takewellProtective Cover for Garmin Varia RTL515 (Cover + Lanyard), Weights Only 0.27 Ounces, Ultra-Thin Design Allows Smooth GPS Signals, Effective Heat Dissipation. Black, 1 pcs.

This case looks sleek and professional when installed. It works perfectly for its intended purpose, which is to provide a tether so that if the mount your Varia radar is connected to fails, it stays hanging on your bike and does not fall to the ground and break. The white color greatly increases daytime visibility, too. It's amazing how much more easily noticeable the device is attached to your bike with the white case on than the original black. I do wish that the case was reflective so that it could double as a reflector at night to accompany your tail light, since some states require a rear reflector in addition to a light. The fit is secure and a perfect match for the Varia, with openings in all the right places for the light to be visible from both the rear and the side, and for the radar to work properly. If the case interferes with the radar range, it is very minimal to the point of not being noticeable. I ride with a helmet mirror and when the radar alerts me and I look in my mirror the approaching vehicles are no larger than before I installed the case, meaning they are about the same distance behind me when the radar first detects them as they were before I installed the case. This product looks great and does its job. Highly recommended.

The cover adds a leash and device security. The Varia radar mounting system seems a bit unstable but combined with the cover/leash I’m not worried about losing the $200 radar on the side of the road and the radar works well with the cover in place. I would recommend this item.

I think that the Garmin Radars should come with a lanyard for a security attachment to the bike. This device fills that missed design point. Its plastic material could be of heavier design for strength. The Garmin fits into it perfectly. I am very happy with this purchase, hopefully it will hold up with use.

I’ve been using Garmin’s Varia radar taillight for about 18 months. It works so well, that I really don’t want to ride without it! This case & lanyard just adds more peace of mind that the Varia won’t be lost on a bit of rough road or trail in the middle of nowhere.Installation is (literally) a snap, the case is barely noticeable, and the lanyard loops easily through my saddle rails.Giving it 4 stars only because the button to turn the light on/off is a little harder to press now than it is w/o the case. But overall, this is a minor issue exacerbated by the fact that I wear full-finger gloves and have a small saddle bag mounted directly above the light - so getting to the button isn’t as easy as it might be for others.

Very good case to protect my Garmin radar camera.......I highly recommend it !!

I purchased the Varia radar unit about two years ago. Love it, and wouldn’t ride without it. But I’ve always been concerned about the security of the Garmin mount using an O ring to attach the mount to the seat post. I Searched high and low to find something better, but haven’t been able to find anything that fits my “D” shaped seat post. Alternatively, In lieu of a better mount I’ve been searching for a way to secure the unit.Finally, I found this product! It checks all the boxes. It provides security, knowing that if the mount fails the unit will be saved by the tether. Performance does not seem to be affected. The tether attaches the unit to the saddle rails. Just be sure to let it dangle before you attach the unit to the mount. You want to make sure it doesn’t hang so low that it gets caught in the wheel should it fall off.A very small amount to pay for the piece of mind knowing that your $200 radar unit won’t be lost on a ride.

It snaps in place on the radar, and so far seems to be a nice snug fit. I don't imagine that I will accidently lose this. This ask about a adhesion rating, fortunately there is no glue to worry about.

Muy Buen Producto Encaja Súper Bien Lo Recomiendo Y Rápida Entrega. Gracias.

Fits my Varia like a glove. This has great value in terms of peace of mind at a good price.

Bueno

Parfait s'adapte très bien à mon Varia 715

semble ok avec une sécurité de plus concernant le lastique de protection.

You don't need one until you do. After seeing an ad for a found Varia Radar, I thought a tether might be a good idea. I already have one on my Wahoo Roam. I once had my GPS bounce out of my out front mount due to the screws loosening in the mount. If I hadn't had a tether, the GPS would have been thrown off the front of my bike. My seatpost mount for the Radar seems pretty solid, but so did the GPS mount. Although the cover is advertised as being for the RTL515, it also fits the older version that I have, the 510. Probably a good security measure as well as more difficult to steal while you're having a coffee. The cover fits snugly and I have it tethered to the seat rail.
