Arkon’s New No Glue Removable Dash Mount Line

Finally a mount that can be attached to your dash and easily removed without leaving any residue has arrived from our buddies at Arkon.  As long as you have a clean flat surface, these will adhere, and it works on testured surfaces too.  The mounting base features a removable “sticky” adhesive that provides a strong mounting connection, yet is removable and reusable without leaving any sticky residue.  Though the suction pad feels sticky to the touch, it will leave no residue when removed.  If the base loses suction over time due to an accumulation of dust or dirt, lightly wash the base with liquid soap to recharge the suction power (go figure, dish detergent recharges the mount).

Arkon groups a variety of cradles with these mounts and they can be used to hold stuff as small as an iPod Touch and as large as an iPad.

We recently uncovered some pretty funny videos released by TomTom.  Not sure who the intended audience was, but take a few minutes to watch these videos.  Then take a look at some cool mounts for your TomTom.

TomTom GPS Car and Motorcycle Mount Guide

Filed under: GPS Mounts and Accessories — Tags: , , — mountguys @ 6:17 pm

TomTom has been a major player in the GPS field in Europe for a long time.  Over the past several years they have also become a top seller in the US and Canada.  Unlike other manufacturers, TomTom has used some strange naming standards.  They also have used some strange mounting methods.  This blog post discusses the types and offers some advice for the lost TomTom souls out there.

TomTom’s flagship branding is the TomTom One, TomTom XL and TomTom GO.  One might think there could only be one type of mount for each.  We wish that was the case.  In fact, there are several within each line.  Let’s review the options.

The TomTom One line has a few variants.  The TomTom One 125 130 130S 140 140S GPS.  The TomTom One IQ and Europe.  All use a circular attachment on the back of the GPS.

bet.  The TomTom GO series.  There are three types.  The most popular by far is the TomTom 20 and 30 series.  This includes the TomTom GO 930T 920T 920 730 720 630 530 520 GPS.  These use a strangely shaped attachment that I don’t think there is an English name for.
