The JOBY SeaPal GOMount is an accessory designed to allow the JOBY SeaPal Waterproof Case to be mounted to various existing mounts, grips, or devices that are originally intended for use with GoPro cameras. This product comes with all the necessary mounting hardware to securely attach it to your JOBY SeaPal Waterproof Case.

Function Description:

The primary function of the SeaPal GOMount is to bridge the compatibility gap between the JOBY SeaPal Waterproof Case and the vast ecosystem of GoPro-compatible mounting accessories. By attaching the GOMount to the SeaPal Waterproof Case, users can leverage their existing GoPro mounts, tripods, handles, and other accessories, expanding the versatility and application of their SeaPal case in various shooting scenarios. This enables the SeaPal case, and thus the smartphone within, to be used in a wider range of activities and environments, particularly those where GoPro cameras are commonly employed, such as action sports, underwater photography, and vlogging. The design ensures a secure connection, allowing users to confidently attach their SeaPal case to different setups without concerns about stability or detachment during use.

Important Technical Specifications:

• Compatibility: Specifically designed for the JOBY SeaPal Waterproof Case and compatible with existing mounts, grips, or devices designed for GoPro cameras.
• Mounting Hardware: Includes all necessary hardware for attachment to the JOBY SeaPal Waterproof Case.
• Depth Limit: Do not exceed depths of 10m/33ft when using the GOMount with the SeaPal Waterproof Case. This is a critical safety specification to prevent damage to the equipment and potential water ingress into the waterproof case.
• Temperature Limit: Do not store the gear in direct sunlight or environments exceeding temperatures of 30°C/86°F. This guideline helps preserve the integrity of the materials and seals, ensuring long-term performance.

Usage Features:

• Easy Attachment: The GOMount is attached to the JOBY SeaPal using the included mounting hardware. The attachment process involves screwing on the hardware with a flathead screwdriver until it is tightened securely. This straightforward setup ensures that users can quickly prepare their SeaPal for use with GoPro accessories.
• Underwater Use: The SeaPal GOMount is designed for underwater use, provided that all initial setup instructions have been carefully followed. This feature extends the utility of the SeaPal Waterproof Case for activities like snorkeling, shallow diving, and other water sports, allowing users to capture footage with their smartphone in aquatic environments. Adherence to the 10m/33ft depth limit is crucial for safe underwater operation.
• Versatile Mounting: Once attached, the GOMount allows the SeaPal Waterproof Case to be connected to any GoPro-compatible mount. This opens up a wide array of possibilities for positioning and securing the SeaPal, from chest mounts and helmet mounts to selfie sticks and suction cups, enhancing the creative potential for capturing content.

Maintenance Features:

• Post-Use Cleaning: After each use, and before detaching it from the SeaPal Waterproof Case, the GOMount should be rinsed thoroughly in fresh water. This is particularly important after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water, as it helps prevent corrosion and the buildup of residues that could compromise the device's performance or longevity.
• Drying: After rinsing, the GOMount should be dried before storing. Proper drying prevents water spots, mildew, and potential damage from moisture.
• Storage: Store the GOMount in a dry, cool area. This storage condition helps maintain the material integrity and extends the product's lifespan by protecting it from extreme temperatures and humidity.
• Warranty Information: JOBY products, including the SeaPal GOMount, are warranted to be fit for their designed purpose and free from defects in materials and workmanship. However, the warranty does not cover subsequent damage or misuse. Given that JOBY SeaPal products are often used in extreme and volatile environments, the warranty explicitly states that loss or damage of equipment, loss of income, reputation, or other financial expenses, as well as personal injury, are not covered. Users are advised to retain their receipt as proof of purchase, as the period of validity for the Standard Limited Warranty is defined by the law in force in the country, state, or region where the product is sold.
