Works Great & Easy Setup....

Works fine, allen screws heads strip

Works as intended, the clamp is a bit on the smaller side but grips well even on big-ish tubes. My problem with it is the screws to attach the clamp to the v-lock plate have a very small allen key head and will strip very easily, especially if you use any type of thread locker to prevent what others here have mentioned: loose screws.

Is there a gold mount version of this?

Is there a gold mount version of this?
Asked by: Benjamin
No, the SmallRig Mini V-Lock Battery Plate with Claw-Shaped Clamp does not have a Gold Mount Version. However, I added a similar item below with a Gold Mount. SWIT Battery Plate with Crab-Style Clamp (Gold Mount) BH #SWS7200A
