Review on ๐Ÿ“ฑ Conveniently Secure Your Smartphone with the Belkin F8J168bt Car Cup Holder Mount in Black by Don Devine

Revainrating 3 out of 5

A simple solution to salvaging a $30 holder that breaks.

Like the others, this phone holder was great. Better than any other I've tried. Until it broke in the heat of my truck. i wasn't happy I thought it was an accident so I returned it and got another one. Unfortunately it also broke. I tried gluing it and it worked for a day. I looked for another better holder but they were all worse. I finally found a fix that got my broken one working! The downside is that the plastic on the bottom is too flimsy. And the screw below is too short. So I bought a large washer and an M4 .7 T nut. I flattened the sides and added the bottom so the power comes from below and not from a thin inner plastic piece. So spend $2 at Home Depot and have your device repaired. Even if it's not broken, add them now so you don't feel my pain. Too bad Belkin didn't fix this problem. The rest of the holder is too good to throw away for the money you paid for it.
