[Shop-talk] Phone Mount in Car

[Neil Sherry]

I use one in each car that mounts on air vent. I bent the metal part so the
angle was better to avoid damage. Had no problems - were a few pounds on
ebay - like this:

So it has feet to stabilise and reduce load on airvent, and magnet with
self-adhesive steel disc for back of phone. My old phone had a removable
back, I was able to put the steel disc inside back cover.

The wife wants a mount for her phone in the car and I am very opposed to the
air vent mounts because the louvers get damaged and I haven't seen good
stability from those.  Next she comes up with a mount that inserts into the
CD slot!?!  I have similar concerns but she says they are well reviewed -
anyone on the list have experience with this?

 

I am familiar with ram mounts via suction cup and have been pleased with
them but mounting on the glass can make for a reach.
