Hydra Alien Pro Car Mount
The Hydra Alien Pro car mounting system utilizes a highly customizable combination of dovetail plates and strong electronic suction cups that allow users to fine-tune the exact placement of their shot to achieve almost any angle possible when mounting onto a vehicle. The updated Pro design features added safety features such as retractable safety pins and a sliding design for small adjustments.
Electronic Suction Cups
The electronic suction cups provide advantages over standard suction cups with a 5-second attachment speed, 1000x per section real-time pressure detection, and 8-12 hours of battery life to maintain the hold. These enhancements are designed to save time and effort while keeping your gear even more secure.
ELECTRONIC SUCTION CUP SAFETY NOTICE
The Electronic Suction Cup, like other suction cups, has the potential to leave marks on various surfaces. It is recommended to take precautions such as using protective film or other materials to protect the surface being used. Using these suction cups in direct sunlight or in hotter environments can increase the chance of leaving a mark. It is not recommended to use these suction cups with wrapped vehicles.
It is recommended to use this suction cup on a flat surface with the weight of the arm balanced over the center of the suction cup. Extending the arm past the suction cup or side mounting the suction cup can increase the risk of failure. In these situations we recommend taking additional precautions such as further securing the system with Ratchet Straps or Safety Chains.
Regardless of additional safety measures, we always recommend pushing down the suction cup when first attaching it to any surface. The suction cup should be as flat against the surface as possible and should look noticeably flatter than when not attached. Attaching the suction cup without applying physical force to it can greatly increase the chance of accidental disconnection.
