It might be better to go with something nicer than those. $14 for cheap plastic crap is kind of absurd, plus they have pretty bad reviews. I got these, and they're only $5 more each.
Thanks for linking the Harbor Freight poles. They are half the price of the ones I've seen used elsewhere. I chose to get these clamps because they have better reviews and should be able to fit on smaller poles. With luck I'll be able to clamp to the silver top part of the bar hopefully making it sturdier and lower profile for transport.
Here's the set up I use and like it very much. I looked at the light stands too, but didn't want the feet on the stand protruding into my play space. They have worked great and have had no issue. You may be able to find shorter ones, but I have high ceilings and had to go with these.

You can get shorter ones from Harbor Freight for a lot cheaper. They just weren't long enough for my ceilings. The one from Amazon is much sturdier too.

I got one of each to give myself some flexibility, both have worked great so far.

Like others, I've had the best success about doorway-height. Maybe about 6-8ft looking downwards. I have a pair of flash stands from doing photography, but you could pick up a cheap set of those that are at least 6ft
I also have mini clamps that I attach to the top of the door or to the stairs balusters when I'm downstairs:
If you are really tight on space and cant use the flash stands, look into a pair of these, they are heavy-duty tension rods that go up to 12'.
These are nicer than the Grifti ones:

That's a good point.
I have shelfs where I want to mount my base stations. I'm thinking I could actually use [this]

P.S. I really need to take a minute to figure out how to properly link on Reddit :)
EDIT - Figured it out :)

pics would help!
i use these little guys for a lot of things, including mounting my base stations, and i've never had any problems with them holding their grip.
I bought something similar to those light stands, but didn't like them....they "cut" into your roomscale zone, and they can not be as sturdy as you really want them to be (the lighthouses shouldn't move even the slightest bit).
I kept them for when i take my vive somewhere else and use as a portable solution. After some research, I use these now and love them...

and for actually holding the lighthouse onto the pole...

those are totally metal, and worth the slight extra price compared to plastic ones (but you could probably save a little money with the plastic ones).
those poles are great and easy to move too!
hope it helps, and you made the right choice w/ vive, it's the superior HMD by far.
