Has anyone tried this cue extension?

AZ'er Fast Lenny just had an identical thread on this very same cue extension around a month ago (give or take a week :smile
. He and others liked it, but a couple of posters thought it was a tad on the heavy side. Do a search for this thread and you can read more opinions about it.

That one is similar, but this one has a different handle, and telescopes to 17.5".
See the link in my first post (although they are out of stock at the moment).
Telescopic Extension
I have sold these. I carry one with me all the time. I don't consider it too heavy. I'll get a weight on it when I go home this noon. It's made of light aluminum, with a twist locking plastic sleeve to grab the cues butt, and a adjustable length which can be set at whatever length you need. I only have the one I use right now, but I'll call, and see if they are still available. They also had a shorter, non-adjustable one available.
I'll check them out, and re-post.

Update!
I called my supplier to see if the extensions are still available. They informed me that they would no longer be getting the standard length 12 " extensions. They had only 2 of those left, so I ordered both of them. They had a shipment coming in of the extendable version, so I ordered 5 of those. I took some pictures of the ones I have. I have been using the extendable one.
both types shown with 11 1/2" paper as size reference:

image of clamping end
The clamping end tightens as you rotate the end. It's flexible plastic, I've tried it on a range of butt diameters, and it fits well on all. As far as leaving marks on the cue, it hasn't on mine, but your experience may vary.
