Overview
Built for hunters who want a simple way to document what they see through a spotting scope, this adapter creates a stable connection between your phone and optic for quick video or still-image capture. It uses a strong rare-earth magnet and a thin stainless steel phone plate to keep the setup secure, while the flip-open cap also helps shield the eyepiece from dust and precipitation when not in use. The S1 fits eyepiece sizes from 51mm to 60mm, making it suited to a range of spotting scopes in the field. One trade-off to note: the included phone plate will interfere with wireless charging.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- The S1 is designed for spotting scope eyepieces in the 51mm-60mm range, so fit depends on your optic’s eyepiece size.
- It relies on the included phone plate, which adheres to the phone and may not be ideal for users who want a completely attachment-free setup.
- The phone plate will interfere with wireless charging, so you’ll need to remove or work around it for that function.
- Its primary role is capture support and eyepiece protection, not a universal phone-to-optic solution for every device or scope setup.
