TotalMount Pro makes it easy to attach an Apple TV to the back of a television

I really like my Apple TV 4K and use it daily. However, when it was sitting on my TV stand, my two-year granddaughter thought it was a toy. Not good. Enter the $29.95 TotalMount Pro, which attaches the Apple set-top box to the back of your television.

It’s also handy for wall-mounted TV owners who have struggled with tunneling an HDMI cable from a television through a wall to an Apple TV.  Running an HDMI cable through a wall is too destructive and time-consuming. TotalMount Pro makes Apple TV installation simple by attaching the Apple TV to the back of the television. 

This installation method positions the Apple set-top box for easy access to the HDMI port on the back of the television. (A power cord is still necessary, but most wall-mounted televisions have a power outlet behind the television.)

The Apple TV includes a rechargeable remote control with motion sensing, a Touch surface for navigation, and Bluetooth (so the remote’s signal can pass through walls). TotalMount Pro also includes a remote holder that assists with recharging the remote control.
