Update:

We just received a great review from Forbes!  Check it out here: Forbes reviews the S-Mount

"Testing showed the tablets were secure and that it was almost impossible to pull a tablet off the S-Mount when exerting downward or shear force. However, when the tablet was removed using a pealing motion it came off the mount quite easily."

Doug Olenick - Forbes Magazine



THE INTUITIVE SLIM DOCKING STATION...

The S-Mount is an easy way to wall mount, use, and show off any tablet or smart phone.  Remove your device instantly, then slip it into your favorite carrying case. 

With super easy installation, you can quickly free your home from clutter.


How easy is it to install?  VERY easy!  Check out the installation in under a minute!



Our VERY high strength Neodymium magnets are located behind the rubber face, these grab onto the thin metal adapter that is attached to the tablet (This will not hurt the tablet).  The rubber face protects the tablet from scratching, but also provides the benefit of keeping the tablet from sliding, or being easily moved from side-to-side, up or down...yet it can be pulled straight outward.

The metallic pad that is attached to the rear of the tablet is very thin (so you can use your carrying case).  It is attached to the tablet with 3M double sided adhesive, this is very strong and will not fall off, yet it can be removed if desired.  The metallic pad is attracted to the magnets in the wall plate, which holds the two together.



Looks like a wall plate

Designed to blend easily into any home, the finished installation is a very clean appearance.


Super Thin!

The S-Mount is easily installed on any surface, allowing control where you want.  At only 1/4” thick, the tablet looks like is floating just slightly off the wall, for a very clean appearance. 



Tablet can go in any direction

The high power magnets, combined with the custom rubber face, allows the panel to be placed at any angle and then easily rotated.


Super Safe, your tablet will NOT fall off!

A custom rubber face protects your device from slipping and keeps it in place, plus it's easy to clean. 


Mount Anywhere, even on a mirror!

The options for attaching your tablet are endless.  



Fits ANY tablet or smart phone!

Continue to use your favorite case!

"Overall, the S-Mount is quite effective with its assigned task and if a tablet owner is looking for a simple way to secure a tablet to a wall this could be a good option."

Although there are always risks in any project, this is a very solid item.  All of the development is 100% complete, vendors are sourced, and prototypes of the various parts are tested and approved.  At this point we need to start tooling for the metal and plastic parts, from there it's an easy process to final production.  

We have a history of designing, developing, and bringing products to market, so your investment is solid.

March 2013 to October 2014: Prototypes developed and tested, field samples tested, 45 different revisions!

February 2015: Photography, videos and artwork

April 2015: Indiegogo Launch

Where is this made?

The units are designed and assembled in the USA.  The parts are sourced from the USA and other countries.

How can I ask a question?

We would be happy to help, just send us a note!

How can I buy multiple units?

Simply multiply the number of units that you want by the cost.  We do have discounts for 3 and 10 packs.

What is the S-Mount mount in the videos?

These are hand made prototypes of the final design.  The production versions will look even better as they will be created with professional tooling.

How long did you spend developing the S-Mount mount?

I started with the idea four years ago.  Over 45 different prototype variations, and hundreds of designs were completed to get to this final product.

Will the magnets hurt my tablet?

No, the magnets will not interfere with any part of your tablet or phone and will not erase the memory.

How much weight will this design hold?

We do not have an exact weight specification, although we have tested the design with large 12.2” tablets and they held VERY firm.  The tablet is EXTREMELY hard to slide do to our proprietary rubber surface, yet can be removed by simply pulling outward. 

Can the tablet fall off the mount?

Anything is possible with enough force.  We have used this design with large 12.2” tablets, and were very aggressive in trying to get them to “pop-off” with HARD button pressing, they stayed put with no issues.

What if I have more than 1 tablet and want to use the mount for both of them?

We sell extra metallic adapter pads for only $4 each on Indiegogo, this will allow you to add a tablet.

Is the metallic adapter pad that goes on the rear of the tablet reusable?

No.  It uses a strong adhesive that will not hurt the tablet, but the metallic pad will bend upon removal.  We sell extra replacement metallic adapter pads for only $4 each on Indiegogo.

What if I move and want to remove the S-Mount?

If using the 3M double stick tape, simply use a putty knife to slowly pry it from the surface. If you screwed it to the surface, peel back the rubber and unscrew the mount.  A small amount of patch/paint to cover the holes and you are good to go. 

Will it work if I mount it at an angle?

Yes it will work on any surface at any angle.

Can I pick up the S-Mount mount locally?

No, at this time we do not offer local pick-up

How much is shipping?  (We are looking into reducing the cost, any excess will be refunded to you at time of shipment)

NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING AT THIS TIME, SORRY!

United States:

1 Units = $3

 3 packs = $8

10 packs = $12

Canada:

1 Units = $15

 3 packs = $30

Sorry, No International at this time

When will it ship?

We are expecting the first orders to ship August 2015 

Can I get a refund?

Yes. We understand that things come up in life and decisions change. After the campaign ends simply contact us and we will issue the refund.

What if I don’t like it?

No problem…although we are sure you will be very satisfied.  Within 30 days of receiving the S-Mount, contact us and we will issue the refund.

Is it patented?

Yes, several US and International patents are filed.
