    I'm interested in a ball mount version with mic holder... Does the current version accommodate the battery eliminator?
    I was actually debating which radio to buy and this radio was on the list... This mount made the decision for me :)

    I offer 3D scanning services if you ever need anything. I can also surface the scan and import to Solidworks file for you or any other file type

    I finally had sometime to develop a more universal
    $19 UV-5R VHF/UHF Dual Band Radio 144-148MHz 420-450MHz Transceiver
    UV-5R Ram Ball mount revision.
    This version will fit all generations of the UV-5R with the OEM Speaker-Mic, and either the OEM 1800mah battery and OEM extended 3800mah battery. I'm still working on a design that will accommodate the UV-5R with the 2100mah battery.

    I NEED THIS! Very nicely done.

    Is it possible to get the mount without the mic mount on the side?

    @RadioTaco I was able to design a mount without the speaker-mic designed and printed.

    These are sick mounts! I'd be interested in a cell phone one with the ram ball threads, but I have a very uncommon phone (Sony Xperia 5) with a case. What would be the process for getting you the dimensions, and what kind of price would I be looking at?

    I like the idea and execution of this mount, I’m just having a hard time pulling the trigger on an accessory that cost more than the radio!o_O

    That's the "problem" with the radio being so inexpensive. I've just as much money in accessories (tri-band antenna, BNC adapters, home made dipole antennas, external mic, battery eliminator, extended battery, programming cable) for the
    $65 UV-5x3 Tri-Band Radio: High-Power Amateur Handheld with USB-C Charging - VHF, 1.25M, UHF - Customizable Features - Comprehensive Accessory Bundle Included
    UV-5x3 than the radio itself.

    I made a mount for this radio/mic and have yet to try it out. If It doesn't work well (the cuts were too large and I have a feeling the radio is going to wobble while offroad), I'm definitely coming back and getting one of these.
