Ceiling mount clip a bit small

By Mike
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2019-11-27

I love this product except for the scissor clip mount. In my opinion, it's small and a little flimsy. I replaced it with a standard scissor clip and I sleep much better at night. :)

NOT 5', ONLY 3 SECTIONS!

Product pictures and description are incorrect. The total length is 49", and there are only 3 sections. Smith-Victor shows the 4 section picture on their site as well, and the part numbers match. Smith-Victor must have changed the product without updating the P/N. Seems like a good product other than that though. Also note that this is for a DROP CEILING FRAME. So if you need to mount it to a normal ceiling you will need another bracket.

question

This mount comes with 2 attachments. One is obviously the scissor mount for use with a drop ceiling, but what is the other accessory for? Here's a photo - it's the item on the left.http://creativeillusions.biz/mount.jpg
Asked by: Steven B.
From the manufacturer I checked into this and was told that there is a loop on the safety cable that goes over the scissor mount stud. The safety cable is then secured to the stud by the item on the left.

Asked by: Fernando V.
While the above item is not designed for use with cameras, you may purchase the Novatron Adapter - 3/8 Female to 1/4-20 Male, B&H # NOA38.2520, the Oben 3/8 -16 to 1/4 -20 Reducer Bushing, B&H # OB1039, and the Barska AF12544 Aluminum Ball Head, B&H # BABJTH, for your usage needs to connect a camera to this item.

question

Do you think it could mount a Logitech webcam? (C920 to be exact)
Asked by: Colleen I.
The Smith-Victor Ceiling Mount with 5.0' Telescoping Extension states it includes a 3/8 stud, while the Logitech C920 HD Pro Webcam indicates it has a standard female 1/4 -20 tripod thread. The Novatron Adapter - 3/8 Female to 1/4-20 Male, B&H # NOA38.2520, would be the required adapter to connect the Logitech C920 HD Pro Webcam to the Smith-Victor Ceiling Mount.

question

Can you please tell me the minimum length for the pole, as well as what accessories i need to mount it or does it come with a clamp as stated?
Asked by: Alaynna B.
It is easy to mount. If you take off the X-shape foot you have a 1/4inch thread that you can use to anchor. I purchased a T-Type Wall / Ceiling Mount Adapter that has a screw and it fits perfectly. I used anchors to fasten the mount to the ceiling and I have a fixed location. I also added a closet rail and made a wooden roller with a 1/4 Inch screw to hold the ceiling mount and I use it as a moving support (from the ceiling) for my forward lights. It is GREAT!
