Gumball or Head Switch on Easy Flex Mount

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026

This is a small tactile switch (available in Gumball or Head Switch style) pre-mounted on a flexible gooseneck arm with a clamp base, so you get the switch and mounting solution together in one package. It's designed for someone who needs a reliable activation point they can reach with minimal movement — a hand, head, chin, or other body part — to operate adapted toys, AAC devices, computers, or environmental controls via a 3.5mm switch jack. The flexible arm lets caregivers or therapists bend and hold the switch in exactly the right position, and the clamp attaches to wheelchair trays, strollers, tabletops, or highchairs. This is a piece of a larger system — the switch signals whatever compatible switch-accessible device you connect it to, so you'll need a separate device with a switch input port. The Gumball and Head Switch styles differ in activation area and required force, so getting professional guidance on which style suits a specific user's motor abilities is worth the effort before purchasing.

What Setup Looks Like

• Out of the box
  
  1. Clamp the mount to a wheelchair tray, tabletop, or stroller rail.
  2. Bend the flexible arm to position the switch within the user's reach.
  3. Plug the 3.5mm switch cable into the target device's switch jack — activation is ready immediately.
• With professional help
  
  1. An occupational therapist (OT) or ATP assesses the user's available motor access point (head, hand, arm, etc.) and selects the appropriate switch style (Gumball vs. Head Switch) and optimal placement.
  2. The professional fine-tunes switch position and angle during a hands-on trial to maximize reliable activation and minimize fatigue — typically 1-2 sessions.
