By TeleStik - Jun 26, 2009 1:05:50 PM

TeleStik Portable Reachers are the lightest, smallest, most portable reachers in the world designed and developed with two very important objectives in mind: Producing the most portable lightweight pick-up tool/reacher. Producing a reacher that requires minimal hand, shoulder, and finger strength.

TeleStik® Portable Reachers are the lightest, smallest, most portable reachers in the world.

TeleStik® was designed and developed with two very important objectives in mind:

(1) Producing the most portable lightweight pick-up tool/reacher

(2) Producing a reacher that requires minimal hand, shoulder, and finger strength.

Less the 8 inches long, TeleStik® easily fits in a fanny pack, saddlebag or purse. And when you need that extra reach, TeleStik® extends from 8 inches to 34 inches or anywhere in between.

For the able-bodied, TeleStik® is the ultimate pick-up tool. Keep it in your kitchen drawer and bring it out when you need to reach the unreachable.

TeleStik® is ideal for persons with temporary disabilities (ie hip or knee replacements) and TeleStik® is the ultimate wheelchair or scooter accessory. In fact, TeleStik® is the first reacher high-level quadriplegics can truly operate.

Take TeleStik® wherever you go. It’s perfect for office, school or travel.

TeleStik® utilizes three pick-up mechanisms:

Adhesive – incredibly unique adhesive picks up objects up to one pound, yet is delicate enough to pick up a piece of paper.

Magnet – super strong magnet picks up metal objects up to one pound.

Hook – handy hooks are great for pushing elevator buttons, dragging objects toward you, picking up clothing etc.
