Three charts, no alt-tab
I run three charts, a news feed and Slack simultaneously now. The thing I did not expect is how much less tired I am at 6pm — the tab switching was costing more than I realised.

Compatibility
If your laptop has USB-C, it almost certainly works.
Triad needs USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode — standard on nearly every laptop sold since 2018. The clamp adjusts to lids between 13 and 17 inches and up to 0.7 inches thick.

Lives in my laptop sleeve
I was sceptical about the weight and the clamp. Both are non-issues. It folds flat enough that I genuinely forget it is in the bag until I open it on a client site.

The clamp is the whole product
I had a cheaper extender that slid off mid-standup twice. This one has not moved once in eight weeks. Docked a star only because the case is sold separately.

Six weeks of hotels
I did not fight anyone for the desk with the monitor for six weeks straight. Colour on the standard panels is fine for Figma; if you grade video, get the 4K.

Questions
The things people ask before buying.
Still unsure? Send us your laptop model from the contact form and we will confirm before you order.
Will it work with my laptop?
If your laptop has USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode — which covers nearly everything sold since 2018 — yes. The clamp fits 13 to 17 inch lids up to 0.7 inches thick. The compatibility table above lists the common exceptions.
Do I have to install anything?
No. There is no driver, no companion app and no firmware to update. Plug the single USB-C cable in and the panels appear as two ordinary displays in your system settings.
How much battery does it use?
Each panel draws about 4.2W, so a three-screen setup costs most laptops roughly 60 to 90 minutes of runtime. Everything runs off the same cable — there is no second charger to carry.
What does it weigh, folded?
2.2 lb (1.0 kg) for the 14 inch model, and 1.1 inches thick when closed. That is roughly the weight of a hardback book, and it slips into the laptop sleeve of most backpacks.
Can I use only one extra screen?
Yes. Fold the second panel behind the laptop and it stays out of the way. Both panels also rotate independently, so you can run one portrait for documents and one landscape for video calls.
Does it work on a plane or train?
That is the main reason people buy it. Fold one panel out on a tray table and keep the other closed — you still get a second screen without needing elbow room for both.
What if I don't like it?
Use it for up to 60 days. If it does not earn its place in your bag, request a return and we send you a prepaid label — full refund, no restocking fee.
What does the warranty cover?
Two years on the panels, hinge, frame and cable. Where a part can be replaced we ship the part with a guide rather than asking you to return the whole unit.
