Length: What is the length of the pole when fully retracted?

The South Bend web site lists the collapsed size of their 20-foot pole as 47 inches.

The shaft itself is about 24 inches if I remember correctly without going to measure. So shaft fully extended is 71" tall and 47~ retracted.

The poles are fully adjustable. The fixed length of each pole is about 3 feet.

Almost.Mirror fully extended flat/parallel to wall is 15.5" from the wall. Mirror fully retracted flat/parallel to wall is 3.25" from the wall. This equates to roughly 12.25 inches range of extend/retract motion.

approximatel 4 feet is the height where the second pole slides on, it is not necessary to be exact as the is a hydraulic cylinder that can adjust the final height of the rim to exact heights it simply cranks up or down to desired height

Yes, the pole probably is the length advertised but, like others have said it is not sturdy fully extended. I have used it fully extended several times and the joints start to fall apart too. That said the pole is much better at shorter heights, it then becomes much more rigid. Hope this helps!

I don't know the exact measurements of it. We bought the poles at Lowes. It is standard size for the antenae. It works great. It was a really good purchase.

I purchased the Ettore 43009 extension pole a few months ago. The minimum length is 44", and it extends to 107". One word of caution, though, it's easy to over-tighten the pole when extending it. Just a light twist is all that's necessary. Otherwise, you'll have to break out your Vise Grips to collapse the pole. (Make sure you slip some cloth over the teeth of your Vise Grips when you do. The plastic grips are soft and easy to mar.)

It extends very smoothly and easily to about 28". Pull somewhat harder and you get about 32" max extension. Getting it to retract when at full extension is a bit difficult as the arms are almost completely closed and they want to pivot instead of retract.

I purchased a Retractable that was 25' long. I believe, or maybe, it came in an 18' length as well.

Its about a foot. I used a different rod on mine that I had because I needed it at a different length.

I would say it is about 24 inches or 2 feet long when fully extended. Possibly a tiny bit longer, but not sure.

The tripod itself is about 20", fully retracted. But assembled with the telescope mount (w/o the telescope tube itself), it's about 27-28"

I don't know the length, however it was barely long enough once I took it apart and turned armature around,because it ran backwards

We hung it at ~ 9ft and fully retracted it is about ~5ft. It is steeper than we had hoped but holding up great.

About 1/2 inch. Sorry I don't have it available for a precise measurement. This is a good pole.

I've never had mine fully extended but I would estimate at least 30 feet, possibly longer.
