hex key and you can adjust the tension strength. Check the manual and it tells you if you don't have it any more let me know and I'll see if I can pull mine out of wherever it is.

      Check the weight of the monitors and how wide you would need the arms to be when the monitors are side by side with how wide the arm mounting points need to be. I wouldn't see a problem if they are under the arm weight limit and will physically sit side by side. Also contact invision customer service, they are very helpful
