Covers for the iPad
iTabNav has made its reputation by selling accessories to use an iPad tablet for navigation. This retailer offers a whole range of accessories from the protection of the tablet to its power supply, including satellite communication solutions. Today, iTabNav's catalog includes the entire range of Andres Industries products. This German manufacturer offers aiShell waterproof cases for iPad. Once inside, the tablet is not afraid of water (IP67), nor of shocks (the shell resists 26 falls of 1.22m on concrete!). The aiShells allow a fast and reliable fixation of the tablet, and its maintenance in charge via a waterproof cable.
Shells also for Microsoft
Appeared in 2020, the new GoShells from the same manufacturer can accommodate the Microsoft Surface Go tablet. The interest of this tablet lies in its Windows 10 operating system that accepts office software, but also those of navigation. One will thus be able to pro?ter the regatta software Adrena or OpenCPN or even TimeZero on his tablet in his cockpit. Racing enthusiasts will appreciate..
Modular accessories
The shells, regardless of the tablet, are always built with the same seriousness. The new models include notches around the shell to ?x accessories. Note, for example, the side handle that offers more comfort for holding the tablet (more natural wrist position) and allows the tablet to be carried like a small satchel. We will also note the non-slip pads on the edge that prevent the tablet from sliding when leaning against a wall. The new side clip will also come in handy for ?xing a wrist strap or securing the tablet with a garrote. All of these options can be easily spread around the shell.
An adjustable sunshade
To facilitate reading in the sun, iTabNav has been offering a sunshield for several years. Andres has improved it by offering now a model with a continuous angle adjustment (the previous one had 3 adjustment positions). When folded back against the screen, this hood also acts as an of?ce of protection. The use of a sunshield eliminates re?ets and facilitates outdoor reading, but also reduces the brightness of the screen and thus gains battery life.
A detachable cable
In addition to the waterproof cable mentioned above, Andres also thought of making a very practical cradle with a waterproof power supply, with a special tip. But how can you charge your iPad if this cradle is left outside near the bar and you need it in the cabin? A small detachable cable that connects to this connector is now available.
Rigorous and serious construction
These are details, but these accessories change the life of the user. Of course without changing the DNA of this case: resistant and waterproof. And strong point of the brand, many of these accessories are backwards compatible. There are also spare parts such as the ?lm of the screen even if iTabNav indicates that very few customers use it, a sign of the great durability of these products.
