• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

FOR SALE: Filmtools Gripper 115 XL camera mount

For sale is my dash mount that I have used for the past two in and out of my Jeep. It has been an absolute trooper and lasted through several windshields. It spends all of its time in my car, suctioned to the window. I keep it attached for months at a time and only find that I need to repump the plunger on it once every 3 weeks.

The only reason I'm selling it is because it does not fit my Canon XH-A1s. I am tired of getting shaky footage with my HD camera while my smaller SD miniDV cam gets solid footage out of the front of my car while in motion. If you have ever watched my stream you have seen a sample of how well it holds my camera still while in motion.

The asking price for this new on Filmtools site is $102.75 plus shipping and tax. I am only asking 80 for it and that includes shipping to anywhere in the CONUS. Outside of there and I will have to add 25 dollars to the price.

Bellow are a few of photos of the mount. The last two are from the Filmtools website while the first three are of my actual mount. You will see it can hold my large Canon but only with it on top and not when its hanging off my window. This is not because the Canon weights to much, just because it is too big and bulky.

One thing I should note. I am using the little extension bar that this comes with still and will still need it so it is not included in the sale. it does not really do anything for this mount and this will still fit any camera fine that is smaller than a Canon XH-A1s. For my larger Canon I need the Gripper 116 which is considerably larger.
