Review on iBOLT 25mm to 17mm Composite Ball Adapter for Dual Ball Socket Mounting Arms - Compatible with Garmin GPS/iBOLT 17mm Brackets by Joe Fulce

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ball Mount works with TomTom GO520 (2nd Gen) Magnetic Mount

Requires a mount compatible with the TomTom GO520 base station mount. The original mount is suction based . My rig uses a small, solid RamMount handle with a 1" ball mount and a 1" extension. This accessory meets my needs. The cradle mount easily separates from the small ball mount. Mounting a slightly larger ball ( 17mm) on the mount required the use of a compression clamp to press it in. Be sure to leave the inner sleeve of the ball in place (this will ensure a snug fit) As it is a snug fit it is best to mount perpendicular to the mount and leave it there (or whatever angle you want it at).The snug fit prevents the GPS ge guess rocks or rocks (ideal solution). The positioning of the GPS device for the display can be done with the RamMount. I've used this on a motorcycle and haven't seen any problems with it coming loose/wiggling.

Pros
  • Often used as a converter with IBBZ-33921 or IBBZ-33791 and other standard 25mm/1" dual ball mounts/arms to all industry standard 17mm mounts used, including Garmin GPS and iBOLT smartphone holders. For use with Bizmount series mounts or other 1"/25mm/B mounts compatible with standard industry standards.
Cons
  • No automatic
