Maxess Mounting System

Est. $40–$120

The Maxess Mounting System gives switches and communication devices a cushioned, stable place to sit so they stay put while someone uses them. It starts with a switch tray in three sizes (small, medium, large). Optional double-sided angled mounts, at 55° and 85°, tilt a switch toward the user, and each mount comes with hook and loop fasteners for one switch so you can move it around easily. It works well in classrooms, therapy sessions, and at home, and the ability to try different switch positions makes it handy during assessments. No switches or communicators are included, so you'll need to bring your own.

REHAdapt Mounting Bundles

Est. $150–$600

These REHAdapt bundles pair a Light 3D arm and a mounting plate with QuickShift Levers, so you get a complete adjustable way to hold a device in place. The levers let you reposition the arm, which helps when the device needs to sit in a different spot for different people or tasks. It's a positioning system, not a device on its own, so you'll need something to mount, such as a communication device or tablet, and a surface or frame to attach it to. Getting the right height, angle, and reach for a person's body and movement is the hard part, and it's where a therapist's input pays off.

REHAdapt Mounting Arms

Est. $150–$600

REHAdapt Mounting Arms are adjustable arms that hold a device, switch, or similar item in a chosen position. They come in single, double, or triple versions, so the number of joints you can bend and set depends on the model you pick. QuickShift levers let you reposition the arm without starting over, which helps when the setup has to change between sitting, lying down, or different tasks. This is a mounting piece, not a complete solution. You'll need the device you want to hold, plus a compatible clamp or base to attach the arm to a wheelchair, bed, or table.

Universal Switch Mounting

Est. $80–$150

The Magic Arm holds a switch or other lightweight device in just the right spot, then locks every joint at once with a single lever. It comes with a Super Clamp that grips a wheelchair, a table edge, or a similar surface. The arm reaches out to 51 cm (20 inches) and carries up to 2 kg. It fits switches and accessories with a standard 3/8" or 1/4" camera mount thread. This is only the mount: the switch and the mounting plate are not included, so you'll need to add a separate plate, such as a Manfrotto triangular plate, before it can hold anything.

Flexzi 2 Switch Mount

Est. $30–$75

The Flexzi 2 is a bendable 30cm mount that holds a larger switch or a lightweight device in a spot the user can reach. Its dual-strand design is built for more support than a single-strand flexible arm, and it bends into many shapes and angles. It comes with a Super Clamp Base that attaches to a chair, tray, table, or wheelchair, so it can move between home, classroom, and clinic. It holds roughly 0.78 to 0.95kg depending on the angle, and it carries more when held upright, so check the weight of your switch or device first. An optional Extension Kit adds reach for harder mounting setups. It comes in black, green, or pink.

Universal Switch Mounting - Variable Friction Arm

Est. $60–$130

This adjustable arm holds a switch in the exact spot where someone can reach and press it reliably. A large knob loosens the arm so you can move it smoothly, then locks it in place; the arm reaches out to about 20 inches (51 cm) and holds up to 2 kg. It comes with a Super Clamp for attaching to a wheelchair or a table edge. The arm fits devices with a standard 3/8" or 1/4" camera thread, but you'll need to buy a separate mounting plate (such as a Manfrotto triangular plate) and your own switch, since neither is included.

Inclusive Table Top Suction Mount

Est. $40–$120

This mount holds a switch, tablet, or communication device in a chosen spot on a table or desk. Two lock-and-release suction cups grip smooth, non-porous surfaces, and a pivoting arm lets you angle the device where the user can reach it best. It suits temporary or portable setups, such as moving a device between a desk and a classroom table. You'll need a mounting plate to attach your device (the Manfrotto Triangular Mounting Plate is the compatible one), so plan to order it with the mount. It won't hold on rough or porous surfaces.

Grip Switch Mount

Est. $30–$90

The Grip Switch Mount straps a switch to the arm so it sits right by the hand or fingers. That keeps the switch in one steady spot, which helps someone with limited hand or finger movement reach it the same way every time. It has an adjustable arm brace for comfort and support, and the fit can be tuned to the person. It works with the small it-Switch, the small Smoothie Switch, and the iSwitch, and it can be ordered for the left arm. The switch itself is not included, and neither is the device the switch will control.

Inclusive Mounting for Universal Tablet Holder

Est. $120–$350

This mounting kit holds a tablet at a spot you choose, so the screen stays in easy reach on a table, desk, or wheelchair. The holder fits most tablets from 7 to 13 inches, with or without a case, and it leaves the ports and screen uncovered. A Super Clamp attaches it to the surface, and Quick Release joints let you reposition the arm. It comes in single, double, and triple tube versions, with more tubes giving more reach and ways to adjust. Pick the version based on how far the tablet needs to move from where it's clamped.

Walters 4x10 Monocular - Spectacle Mount

$256.95

This is a small 4x monocular, a one-eyed telescope, made to attach to a pair of eyeglasses so you can look at distant or near objects without holding anything. It has an 8.5 degree field of view and focuses from about 6.5 inches out to infinity. It weighs about an ounce and is under two inches long. Instead of an eye cup, it has two lock nuts for mounting. It suits someone with low vision who wants hands-free viewing and doesn't need more than 4x magnification. The clamp that attaches it to your glasses, a flip-up adapter, is a separate purchase.

Gumball or Head Switch on Easy Flex Mount

$115.95

This is a button switch that sits on a bendable arm, so you can bend the arm and put the switch right where someone can reach it. You choose the Gumball style or the Head style when you order. The arm clamps to a wheelchair, tray, tabletop, highchair, or stroller. It's about 20 inches long and weighs around a pound. A switch does nothing by itself: it has to plug into a switch-accessible device, toy, or communicator, and picking the best spot and style usually goes better with a therapist's input.

Pillow Switch on Easy Flex Mount

$125.95

This is a pillow switch attached to a flexible, clamp-on mount, so someone can activate a switch-controlled device by pressing a soft pillow. The mount clamps to a surface, and you bend the arm to put the pillow where the user can reach it most comfortably. It takes a light touch, around 35 to 40 grams of force, which suits someone who can't press a hard button. The arm is about 20 inches long and the whole set weighs about a pound. It's only the input piece. You'll need a switch-adaptable toy, communicator, or other device to plug it into.

VFA with Universal Tablet Holder

This mounting system holds a tablet at the angle you need, whether it is clamped to a table edge, a tray, or a wheelchair frame. The Variable Friction Arm moves smoothly and stays where you put it, even when positioned upside down. The holder fits most tablets from 7 to 13 inches, with or without a case, including iPads and Samsung Galaxy tablets. It grips the tablet at minimal contact points, so ports and the screen stay clear. The tablet is not included, and the maker notes it cannot guarantee the safety of your tablet or case, so check the fit and tightness before relying on it.

One

$490.00

The One is a mounting arm that holds a switch, a speech device, or a tablet in a spot where the user can reach it comfortably. A single adjustment point moves three joints at once, so you can fine-tune the position without loosening several knobs. Its clamp grips most flat table edges and round or square tubes, like a wheelchair or bed frame. Mounting plates are sold separately, so you'll need one that matches your device. The arm works with AbleNet Quick Ready plates, plates that attach with a 1/4"-20 threaded rod, and RehAdapt plates that use the Spigot Link System.

REHAdapt TableClamp OneHand Light

Est. $120–$280

The TableClamp OneHand Light clamps to the edge of a table and holds a tablet or other device at a position you can adjust. It tilts up to 90° vertically and turns a full 360° horizontally, and it holds devices from 0.7 to 3 kg (1.5 to 7 lbs). A two-lever quick release lets you attach or remove the device fast, and the small footprint keeps ports and screens clear. It fits REHAdapt's UDS mounting system, and VESA-mounted devices can use it too with a separately sold REHAdapt Mounting Plate.

Specs IC

$75.00

The Specs IC is a small, compact switch with a round pressing surface about 1 3/8 inches (3.5 cm) across. That makes it easy to mount close to a person or even wear. The cap can be swapped for any of five colors, so you can match a user's preference or make the switch easier to spot in a busy setting. It comes with two bases, a flush base that sits low and a strap base for other mounting options, plus a 24-inch strap. This is only the switch. It does nothing alone, so you'll need a device, interface, or communication tool for it to control.

Wall-Mounted Activity Center

$329.95

This wall-mounted panel packs several hands-on activities into one board: a vibrating plate, a wooden roller that triggers a music box and lights, a pull-ball that runs a fan, a large plate that turns on a bright light, and a bead chain curtain with an unbreakable plastic mirror. Each part gives a clear response when touched, so it works well for a child learning cause and effect, practicing grasp, or getting sensory input. It comes with mounting hardware and runs on 2 C batteries, which sit behind the mirror. You'll need to fasten it to a wall, and the music and colors can vary from what's pictured.

Walters Low Vision 8x20 Monocular with Case and Neck Strap

$219.95

This 8x20 monocular is a small handheld telescope that makes distant things look eight times closer, and it can also focus down to about 11 inches for near tasks. It weighs 2.5 ounces and is about 3 inches long, so it fits in a pocket or hangs from the included neck strap. You can hold it, or mount it in spectacles, a finger ring, a hand grip, a spectacle clamp, or on a stand or tripod. It has a 7-degree field of view, which is fairly narrow. Spectacle mounting needs separate lock rings, and the right power and mounting style depends on the person's vision and what they want to see.

Easy Flex Dual Ultimate Switch

$349.95

The Easy Flex Dual Ultimate Switch puts two Ultimate switches on one mount, so a person can activate two different devices from a single spot. Each switch sits at the end of a long flexible arm, about 25 inches, that you bend into position. A Super Clamp holds the whole unit to a wheelchair, table, or bedrail. This is a good fit for someone who needs two separate switch inputs, such as one for each of two devices, without setting up two mounts. It is only the switches and mount, so you'll need devices to plug them into.

Head Switch

$83.95

This head switch is a mountable switch that responds to very light pressure, so someone who can't press a switch with their hands can set it off with their head instead. It also works with pressure from a knee, elbow, or another body part. It comes with a heavy duty ball joint for positioning, and it attaches to the maker's switch mounting systems, which are sold separately. On its own it doesn't do anything: it has to be plugged into a switch-accessible device or toy, and getting the mount and placement right usually takes some trial and error.

Walters Low Vision 4.2x10 Monocular with 2 Lock Rings

$275.95

This 4.2x10 monocular is a small, one-ounce telescope that makes distant things look bigger, such as signs, boards, or faces across a room. It focuses from far away down to about 9 inches, so the same unit can also help with close tasks. It is about 2 inches long and 7/8 inch across, with an 8.5 degree field of view. The two included lock nuts let it be set into a spectacle mount, and it can also be used in finger rings, hand grips, or spectacle clamps. These mounts are sold separately. The right monocular depends on a person's vision and what they need to see, so it helps to try it before buying.

Walters 2.75x8 Monocular

$248.95

This small 2.75x monocular is built to mount on an existing pair of eyeglasses, so you can look at things in the distance or up close without holding anything in your hand. It has a 12.5 degree field of view and focuses from about 5 1/2 inches out to infinity. It weighs just 0.75 ounces and is about 1 1/2 inches long. It suits someone with low vision who wants hands-free use and needs only modest magnification. It has no eye cup and attaches through two lock nuts, so you need the separately sold flip-up clamp adapter to put it on glasses. That clamp is a catalog-only item.

Walters Low Vision 8x32 Monocular with Case and Neck Strap

$309.95

This 8x32 monocular is a small handheld telescope that magnifies distant things eight times, such as street signs, bus numbers, or a whiteboard across the room. It also focuses close, from far away down to about 26 inches, so one scope can handle both distance and nearby tasks. It weighs about 6.5 ounces and is 5.5 inches long, and it comes with a case and neck strap. You can hold it by hand or mount it on a stand or tripod for steadier viewing. The field of view is fairly narrow at 7.8 degrees, so it takes some practice to find and hold on a target.

Walters Low Vision 10x25 Monocular with Case and Neck Strap

$185.95

This monocular is a small handheld telescope that makes distant things look 10 times closer, such as street signs, a whiteboard, or a stage. It can also focus on things as near as 15 inches, so one device can cover both far and close viewing. It weighs 4 ounces and is about 4.5 inches long, so it fits in a pocket or hangs from the included neck strap. You can hold it by hand or mount it on a stand or tripod for steadier, longer viewing. The field of view is fairly narrow at 5.2 degrees, which is typical for this power, so it takes some practice to find and follow a target.
