Can you tighten the thumb stud?

Yes, you can tighten (or remove) the thumb disk if you want. It's attached with a small Phillips head screw. You'll need a jeweler's screwdriver to fit.

They have an adjusting screw but the factory setting works well. Nicely,with correct placement of hands you can tilt the TV for better viewing. Yes, they have multiple openings.so you can hit a stud. I also used zippit toggles for even more support. I will be buying 3 more soon.

Yes, you can loosen it. I had the opposite issue. Clamp was too loose and wouldn't hold. So, in had to tighten it more.

Yes you can... Didnt figure it out but eventually saw the adjuster nut next to where you insert the bit

Rotate the arm 1/4 turn and reinstall the thumb screw. Refer to instruction sheet if that does not make since.Thank you!

You can, but the resisitance is extremely small. With enough reps of the low stress you should get your thumb strength back

There is a piece that you push with your thumb. It has a safety as well so you can't close on your thumb. Very easily used with one hand, I do it several times everyday.

There nuts under some caps where it hinges. Tighten those , you should be able to tighten it to the point where it is hard to move.

It does not come with a tool to tighten. However, certain types of screwdrivers can tighten it no problem.

Yes there are thumb studs on both sides but it is not assisted opening. It's manual.

Actually, I'm not sure a regular nut would work so well. I believe the thumb-turn nut here has sort of a conical shape where it tightens against the bracket. A regular nut would likely dig into the plastic, if you could even get it tightened at all.With it being a thumb turn nut, you could fairly easily remove the whole light and bracket together. It goes on and comes off without tools. But then you'd have to re-aim your light every time.

Hey there,Yes, I can. I usually use my thumb to swivel the top open or hold it against something & use my other hand to swivel it open. Hope this helps.

No. I would love it if there was a way to do this, but the design does not lend itself to being able to have anything else attached as the thumb screw lever prevents the attachment of any other apparatus.

Mine is very difficult to tighten, but I used slip joint pliers and was able to tighten it about 2/3 of the way in which seems to be more than sufficient.

Might have to use a longer allen wrench. Then the one that come with it. I grabbed mine with a pair of pliers. I have a bad wrist tho.

I'm not sure if this is what you're asking, but I've found that it's easier to quickly loosen/tighten the thumbscrews if you turn the thing upside down (so the screws are at the top), or if they're on the bottom, hold the whole unit up so the screws have more room to move up/down.
