Any alternative to the Joby Telepod Pro?

Looking for something like the Telepod Pro - light, compact, can be used as selfie stick or table tripod, but at a slightly lower price point.
About half the price of the Joby. I've got multiple Ulanzi phone accessories, none have ever disappointed me.
My normal solution is both heavier and more expensive: I have a Benro 4 or 5 section monopod that has a fold out tripod base, is strong enough (barely) to serve as a hiking stick, and I have a Ulanzi phone mount on top. It's,tall enough to get to eye level and useful to support even a small EVIL or DSLR.

The term "mirrorless" is totally obsolete. It's time we call out EVIL for what it is. (Or, if you can't handle "Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens" then Frenchify it and call it "LIVE" for "Lens Interchangeable, Viewfinder Electronic" or "Viseur électronique").

The a7R V is the fifth iteration of Sony's high-end, high-res full-frame mirrorless camera. The new 60MP Mark IV, gains advanced AF, focus stacking and a new rear screen arrangement. We think it excels at stills.
