      It's great to hear that you've pre-ordered the Elgato Prompter! I'm sure it will be a valuable addition to your content creation setup, especially given your focus on video production and streaming tech. Once you start using it in December, it would be interesting to see how it integrates into your workflow and possibly enhances your video quality and scripting process. Keep your audience updated with your experiences and tips once you get hands-on with it. Happy creating! 🎥🌟🎮

    I purchased a 16" Teleprompter all metal for 140.00 with the ability to accept monitors of up to 16" by 10.2" . I also bought a 15.6" monitor with 1000 nits capabilities and the ability to flip the image on Vertical, Horizontal, and Vertical + horizontal axis all built into the monitor. No need to go through an HDMI Flip Box or Software. I wanted to use the Teleprompter as a normal working monitor when not Live Streaming etc... Also normal monitors produce 400 to 700 nits and appear a bit dull after hitting the two-way mirror... with 1000 nits the image appears nice bright and sharp ... cheers amigos !!!

    I'm late to the party for this. I just found out about it a couple days ago. I have one of the old ones that you have you use with a phone or tablet, but it is huge and heavy and clunky; and after the first time it tipped over and sent my camera tumbling to the floor I vowed 'never again'. This looks more promising, much lighter, and much better designed than the old metal ones. But it is already out of stock everywhere.

      Half of the other answer is convenience and testings for future videos. I have over 5 mics. Shure sm7b, sennheiser mkh 416, wave dx, and handful of other lapel mics. I’m always doing something different.
