I could but not sure about the use case… what would you attach to it?
I would be free to put on the MagSafe charger of my choice...some of us have a ton of them laying around, without spending more money on yet another MagSafe charger adapter

Noted! Will consider adding such variation.

Thats awesome, thanks for this...really appreciate you considering our opinions..this is why you have such a good brand and why we love it so much

Also a question..does the mount at all block the Window defrosting capabilities at all?

i was just driving and thinking about your mount and turned the defroster on and it certainly feels like air was blowing at the top towards the Window.

Thank you!!! :)

As for defrosting - not at all, I've been using defrosting many times recently (it got warmer here in NorCal for the past 2 weeks but before that it was almost like real winter), and never had issues, and the charger is installed (as I said in the original thread, I've grown to prefer this as my phone location, because even though it's not advisable, let's face it - most of us are 🐒 and want to see our phone every now and then when waiting on a red light).

I would (and do) use a ball mount to get it higher and closer to me. Still looking for the perfect option, what I have is ok not perfect.

I am 5'11" and this is within arm's reach for me...

I'm 5'11" and that definitely would not be. This is too far and I've made around a 40mm extension, going for more, plus the offset for height.

here is how ours stays… when I put my phone on it I can touch the screen while my back is on the seat (ie no bending or anything).

You realize you sit differently than I do, and are likely shaped differently right? My current one is probably 50mm closer and 70mm diagonally up and right. I have to lean forward to actually use it, and can barely do a touch/swipe without moving. I'm 3D printing version 4 today to move it again.

Love this design and I’m definitely in the market but I‘m pretty committed to the Peak Design phone case and mounts. They offer a ball mount version but only in 20mm and 1” ball sizes. Any plans to support these?

Let me see if I can make this 20mm without major redesign, but have in mind that these cases work with all pucks as far as I know. I just had a customer come over for PPF and we were chatting and he tested his case on this product as we got curious if it works and it did work.
I will follow up later today about the 20mm...

Just another point of context: I have an Android Phone (Pixel 7) that is not magsafe compatible. I require a 'holster'-style or 'friction-pinch'-style phone holder. I have historically 3d printed my own design to match my phone and case and use-case (location, angles, etc) and attach it to a Proclip USA base.

I'm sure I'm not alone...

we have the clamp version for this use case… or am I missing something? :) /that one doesn’t charge though/

Fair enough. Maybe I am the only use case, at which point, I could just buy your set and modify myself.

I'm really bad at taking photos of the projects I've done, so apologies for the context of this one--it wasn't meant to be showing off my phone mount, but:

I can squeeze a wireless charger into a landscape held phone (mandatory in my opinion--I hate vertical with a fiery passion!!)
