RAM® do not make a composite long arm in B Size, so every long-arm kit in this range uses the aluminium one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it differ from the RAM-B-166-C-202U?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth use the same aluminium long arm. This one swaps the aluminium suction base and round plate for composite versions, so it is lighter and holds up better in salt air. The all-aluminium kit is the tougher choice for heavy vibration or knocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill the long arm hold a tablet?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe B Size range is rated to 907g (2 lb) in standard use, which covers phones and light tablets. For a heavier tablet, step up to a C Size mount rather than pushing this one past its rating, and bear in mind a long arm loads the cup harder than a short one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the suction cup covered by the warranty?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. RAM® treat suction cups as a general wear item, so the cup sits outside the lifetime warranty. The rest of the mount hardware is covered as normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat surfaces will the cup stick to?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGlass and smooth, non-porous surfaces. Textured dashboards will not hold, so fit a RAM® adhesive disk to the dash first and stick the cup to that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow fast does it ship?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf this item shows as being in stock then it will usually ship from our Auckland warehouse in 1 business day.
