It stays in the L position, very rigid, and very sturdy. Weighs about 12 pounds with everything, including the laptop and 15-foot heavy gauge extension cable. I've made 10 of these for folks throughout the US, but the cost of shipping is insane, so I recommend that most folks make it themselves and save the shipping cost, which is nearly $50.

Good luck,
