Rumcent Telescopic Tripod Gooseneck Floor Stand For Phone, Universal Smartphone Holder Mount,Easy Clamp For Phone

Product Information

To play it safe, if a phone use is not specifically mentioned under allowed exemptions by your state or territory, assume it's illegal while driving. State and territory laws If your car has a very flat, smooth interior surface then one of these adhesive attachments might work better, but the interiors of most cars aren't flat in the spots you might place a phone holder. The Northern Territory Road User's Handbook (2020) states you can only use a mobile phone while driving to "make or receive an audio phone call or as a driver's aid (e.g. using your phone for navigation)". It goes on to specify restrictions around these uses. Large magnifications do result in dimmer and fuzzier images, so this technique is best suited to bright objects under good conditions. Like many other models, this one works via a clamp system that can be adjusted to hold your phone in place, with the lens centred over the eyepiece. Telescopes with smartphone adapters included

We fitted our plumbing connector eyepiece tube to a 12mm Plössl, but we found that most of our standard Plössl eyepieces fitted well. We were able to capture a range of targets including the Moon and deep-sky objects using the NightCap app, and we were very impressed. The next feature up for praise is the convenience factor provided by the Vicseed Car Phone Mount. This accessory boasts a long arm design that’s suitably robust enough for even larger smartphones but it’s also telescopic, which can extend from 4.84-inches right up to 9.05-inches. That’s decent, although vibration and bumps can tend to make the longer reach option a little less desirable if you’re of a nervous disposition.You can also get suction grips and cradles that attach directly to your dashboard, although this won’t work if it has a textured surface. Another possibility is to connect the holder to your car stereo.

The ball joint on the vent mount gives you a wider range of tilt and swivel, so you can keep the phone in view, and – with a little practice – you can insert and remove it single-handed, with the arms releasing as you pull the phone vertically out of its cradle. It can only hold the phone in portrait mode, but it’s one affordable, sturdy mount. It also holds the phone pretty steady to remove the risk of shakes that will affect your final image.Other use cases are sometimes unspecified, but still fall under blanket bans around phone use because they involve looking at or touching your phone, among other distractions.
