Anybody still making these at the mo? Just bought a Solarstorm X2 and would like a gopro mount adapter.

If anyone is after a mount I've 2 spare from this batch, one has an additional cut for a power cable and the other is solid.

The one with the cutout has a small amount of material missing around where it attaches to the GoPro mount but can't see it causing any problems.

Happy to stick them in the post to anyone after one.

Do these work with the UniqueFire lights, like this one -

Without seeing the bottom of the light I can't say 100% but looks as though it uses the same mount as my light so in all likelihood yes.

I'd love to give it a go if you don't mind popping one in the post? The solid one should work fine.

No wishing to piss on any manufacturing chips.

Gearbest sell a CNC'd version fro about £1.20

Looks spot on that, might give it a whirl. Unless anyone on here wants to sell one they've produced?

My only issue is that my bar mount is aluminium as well and the tolerances mean that when tightened there's still a little play as the tabs are all bent in towards each other so it kind of pivots where tips of the 3 tabs grip the base of the 2 tabs and the bolt is undersized for the holes allowing a bit of play.

Whereas the plastic ones compress evenly so it's held in by friction rather than being pinched. Doesn't seem to be an issue as long as either the mount or the camera/light is plastic, only on my bar light where the light and the bar clamp are aluminium.

Just spotted this - have sent you over an email.

Cheers,
