Finally a Truly Universal Digiscope Adapter

[realunlucky]

Quick shout out to Novagrade digiscoping adapters, this thing is awesome. Since I upgraded to a new phone and have yet to find my perfect spotting scope I wanted a system that was usable with any choice that I made in the future. So with in mind I started researching the various Universal adapter systems. With a few keys stokes I discovered this article by Matt Cashell, Novagrade Phone Adapter. Guess I hadn't been paying attention because my search followed up with a Justin Crossley article, Versatility in Digiscoping. Then there some member feed back in this thread, Novagrade Ranger App. All these reviews are excellant reads but I'll share a few quotes from the articles.
Bitterroot Bulls--"This is an instrument built for a lifetime of hard, versatile use."
Justin Crossley--"After the initial alignment, I didn't have to make any adjustments when attaching my phone for proceeding pictures. That speaks to the robustness of the adapter"
SLDMTN--"universal normally means it can do them all but none of them well, which is not the case here"
elkeaterco--"I really like how secure and easy it attached to my spotter"
sneaky--"The adapter hasn't skipped a beat, just wish the rest of my gear would hold up that well"
Those above testimonials were more than enough for me to want to get a Novagrade on the way for myself.

You're never going to look back! I'm still using my original Novagrade phone adapter and never have to worry about which spotter or phone I'm using. One of my favorite pieces of gear.

I really regret waiting because of the preconceptions I had about the various other universal adapters out there.I must have been under a rock while everyone else on Rokslide knew how awesome the Novagrade is.

In true Rokslide fashion this is a "Buy once, Cry once" tool that always (any optic, any phone) works as intended.

First impressions are; love how securely it mounts to my scope.

The Novagrade is easy to mount horizontal and it stays there when you want to record video.

The vignetting is easily removed with slight camera adjustments but it doesn't bother me because typically I'm simply sharing the photo by text or I can edit, crop it and post it up later.

Quality kit.

I still have the single gripper and am pretty happy with it. Glad you’re liking this Sam. Nice of Doug at Novagrade to send it out for testing.

Your so right Robby. Thanks again Doug, all you guys over at Novagrade have been awesome to work with. I do appreciate the hands on opportunity to use the Novagrade though out the season.

Sure I thought I was content with my prior setup but dang I never knew what I was missing. Like most "Buy once, Cry once" you appreciate the real "VALUE" when you put it to work. The better and easier something is to use the more you'll use it, and that's a fact.

Pricey, but not too bad considering you need multiple adapters for multiple optics which adds up. Dang it Rokslide you’re gonna put me in the poorhouse!

Justin Crossley Novagrade versatility video watch Justin's video if you really "need" a reason to be pushed over the edge into getting a Novagrade.

First off, cool product.

There are other universal clamping style holders that achieve the same goal, albeit, maybe not using the same method, but I guess once you get the right sizing piece dialed in, you're good to go with this Novagrade unit, cool!

Hahahaha. I’ve heard from members that Rokslide is where good paychecks go to die

Looks like a sweet unit! Any idea what it weighs?

Here's a picture this is a quality component

Here's a quick reference to a snack bag I had in my pack.

For me it's just about another day of snacks.

Cool pic of those sage grouse!

any promo codes for this product??

 

[Grecco]

I would email them telling them that you really like how this looks and ask them if the have any promo code. I have tried that with a couple of companies and have had some luck.

Novagrade Double Gripper Digiscope Adapter Review

 

[THBZN]

Any input on single vs. double gripper? Sorry if this was asked earlier, just curious on pros and cons, weight/price, etc.

Matt Cashell reviewed the single versus the double last year on here somewhere. Just do a search. Pretty sure he confirmed the double was definitely better
