ABSTRACT:
A stand for holding an electronic remote control unit has a horizontal bottom surface, a contiguous vertical end surface extending upwardly from one end of the bottom surface, and a contiguous rectangular top surface extending outwardly from the upper end of the vertical surface spaced directly above the horizontal bottom surface for releasably supporting an electronic remote control unit thereon. An extendible coiled tether cord is secured at one end to the stand and its free end is connected to the remote control unit whereby the remote control unit may be removed from a position supported on the stand but is prevented from complete separation from the stand. Fabric hook and loop fasteners are provided on the free end of the tether and top surface of the stand. In a preferred embodiment, the stand is provided with suction cups to anchor the stand on the flat surface which facilitate disengagement of the hook and loop fasteners and allows the remote control unit to be easily removed from the stand with one hand. Since the remote control unit is tethered to the stand it cannot be completely separated therefrom and will not become lost or misplaced, and because the stand can be anchored by suction cups, the likelihood of the entire stand being removed from the location in which the remote control unit is used is reduced.
