• Sales reps,insurance adjustors, tax assessors, home health aides,I.T. consultants, facility managers,specialty consultants, engineers, and architects are just a few examples.

WHY YOU SHOULD BUY IT:

• The Model 1500 Rolling Case Desk + Tripod provides several unique solutions that any mobile professional, telecommuter or business will appreciate. They include:
  1. It Is Work Ready:Because work stops can be frequent and brief high value is placed on quick set-up, take down and move-on especially of any equipment needed to complete the job
     
     the Model 1500 can be left clamped onto the handle of your rolling case, so it’s already set up and ready to use. All you have to do is roll it from your car or office to your first work location lift the hinged desk top up and insert the front leg.Do the reverse when its time to move on.
     
     Instead of carrying your desk around, you roll it around, on the wheeled laptop case or rolling luggage you already have.
     
      
  2. More flexibility: You can easily convert your rolling case desk into a free standing tripod desk and back again, anytime you want. slip the 2 extra adjustable rear legs, that come with the desk, into the rear quick-connect sockets.
     
     There are many times when a rolling case desk is the most convenient to use and times when it just gets in the way or isn’t needed. It’s good to know your Model 1500 Portable Laptop Desk converts quickly and easily to either setup.
     
     When your work schedule or environment demand flexibility in your portable workspace, you are not stuck with just 1 solution anymore.

HOW IT WORKS:

• Clamped to a Rolling Case Handle

  • The Model 1500 Desk is designed to securely clamp onto the handles of any wheeled case, rolling luggage, cart or folding crate.
     
  • Its single adjustable front leg slips into the desk’s quick-connect front socket. That sets it up for level, stable use at either a sitting or standing height its your choice.
     
  • The Desk can clamp onto handles up to 10 inches in width, that have parallel tube or solid handle designs.
     
  • Your Model 1500 Desk can also be clamped on either side of your rolling case handle, facing the front or the rear. In either case, there are important considerations before you tilt it to roll to a new location.
     

• Desk Facing the Rear

  • If the Desk faces the rear of the case, before the case can be rolled, the single quick-disconnect front leg must be collapsed or removed and stowed, usually in the tote bag with the 2 extra legs used for the tripod setup.
     
  • After removing the front leg, a hinge along the Desk’s rear permits the entire desktop to drop down flat against the handle completely out of the way. This makes it much easier to maneuver your rolling case plus desk through crowded spaces and transport it in small vehicles.
     
  • When your Model 1500 Desk faces the rear, you also have the advantage of more knee and leg space under the desktop, since the case is not in the way.
     

• Desk Facing the Front

  • When clamped on handles facing the front of rolling cases, the front leg does not need to be removed prior to tilting and rolling. The desk just rides along resting against the front of the case.
     
  • When facing the front, your knee and leg space under the desk will be reduced, since the case will be directly underneath.

THE TRIPOD ADVANTAGE:

• Sometimes a free-standing tripod desk with 3 adjustable legs, is needed more than a mobile desk on a wheeled case.
• Because mobile workers, professionals and executives often require the flexibility of 2 different kinds of desk, the Model 1500 is designed to quickly convert into a strong, stable tripod stand for your laptop work.
• All you need to do is slip on 2 extra legs (that come with the Model 1500) into the 2 rear quick-connect sockets.
• The following describes just a few situations when a tripod desk is needed more than a mobile, rolling case desk. You will be able to think of many more examples:
  1. During team project meetings in small rooms around overcrowded tables, rolling cases often just get in the way. A good solution is to park your case over in a corner and use your tripod desk setup closer in, like an extension of the meeting table.
  2. In many healthcare settings, including at work, home hospice, clinics and hospitals, medical equipment and/or laptops, often cannot be used close enough to patients, because general conditions are already crowded and desks on rolling bases are too bulky or too short. Switching to a tripod setup can help medical personnel to use diagnostic or data entry devices such as ultrasound units and laptops in closer proximity with better results.
  3. The Model 1500 Desk clamped to a rolling case supports an upright seated posture very well, but lacks the flexibility to support more relaxed postures. Like sitting way back in a soft, deep, low sofa or easy chair for example. The Model 1500 Tripod setup with its 3 independently adjustable legs can always be altered to support laptop work in resting and work postures.
  4. TV and motion picture script writers, construction professionals and the military, among others, that use laptops outdoors on- location and on uneven ground, don’t need “tippy” desks that are never level. The Model 1500 Tripod setup with its 3 individually adjustable legs always allow your desk to remain level and stable, no matter how uneven the ground or floor.
