    "Grams and millimetres, converted from the maker's own units at 453.59237 g per pound and 25.4 mm per inch; compare in these units and round only to display.",
    "A missing minimum load is unknown, not zero: an arm with no stated minimum may not hold a light mic in place.",
    "null means the maker doesn't state it. Where the maker's own figures disagree, maximumG or reachMm is null and the arm's text gives both.",
    "A mic weight counts toward an arm only as mounted: add the shock mount or clip you use; a weight that includes a stand is not used."
