Never mind, I found them. Looking up the bolt on Bernardi's website, they are described as Tamper-Torx. A quick innerweb search turns up plenty of choices.
Will do. I had it mounted under the bottom seat bolt. It worked okay, but the plastic fascia under the seat wouldn't completely reattach.
So I got the torx tamper from Home Depot and decided to relocate the stalk to the higher bolt with the bracket sticking out the top of the fascia.
When I had installed the stalk on the lower bolt, I had closed the metal bottom bracket up a bit with a hammer.
To use it on the upper bolt, it needed to be back to the original shape. When bending it back, it broke at the bend. :frown: Prolly should have heated it up....
So, I've got a message into Arkon about buying another foot bracket.
Haven't forgotten about this. It took Arkon a week to respond and they are just going to send me new brackets for free, so I can't complain.
I've got a custom designed holder for my phone which I 3D printed that I've been testing. I've got the holder designed to hold a wireless charging puck so all I have to do is drop my phone in it and I'm good to go. No connections to make.
Currently the prototype is mounted on a generic suction cup mount for testing purposes. Last week I had a 4+ hour drive and I noticed that a couple of hours in, the puck wasn't charging any longer. I took it out of the holder and it was very warm so I suspect that it has a thermal cut out to keep it from frying itself. A little bit of trial and error seems to indicate that the position of the puck in the holder is a bit high on the phone an it's not getting good communication.
I'll move the socket for the puck down a bit and reprint it to see how it will work. I may have to include some cooling holes in the mount if the relocation doesn't resolve the heat issue. I have to reprint it anyway to accommodate the bolt pattern on the Arkon stalk.
Stay tuned.
