I'm not talking about those music-store ones that fold down to 3 feet in length. I want something that will fold down to fit in a backpack. I have seen things like this for music stands and camera tripods, surely someone must make one for mics. A table stand will not do.

I am usually pretty good at googling but words like collapsible and folding just bring up the same 3 or 4 stands that are collapsible but not to the degree that I need. Besides I already own two of those. I would appreciate even some suggestions for other search words.

(I am flying off to the 3rd World with my laptop and a preamp and a mic for literally a day and a half of hit and run recording and I want to travel Light.)
