Adamjf82 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 I'm heading on a ride out to squires for easter egg run next week but never been there before so will need the sat nav on my phone.Anyone recommend a waterproof and secure phone holder that can fit a Samsung galaxy s7? Quote

I like the look of that holder so think I'll order one anyway since its a decent price then I've got one if I do need sat nav Quote
Stu Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 this is by far the easiest route for you to take and its pretty much straight forward too https://goo.gl/maps/DrCZ3b1VvA72 Quote

Hoggs Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 I have something similar to this for my s7http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322106014991didn't fall off at 60mph so seems alright Quote
Stu Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 It will be quiet until you hit york and then it will be crap Quote

They have a 3 pronged mounting system that then connects to a ball head. If you work out where you want to mount the phone, I'll send you links to what you need. Quote

That comes with a handle bar quick release mount , however I need to have a look at my bars and make sure I've got room for that, if not I'll go down the route you mentioned with the ball connector. Do they feel secure those types? Quote
Oasis Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 Ah, sorry pal. Didn't read it properly. I've tried a few different mounts. They are rock steady and also come with a lanyard to attach the case to the bike should you not clip it onto the bracket properly. So no chance it'll go flying off. They are 100% rain proof, and if you sow some conductive thread in the finger tip of your glove, you can use the touch screen too. The power supply has to be the ultimate addons own though, as it's designed to fit the case. Quote
Westbeef Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 It looks good and the full setup for £50 isn't bad at all, does it have room for a headphone jack? So I could listen to directions. Quote

Tango Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 I had the Ultimate Addons charger and after a while the on/off button died, leaving the thing on all the time! I have this charger on my bike now, which senses when a device is attached to it and switches itself on, then switches itself off when the device is fully charged or removed......been on the bike for over 4 years now with no problems. ......http://buybits.com/angled-micro-usb-hardwire-direct-to-battery-charging-cable-for-motorcycles-cars-sku-16001.html Quote
