Can extension tubes be added to this ground plamp ...

Can extension tubes be added to this ground plamp to raise the height?
Asked by: Harold
Not sure when this product was added, must have been after Rob's answer. It can be extended now at the expense of some stability like Jeffery said. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1159253-REG/wimberley_pp_320_the_plamp_extension_tube.html/overview
