I installed this on the roll cage of my Yamaha Rhino. I was using a Garmin suction cup mount but it tended to come loose due to the vibration and jarring when driving the Rhino off road, or even on rough roads. I decided to try this mount instead, Unfortunately even the largest U-bolt was too small for the roll cage tubing so I had to clamp it to one of the hand holds, above the front windshield area. Although, it is not where I hoped to mount it, that is actually not a bad location.
Pros:
* Easy to mount. The whole process took about 5 minutes.
* Holds the GPS securely, even under rough and bouncy conditions.
* Easy to adjust to just the right angle.
* GPS firmly locks to the holder and will not pop out like with some other holders.
Cons:
* As stated before, I wish they had configured this to mount to larger tubing using the supplied hardware. However, this is sold as a motorcycle handlebar mount, not an ATV/UTV mount, so I guess I shouldn’t complain.
* It is hard to clamp the GPS onto the mount with a 12v DC power cable already attached. I’ve learn the hard way, that to avoid damaging the USB connector you should attach the cable after mounting the unit. In the location I have this mounted, this is kind of a pain.

This little guy is great. I have not had a problem with it falling out of my pocket, as I clip it with the meter inside my pocket, and attach the other clip to a belt loop. I would have liked to of had a manual reset button on the unit, but that is the only thing I would change. With this meter, I have set goals, and am really starting to get into the walking and enjoying it. All I can say is “Get It” you won’t be sorry.

10 year old grandson thought this was the “Best gift ever” to go with the Nerf Dart gun. Lots of darts to shoot his 3 siblings.

I love the Wii gaming system. This was actually purchased used a second Wii system for our basement. We have a very small family room in the house we recently purchased and were unable to set up any of the fitness and dancing games, so we got this for the basement gym area.
Wii is highly interactive and the best thing is that most games get you up and moving, which is great for both adults and kids. When I DDR or any of the fitness games, I always lose weight.
Great family fun!

Dreadful. Judging from the first paragraph, this novel had the potential for being absorbing and a good holiday read. I was soon only making my way through it because I had nothing else to read and I kept thinking it must get better since it came highly recommended. If only I had had something better than this time waster: lazy plot that never seemed to go anywhere because it went in too many irrelevant directions, little firsthand knowledge of the circus, low-level vocabulary. A waste of time on a good topic.

The outer part of the screen is all lens. Huge amount of vignetting unless the camera is zoomed in which defeats the purpose of a wide angle adapter.
The treads on the 30.5 adapter do not work on either my camera or my UV filter I could use the 30mm bu tit is not right. So back to the store with this cheap lens.

This was a simple story but for some reason it kept my interest. I put it off for a year or so, despite many recommendations by others. I just kept thinking “oh, another story about slaves from their perspective”. But it was written in such a wonderful way that my interest was piqued in the first few chapters and I was hooked. A book you will NOT regret reading. Which can not be said for many that are on the bestseller list. Look at the review proportions (mostly fives) compared to other so called best sellers. Also, this has staying power on the bestseller list. Enjoy!

As I am seeking spirituality, I found this to be a most inspiring and informative read. Even though everyone will discover their own interpretation of God’s words, I believe the results will be positive. I ordered Conversations with God, book 2 before finishing book 1.
