Review on ChargrCity Exclusive Temporary SkyCaddie Platinum by Timothy Gonzalez

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Cheap, cumbersome and won't hold position

Installed on a Jeep Wrangler, with plenty of room around the rearview mirror. The screws protrude about an inch beyond the mirror, which is annoying but tolerable. What is counter-intuitive, however, is this mount's inability to actually hold the metal detector - the 2-in-3 part of the mount (the part that looks like the GoPro mount) just doesn't tighten enough and the detector sags instantly as languid as Austin Powers thinking of naked Margaret Thatcher on a cold day. (This is on the Uniden R7.) The metal tab that fits into the Uniden is also a bit small so the detector doesn't sit very well there. I'll see if this tongue works with for example a GoPro mount and/or some sort of RAM kit and if it can be made more secure, maybe with a layer of tape. But how to eat? Not recommended.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Some difficulties
