Will be doing some longer sessions this winter so want something to watch to pass the hours of darkness.

What's the best holder? Something that will clip to a bedchair.

Also do people stream with a SIMM or is that mega bucks so best to download first? If SIMM what are the best deals?

Cheers

If you get a Samsung galaxy you can expand the storage with a card so do it at home and take to the bank.
I used to have a 3 SIM card years ago That was pretty good for the price
my wife had a virgin Mobile Phone account that had unlimited data which was great but I got sick of paying out for virgin so let it all go.

Best off downloading the films to your tablet.
With the 4G or wifi (on if you put the sim in a dongle) plus the colder temperatures battery will get drained a lot quicker.

Couldn't find the anaconda in stock anywhere. Covid related supply issue no doubt

The Lamicall Gooseneck arrived today. Looks very solid and fairly light too.

The clamp works with my iPhone 10 and goes smaller so that's a bonus.

Hopefully try it out whilst blanking this weekend.

Has anyone brought a tablet holder recently. Been looking for an anaconda but none around.
So many on Amazon and I don't want to buy something crap that has to be sent back cheers

Plenty on FB market place - I picked up a brand new one locally for £5 - a bit like this

Flexible Tablet Holder

Make sure you can get to the bedchair frame underneath the perimeter padding - clamp on - job done

Got one off EBay for a fiver. Clips onto bed chair and you can bend it in any position you find comfy to watch. I use my iPad in mine for movies and sometimes live sport.
