Doesn't last forever.

Holder/Charger I've had it for 8 months now. At first I was okay with it, but now I'm totally disappointed. I just couldn't take it. At first it stuck to the torpedo like it was welded on, but over time it fell off more and more frequently. It's important to properly clean the underside of the suction cup to ensure a good fit, but the time between each reinstallation cycle after it has been dropped is becoming shorter and shorter. The cable then failed for several weeks. Finally, the right pressure arm broke yesterday, so the device is now unusable. In terms of design, the head has too little momentum due to the shape of the lever at the end of the ball. To fix this I rotated the arm at the base. Another design flaw was revealed. The arm has knurling that connects to one side of the base. It should have the same knurling on both sides so that the hand is fixed when turned over. Without it, I have to over-tighten the clamp screw to keep my arm from sagging. I also had issues with charging ability, but that might be due to my wireless charging case, not this device, so I won. In short, some design flaws that are annoying but overall poor quality and durability. I don't recommend it, especially if you have to remove it from the car frequently.

Pros
  • Great Price
Cons
  • Vulgarity
