| Posted by fromyk Nuvi 255W I own a Nuvi 255W and the base also included a round pad with a sticky side. I attached it to a flat area on my quad and plan to take it with me the next time I go out for a ride. Does anybody know how well this pad sticks, or how well the base suction cup will stick to this pad? I travel in some fairly rough terrain with my machine and am trying to build up a POI data base of trails to share with other quadders. My concern is that the sticky pad not come off while on a rough ride. Speed is not an issue as we do not travel fast on most rides as we are traveling through bush, rocks, etc.. Any comments would be appreciated. |
| Posted by dsc68 Using the sticky disk The pad sticks very strongly but it doesn't have much give to accommodate curved surfaces ie. You need a flat surface to stick it to otherwise it will move and eventually come unstuck. If you have a slightly curved surface then the suction pad may stick just as well. In any case, I would be adding a tether. The disk is more intended to be stuck on fabric or textured surfaces where the suction cup would not stick. |
