Car mount

[Ninja_NZ]

Well I bought this one (http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoser...68112_full.jpg) and have had it for 2 days and so far it's going OK:-

Here's 2 pic's of it. It also came with an attachment to attach it to the vents, but I have yet to try it out.

Here's the pic of the solution for the bikers who use te stand:



Works even better than the suction-pad on the tank

The gooseneck vibrates a LOT during bumps i think.

Or isn't that true ?

Ninja i like that solution, apart from the gooseneck !

I've made a raincover for it, but I need to think of a more practical solution, maybe some sort of plastic cover, I'm still brainstorming on it.

Hey whats the name of that one and where did you get it? I'd like one that had both suctioned and air vent mounts.

Well, I went with the Arkon VG935. I got for about $17 though the amazon market place.

You can get it there for about $20 new.

What I like about this one is that it has a huge range of motion, as well as the fact that the rigid locking arms mean the PSP doesnt rattle around like the fexible arm ones.

Here's a few pics


Here's a shot of it in my car


An example of its range of motion


There's my old crappy one on the left, and the Arkon on the right. Notice how much bigger the Arkon one is. It also holds the PSP quite firmly.


And here is the mount fully extened hanging off one of my records. As you can see, it is more than capable of holding the PSP as full length.

Well, I hope this helps some of you make a decision. I know I'm never using a cobra stand again, and for the past 3 weeks, the Arkon stand had more than satisfied me, especially since it costs just a few bucks more that the other stands.

Oh and Ninja, be very careful with the stand that you bought, because except for the head part, it looks exactly like my old one. Make sure you never try to bend the tube near the head or the base, thats where they break really easilly. And also, never leave the stand mounted on your windsheild when you're not using it. If you leave it in the sun, the heat will warp the plastic base, conforming it to the curve of the windsheild. Once that pastic base is warped, it wont keep a vacuum in the suction cup, rendering it useless.
