Finding a Cell Phone Holder2334978
Shopping for a cell phone holder appears easy enough, but it can be complex by limitless options. A holder could be a phone case or cradle, the possibilities are endless, spanning from unique novelty cases to a vehicle installed cell charger. Particularly with blue tooth, the most typical are car kits which I will focus on. Think about these 5 points before you buy. Don't be concerned-no technical expertise needed. Here are some common options to help choose the right one for you.
Universal or Specific? There are holders designed for certain brands or particular models. One of the most essential variations is whether you have a PDA or cell phone. This-along with size--is the only distinction that really matters when looking for a universal holder. Universal holders are affordable (as low as $ten) and have a suction or adhesive mount for any vehicle. They are padded inside to safe a wide variety of devices.
Passive or Active- This was confusing to me. I hadn't heard these terms used to describe a cell phone holder or cradle. Furthermore, it was tough to find their meaning definitions weren't readily available on product websites. Ultimately, I found it refers to charge. In a nutshell, active will charge the phone while in the cradle, whilst passive will not. Even though, you can plug a travel charger cable into your phone while it is on the passive holder. Fixed is installing the active cradle to connect to the vehicle's electrical system.
Installation- Installation is simple with windshield or dash suction mounts. Adhesive discs are also typical and can be placed anywhere. Another answer is a mounting platform like Proclip. The clips to dashboard seams for permanent and safe attachment. A screwdriver is needed but not to screw it to the car-no damage is done. If you are going for the gold, and want the electrical connection, leave it to a professional.
Mount location and phone size- Mount on the vent, dashboard, windshield, console and cigarette lighter. It is easier to find cigarette lighter mounts for small phones, keep the bigger models on the dash.
