FAQs

What devices can I mount with the SK-23?

You can mount any device with a standard 1/4 inch screw thread, such as action cameras, smaller DSLR cameras, or smartphone mounts.

Does the SK-23 come with a power adapter?

The product description does not specify if a power adapter is included. It requires a Type-C cable and a 5V 1A power source, which may need to be provided separately.

How is the suction activated?

The suction is activated electrically via the Type-C port. Connect it to a power source to engage the strong suction mechanism.

What is the maximum weight capacity of the SK-23?

The maximum suction force is rated at 1kg or 2.2 lb.

Can I use this on a textured surface?

The SK-23 is designed for smooth, non-porous surfaces. Performance on textured or porous surfaces may be significantly reduced or non-existent.

Is the Type-C cable included?

The product information does not specify if the Type-C cable is included. It is recommended to check the packaging contents or product listing details.

Troubleshooting

Suction base not holding firmly

Ensure the surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Verify the Type-C cable is securely connected and the power source is providing 5V 1A. Check the suction pad for any damage or debris; clean if necessary.

Electric suction mechanism not activating

Confirm the Type-C cable is correctly plugged into both the suction base and a functional power source. Check if the power source is providing the required 5V 1A output. Try a different Type-C cable or power adapter.

Device attached to the base feels wobbly

Make sure the 1/4 inch screw is tightened securely onto the camera or mount. Ensure the suction base itself is firmly attached to the surface. Do not exceed the 1kg/2.2 lb maximum load capacity.

Pros and Cons

  • Provides a very secure and stable mounting solution due to its electric suction.
  • Universal compatibility with standard 1/4 inch screw attachments.
  • Quick and easy to attach and detach from surfaces.
  • Suitable for dynamic environments where stability is crucial.
  • Versatile for a range of photographic and videographic applications.

Cons

  • Requires a power source (Type-C, 5V 1A) for the electric suction to function.
  • Suction effectiveness may vary on textured or porous surfaces.
  • Maximum load capacity is limited to 1kg/2.2 lb.
  • The electric mechanism adds a component that may require more careful handling than manual suction cups.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up the SK-23, ensure the target surface is clean and dry. Position the suction base on the desired location and connect the included Type-C cable to the base and a 5V 1A power source. Activate the electric suction mechanism as per the device's specific instructions to engage the strong grip. Once secure, attach your camera or smartphone using the 1/4 inch screw.

Compatibility: The SK-23 is universally compatible with any device featuring a standard 1/4 inch screw mount, including most action cameras (like GoPro, DJI Osmo Action) and camera cages or mounts for smartphones. It attaches best to smooth, non-porous surfaces such as glass, polished metal, high-gloss plastic, and smooth tile.

Care: To maintain the suction mechanism, periodically clean the rubber suction pad with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Store the base in a cool, dry place. Ensure the Type-C port remains free of moisture and debris. Regularly check the connection to the power source.
