I have a pair of Maven 9x45 and I’m looking to get a Bino adapter to mount it on a tripod for glassing. Currently I’m between the Kramer design Bino adapter (maven has it on their website) and the outdoorsman Bino adapter. Which one would you recommend? Any pros and cons for them? Thanks.

I just ordered the OD one. Seems to be the most popular. Hope to have it by the first of the week.
 
Can’t speak to the other one, but I have the outdoorsmans and like it.

Another vote for the outdoorsman. I have Maven 9x's and 15x's and can easily switch between the two.
 
One thing that KDC has is an additional piece that allows you to balance your binos. The bino adaptor can be placed in numerous points so your binos are better balanced. It costs extra, but was nice with 12x50's.

I don't have the KDC anymore, but the Field Optics Research gets the job done for less money. It also works in the event you want to run two binos (8x and 15x) because you can buy an extra bino stud for $5.
 
The Outdoorsmans is so pricey but it works PERFECTLY. Quick on and off, adjusts easily and locks down rock solid.
 
I also ordered the outdoorsman for my maven 9x45

I originally purchased and compared the outdoorsman and the field optics research. For the price nothing competes with the field optics research but i ended up keeping the outdoorsman as I felt it was a little more user friendly (especially if the hands are cold) and the fit and finish were superior. Had I not had the two side by side I would have been happy with the field optics mount. The KDC appears to be similar quality to the outdoorsman but I've never seen one in person. Personally those are the only three bino mounts I'd consider. I used to have an old Vortex mount and hated that thing. It got the job done once everything was set up but it was a slow tedious chore getting set up to glass.
