Simple and effective, nice work Lijo. Waiting for you to up the game and come up with something sturdier and water proof! You lead, we follow.

Btw, Would this work on an FZ

You can always place couple of magnets below the side panels!

Or do what i did! Tested it and it passed! was pretty hard to remove actually!Used some tape just in case it went of too but im thinking of doing a neat job with velcro.

I've a bike mobile charger from Idea Forge. Check the below link. You can just directly hook it up to battery (though connecting some sort of switch is recommended).

Buy Ideaforge Emergency / Travel Universal Mobile Chargers : Bike Charger online, Ideaforge Emergency / Travel Universal Mobile Chargers : Bike Charger Price, Reviews @ Indiatimes Shopping.

Need to use good magnets mate. yea there is a chance of falling if you go above 60.

Beautiful ideas ! all of them!

just my input - if you are wanting a versatile charging solution:

Quote:

Product:

(It is a white colored Adapter with Blue casing like thing - here)
Croma | Tech Talkers

Croma- 4 Way charger (White product with green packaging) (with 6 months Croma store warranty)

Charges using:
1. 2 pin AC supply OR
2. Ciggie lighter from Car (or could be from an attachment to the battery from Motorcycle- if you wish) OR
3. 2 AA size batteries! OR
4. 1 9 V Battery!

I have posted it in another DIY (that also was for a Mount - DIY is from someone else - I only am suggesting the charging solution.)
here it is:
DIY GPS - Using Car GPS PND on Motorbike.

Thanks,

Ace.

Isnt it dangerous to have the mobile so close to oil tank

Use some cushioning between the Tank & the phone. The vibes will damage the phone/GPS device.
