I have one called a 'Q Up' it works fine, in being very sensitive, and not too exuberant when triggered.
This version has an oblong shape and can be a little more flexible in being able to be set up at an ideal positioning, that is not obstructed by the TT Chassis and Tonearm Base.
There is also a basic design as a method to enable a Height Adjustment.
Once in position it can be held in position by a Blu Tak material of similar.
I don't know if all TT's are compatible with a Tonearm Lift, especially a design that has a large base, but the use of one can be quite reassuring if a loss of attention is a possibility.
