Anyone use this as a travel monitor? Does the stand nub (w/o the base) fold flat-ish? Also what bags were you able to or not able to fit into?

It doesn't stand w/o the base. I wouldn't recommend it as a portable. The 16 inch may suit you better

i do use it. it barely fits some of the carry-on suitcases but is sometimes too long. it fits my carry-on backpack perfectly. the nib folds nicely. be careful with the cable connection - it may become loose.

It is lite but fairly large to use as a travel monitor. You could fit it in a standard carry-on bag if removing the stand but it wouldn't leave a lot of room for much else. If you check a suitcase it would fit much better but again you would want to remove the stand and pack it also.

It folds "flatish". The stand comes off with a thumb screw and much of the rest clicks off. There is a nub that folds pretty flat. My daughter sewed me a custom bag from padded cotton. She also sewed bags for my Apple keyboard and trackpad. As such the whole kit would fit in a suitcase, but I mainly use it to put it in the car to take to work.

I just received mine monitor today. The cover is a foam-type black sleeve. Definitely more than just a dust sleeve. It's not a hard case, but it should be plenty to keep the screen from getting scratched in a carry on. It should also be ok in a suitcase if it's tucked between clothes. The cover isn't heavy-duty, but it's better than I expected and it's a good start until I find something else (if ever).

Michael, I have purchased this bag as my third bag to accommodate my 17" laptop. The first two I ordered were not adequate at all; however, I kept this one. If you stand it on end, it has a felt pad on the inside bottom. On the outside bottom, it has ribbed plastic to assist with this bag not touching the surface. I found the bag to be secure for my laptop and have traveled with it. It has space on the outside portion to hold electrical items, etc. The shoulder strap is what came in handy for me and with the extra padding on the bottom and security straps inside, I decided to keep it. I hope this helps your decision. Michael, I have purchased this bag as my third bag to accommodate my 17" laptop. The first two I ordered were not adequate at all; however, I kept this one.

I put a 20-lb bag and a 23" monitor on the stand and it was fine at all levels. I don't believe you will have any problems.

I'm not in the location where I keep the unit, so I can't measure or weigh it , but I'll say that for me it surely is portable for travel by plane. It's about 10" x 10" x 4", and isn't heavy (its physical dimensions and weight must be shown in the product specifications) and does have a somewhat flimsy carrying case as part of its product package. If you're a person that finds anything heavier than an ultra-thin laptop "heavy", then it's not portable. But if you understand that fans, focusing motors and high amperage lights do take up space and have some weight, then by all means it is.

Hi JakBat. I bought mine to come back home from Texas after Christmas this year. I have to carry my laptop for work while I am gone. It is the perfect size for Delta Airlines, which I am flying - make sure to check Airline specs - they are all different. It is very lightweight, has lots of compartments for storage of your cables and other items. The pull-out, airport friendly laptop bag just fits my Dell 17" screen computer. I am using it to only bring back one change of clothes in case of an overnight delay, but it could easily fit more. I have not flown with it yet, but I have used it twice now just for weekend travels and it works great. It has a place for everything. It rolls smoothly and if not too over packed (which airlines have a limit - I believe Delta is 40lbs) it should be very easy to fit overhead. Hope this helps.

I tried it with a Dell B120 15". You must insert the laptop with the left or right side down. The top flap will then fold down over the upper side and almost reach the pannier sides (almost a complete closure). The laptop will be held securely but probably should be in plastic because there will be a small gap where rain could enter.

I don't think so. It is attached like a latch and pin to adjust up and down, no side to side. Plus it folds over in a weird way I assume for packaging purposes. But it's a great monitor!

It depends on how long your bag is. This is an amazing stand i.e. light, strong, great case, etc.; but it is long when folded up. Check the length with your luggage, and if it fits, you will be happy with this stand. Another great feature is that it extends withoutcoming apart so if you stand for a solo, you just pull up and its set.

Yes, it folds flat. Only has one viewing angle, stitching crooked and flimsy. There are better ones out there that have a swivel and grooves for more angles. Only has one viewing angle, stitching crooked and flimsy.

I purchased a 120 inch portable screen for 200 bucks! It folds up into a travel case that is about 3ft. long and weighs about 30 lbs. I love it! Bought it here on Amazon as well. It does work fairly well on a wall or a sheet. But the screen is Much better! Well worth the money!

Hmm... Yes? It is not heavy. But it is 24 inches, and it doesn't have any sort of handles or anything. With my laptop, I leave the monitor at home, and just take the laptop with me. You COULD bring this monitor, but it seems like carrying a monitor (ANY monitor) around would be hazardous.

It is foldable/small and comes with a carrying case for travel. I don't recall it coming with travel adapters/converter for use overseas.

I recently took this with me to Mexico. It folds flat, but is still fairly long. I was able to fit it in my roller carry on no problem. It was close length wise, but didn't take up any room bulk wise

You can see from the photo, that the controller slot will only fit the controller, and the monitor goes in its own dedicated slot. Taking off the monitor is a compromise you have to make. Unless you are packing for a long trip, keeping the monitor attached and carrying the controller/monitor in a separate bag isn't so terrible.

Yes you can mount this monitor. The owners of this product failed to look at the bottom of monitor which folds up behind it. The mounting holes are on the base so you would fold it behind the monitor then mount it. Problem solved :)
