Its minimal profile allows for easy access to touch screens and is fully adjustable to accommodate various button and data port configurations.
Accompanying the PortaGrip is a suite of products designed to enhance the in-vehicle smartphone experience. Two different on-dash mounting options; a weighted NoSKID DASH MOUNT and non-slip Ultra Low-Profile DASHMAT allow users to select the best mounting base for their vehicle application.
Intended for use with a vehicle's 12 volt power socket, the DUAL CAR POWER ADAPTER turns one socket into two and the DC TO USB POWER ADAPTER turns a power socket into a USB charging port allowing users to charge electronic devices using the USB cable that came with their device.
Rounding out the line is a series of smartphone and tablet screen protectors. PROTECT-IT Screen Defense, available in Anti-Glare for enhanced visibility and Crystal Clear for invisible protection, is custom cut with Precision Fit technology for all of today's most popular mobile devices including iPhone, iPod, iPad and the most popular Android handsets.

"For the past 10-plus years, PanaVise has developed and produced OEM solutions for partners such as Sirius XM Satellite Radio, Navigon AG, GoPro, Delkin, Bosch Phillips and more." remarks President Gary Richter. "It's time that we leverage this experience in creating mobile mounting solutions to create our own line of mobile accessories mounts.

| Betty Medeiros has worked in customer service for over 31 years, starting in May 1978 at Bender Warehouse, followed by Owen Distribution / Ozbourn-Hessey. She joined PanaVise Products in 2006 and will wrap up her customer service career on Friday, October 16th. Betty has been with PanaVise for the last 3 years in Customer Service where she excelled in customer relations. Betty is a true professional and has great communication skills
Over the years, Betty has also shown off her home cooking and baking skills by bringing in many tasty treats to the office. Employees at PanaVise have enjoyed her treats, although their waistlines are not as thankful.
After retiring Betty has no definite plans; however, she will enjoy working in her garden, spending time on her crafts and exhibiting at craft fairs. Betty has also collected cookie jars for the last twenty years and is working on a book to document them, including all the data about each specific cookie jar and detailed pictures. She has over 300 cookie jars that she hopes to include in the book, which, she envisions may take her a couple of years to complete. Betty also loves to crochet and makes beautiful things for friends and family.
Betty recalls it was a tough decision to retire but said, 'I am getting older now, and want to be able to enjoy these upcoming years while I am healthy and can do what I want to do without any limitations.' Betty is excited to start this new chapter in her life; however, leaves PanaVise and her friends with a heavy heart as she has enjoyed the relationships built while working at PanaVise for the last three years. PanaVise Products will definitely miss her professionalism in customer service, but mostly her great personality.

| Amado Puga started his journey with PanaVise Products on February 14, 1979 as a young enthusiastic factory worker. Through hard work and dedication over the last 30 years, Amado has advanced to his current position of Plant Forman-Supervisor of PanaVise. "It's been thirty years, but it feels like 3 years as the time has passed so quickly, and that is probably because I really like what I do," Amado recently stated.
Amado has been with PanaVise through many positive changes including new innovative product launches, a move to Reno from Southern California and then a move to the new corporate headquarters in South Reno in 1997. When PanaVise relocated to Reno, Amado embraced the opportunity to raise his five children in the Truckee Meadows, "It was an easy decision when deciding where we wanted to raise our children and with all of the positive benefits of working for PanaVise already, I never gave it a second thought."
Amado's favorite part about working at PanaVise is working with Owner and President, Gary Richter. Amado explains, "It's easy to work here for thirty years when you work for someone like Gary; he really cares about the employees and is very generous."
"Amado is right. It seems like just yesterday, when this bright eyed and ambitious teen aged kid came to PanaVise and asked me to hire him; not 30 years ago," explained PanaVise President, Gary Richter. "We've been through a lot together. Amado's knowledge of our products and their production, I sometimes think is better than mine. His loyalty and trust is second to none. I wish I had 30 Amado's working for PanaVise instead of just 1!"
