Removable smartphone holder, and charger

[Buggsy2]

Not an major item, I know, but isn't it nice to buy the right gizmo the first time?

I wanted a removable smartphone holder for a vehicle. Perusing Amazon, I found this one: http://amzn.com/B008ALV0V4
Here's what I like about it:

• Not specific to any phone, so it will work with iPhone, Android, with or without case
• Attaches very securely via vacuum base or adhesive
• Not expensive
• Attaches to a variety of surfaces at different angles, even ones you might think a vacuum wouldn't work

I tried it in an Aircoupe I fly while building the RV-9A. The Coupe is not a smooth flyer, there's definitely some vibration in the cockpit, but this held my iPhone perfectly well for about 1.5 hours of flight and two landings.

Finally if you want a good cigarette lighter charger I like this one http://amzn.com/B00B8M4IMK, which will charge both an iPad and cell phone simultaneously (if your cigarette lighter will supply the amps). Amazon Basics has good quality USB<->30 pin or Lightning cables for less than Apple's prices.

Another charging option below that replaces the plug and the socket with just one unit

Thanks for the timely heads-up guys. I just purchased a GDL 39 & Nexus 7. Am planning new cigarette lighter plugs so this helps me out. Thank you!
