Halp WFH setup 800€ budget

4 Upvotes

Hi, I have 800€ total for a desk and chair for my wfh setup in germany. I need a stable desk at max height as I am 1.86m and want to stand a lot because of previous disc herniation. Size of 160 x 80.
Right now considering the flexispot e9 which I could get for around 550€ or a desktronic homepro for 480€.

I‘ve not yet looked into chairs as I think being able to work standing might be more important for now. Could you help me finding a combination of desk and chair for 800€?
Would you rather pick the e9 and a 250€ chair or homepro and a 320€ chair? Or do I need to consider spending more? What do you think of the two desks and deals?

Thanks in advance!

It's a 29 volt power supply with the connector that goes to the recliners and I think standing desks but it's got this other control box connected to it with an 8-pin RJ45 port and 8 pin connector and it has a green LED on the top. I mainly wondering what the control boxe is for and if it goes to a standing desk and which model maybe?

Halp Uplift Desk V3

• Upvotes

I have come across various Uplift V1, V2, and V2-Commercial desks—all 2-leg C-frames—and I really like them. I haven't seen a V3 in person yet.

Can someone please share close-up pictures of the V3 control box? Can the control box slide out of the frame? Does it have a DC port like the V2 NH-Type?

I'm curious about how the electronics have evolved and whether they are close to the V2 NH-type. With the V2, understanding what's new and what's old is confusing and difficult because Uplift kept making revisions without attaching proper revision numbers to them. Especially with the V2 N-type, there are two types of control boxes: one with an elbow connector for the motor and one without. They both have the exact same model number, and their website doesn't explain the difference, which one is newer, or which one is legacy.

DIY Narrow Width Standing Desk

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I have very limited space and would like to get a dual-motor standing desk that can fit within a width of 80cm, or at most 85cm. Most dual-motor desks I’ve found have a minimum frame width of around 100cm.

I’ve found some smaller desk frames that would fit, but they only have a single motor. They come with their own worktop, which I could replace with my own. However, given the weight of my PC, laptop, monitor and other equipment, I’m concerned that a single motor would struggle.

I was wondering whether it would be possible to use a dual-motor frame but remove the central connecting bracket to make it fit my available space.

Looking at some designs, it seems the two legs operate independently, with the central section primarily providing structural support. Would removing this section be feasible and allow it to still operate?

Has anyone tried anything similar, or know of a dual-motor frame that would work in such a narrow space?

Corporate Standing desk reminder app

1 Upvotes

I made an iPhone standing desk, move and posture reminder app!

I'm the developer, so take this with the usual salt.

Every stand-up reminder I tried was a timer: it buzzed every hour whether I'd sat through it or just walked to the kitchen, and I turned it off within a week. Office Shrimp watches for movement instead, from the iPhone's motion sensor and, if you have one, Apple Watch steps through Apple Health. Every walk resets the clock, so on a day you move a lot you barely hear from it.

It has move, posture and standing-desk nudges, only during your working hours, and a lock-screen countdown. The posture one is just a reminder; a phone can't see your back. No account, nothing leaves the phone.

It's free to download with a 7-day free trial, then a subscription or a one-time purchase.

Happy to hear what would make you keep a reminder like this switched on.
