Frequently Asked Questions
Is the magnet weaker because the holder is slimmer?
No. It is the same high-grade neodymium magnet at the same strength as our ORIGINAL. The slim body costs you a little bulk and ruggedness, not holding power.
Does it fit the 2nd generation AirTag and the Moto Tag?
Yes. It takes the 1st and 2nd generation Apple AirTag and the Motorola Moto Tag.
What if there is no steel for the magnet to grip?
Use the 3M VHB pad instead. It is there for aluminium bodywork, plastic panels, fibreglass and glass - anything a magnet ignores. Wipe the surface with isopropyl alcohol first and press hard for thirty seconds.
Why is it plastic rather than machined metal?
A metal shell sits between the tag's aerial and the phones it needs to reach, weakening the signal and draining the battery faster. Plastic lets the signal through, so the tag is found from further away and the battery lasts as intended.
When is the magnet the better choice, and when the pad?
The magnet's advantage is speed - nothing to clean or prepare, no curing time, and you can lift it off and move it to another vehicle in seconds. The pad is for surfaces the magnet can't grip, and for anything you want fixed permanently in one place.
Should I buy this or the SUPREME?
Take the SUPREME if you also want the option of zip-tying it to something round or irregular, like a bike frame or a scaffold pole. If magnet or pad covers you, the SLIM does the job.
