I hear you, tight is better. Did you feel any improvement with vibration. The rubber on mine is good but i think the bearing has gone.


Thx

I only had slight vibration when cold and noise, both disappeared with the new HB.

Thanks for that

What is the brand/name of these mounts and are how do they affix to the pad, Also how are they fixed to the dash.
They look pretty solid But will they hang in there on heavy corrugations as many of the limestone tracks/roads I use are pretty gnarly.
I have a phone mount that fixes to the windscreen via a suction cap and the phone is held magnetically and this works rather well But I doubt it would be any good with the heavier pad, Hence the need for something a bit more robust to mount the Samsung pad on.

self adhesive to the console frame,,
magnetic pad on back of tablet,,
being a small tablet (8" ?) weights not so bad and the way it hangs off the mounts should be ok,, I dont even do up the locking retainers on the back..

but corrugations?
