We are a new startup family business in Gilbert, AZ. We have 3 daughters who play softball year round and in a quest to find a way to keep our GoPro and Smartphones from overheating while recording games, we developed a cooling system that no one else is currently offering. The first design was quite bulky, but the final compact version will be ready soon. Also, we have tried just about every fence mount on the market. The really cheap products don’t work and the high quality stainless steel fence mounts are great, but way overpriced. This led us into developing a new fence mounting system and we believe our Universal Fence Mount is just right for the price and functionality.
Our Universal Fence Mount is an all-in-one device that is a great fence hanger system 3D printed with engineering grade PETG resin with USA made premium MILLED carbon fiber and not powder or dust. This Carbon Fiber Extreme Black PETG Pro filament is manufactured by atomicfilament.com in Indiana. PETG, a glycol modified version of Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), commonly used to manufacture water bottles is a semi-rigid material with good impact resistance. When such a material is infused with carbon fiber to form carbon fiber PETG, the resulting filament is used in the production of lightweight but rigid parts, typically in making parts used in aerospace, civil engineering, the military, and motorsports!. Compatible with our cooling systems to keep your GoPro or Cell Phone camera cool and recording. You will NOT need to buy another mounting system! We are shipping these for a limited time with a GoPro “like” J-Hook Design Buckle with an upgraded aluminum thumb screw ($4 value) and a 1/4″ Hot Shoe Adapter Mount with an upgraded aluminum thumb screw ($7 value).
We get it. We understand how expensive these sports are.
Over the last year at several Softball tournaments I have been asked by many to buy my GoPro cooling unit. The final design will contain 2 cooling fans for use on those really hot days and on cooler days a single fan can be used. Actually the first version had only one fan and it seemed to work fine.
Record settings on the GoPro Hero8 Black were at 1080p with 60 fps.
For our club teams, we use a GoPro Hero8 Black for recording the complete game. Recorded on a Lexar 512GB U3 A2 1066x microSD card at 1080P with 60 fps. See GoPro for the recommend sdcards… just don’t use the cheap ones as you won’t like the results.
After the tournament, I upload the complete game videos to the GoPro cloud using their Subscription service ($50 a year for unlimited cloud storage and it’s also the camera warranty). I then share the link of each game to all players and parents so they can watch or download the video for their highlight reals. The shared links require no login, therefore they only have access to what you share with them and not your other uploaded video library.
As for streaming the game live, I use my kid’s smartphone that is playing to broadcast the game live via GameChanger TeamManager. I’m not using my data for this, sorry kids.
I’ve tried other methods and cameras, but getting the GoPro to link to a hotspot and/or streaming service can be troublesome and problematic. Other cameras don’t provide the unlimited cloud service either.
My philosophy is the recorded video is the gold standard and what I use for making recruiting videos. The live streaming video, although nice to have for parents not attending, is secondary.
The Universal Fence Mount is priced at $30 with several upgrades. The GoPro and Smartphone coolers will be ready soon, probably early 2022. We are in the final stages of testing the product design and pricing has not been set yet, but were expecting it to be under $50.
