Review on GoPro Official Suction Cup Mount: Ultimate Secure Mounting Solution for High-Quality Action Footage by Andres Mayes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good product! best among camera mounts and clips

i don't know why i'm buying gopro suction cup only now but this is my first one. At first glance, the diameter of the suction cup is much wider, around 3 inches, while my usual mounts are 2 inches. Those are all my rough guesses. The reason I bought it was to use with my slightly heavier aluminum gopro housings. I wanted something with a larger diameter but didn't want to use my 6" suction cup mounts. Either way, this thing works surprisingly well! I once forgot to attach it to a car going from Santa Rosa to San Francisco! To say the least, I was concerned, but he held on! FYI: I've read a lot about people having gopro problems -Suction cup or something had similar. Brackets become loose or lose suction power. I've made countless YouTube videos of me installing my gopros on all my vehicles, usually 2-3 independently installed gopros. So far I only had one suction cup that lost its suction power. My secret is making sure the surface is smooth and clean! I always wash the surface with water. Just pour some water on the spot and brush it off with your hand. Watch out for watches or jewelry. I make sure to keep the area slightly damp. not wet, but j It is enough to wet the suction cup when applying. If it slips I will rub the area a little more but not dry it completely. I've had great success with this method and it has worked to at least 85 mph! (Texas has an 85 mph speed limit).

Pros
  • camera mounts and clips
Cons
  • ugly packaging
