Clip on! Clip off! The Cliphanger!

June 17th, 2008 by Mark R in Coolest Mobile News, Mobile Phones

Okay, so I wasn’t able to rip-off that old jingle very well. Of course, everyone has heard of the Clapper, but the Cliphanger is just as practical. The Cliphanger is a device that is designed to stick to any mobile device, so you can hang it up just about anywhere.

The design of the Cliphanger is quite unique and practical. On the back of the circular area where the logo appears is some strong adhesive designed to stick to any mobile device such as a cell phone, MP3 player, or camera.

The paperclip-like area has enough space to allow for a camera lens. This clip area can separate in a convenient place so it can be hung on something like a belt loop. The Cliphanger kit even comes with an autohook that can also stick onto a dashboard, and is perfect for hanging your Cliphangered mobile device.

I had a chance to talk to a representative of Cliphanger, and I was amazed at the story behind it. Due to its grassroots campaign, the Cliphanger has sold more than three million units, and that is outside of Wal-Mart and Best Buy.

You should be able to get the Cliphanger off the official site for about $12.95, in all kinds of colors.

Honestly, this sounds a bit risky too me. I wouldn’t want to risk my camera to fall down and break because the adhesive wasn’t strong enough… And how do you get it off your phone/camera/mp3 player after you’re sick of it?

But hey, good for them, three million units really is impressive.

[...] There are several ways to attach these Gorillapods to the mobile devices. Most cameras have a threaded hole that the Gorillapod can use its slim-line clip to hold onto by screwing it in. The user can also use a suction cup clip that attaches to any flat surface with a vacuum seal with the flip of a switch. There is also the option of using a high-bond adhesive clip to stick it to your mobile device like the Cliphanger. [...]
