XYO XY4+ Sentinel Holders

thingiverse

I designed this mount to keep the XY4+ Sentinels easily accessible, allowing for quick changes without relying on strings or keychains. The holder fits the sentinels snugly but not too tightly, and the locking post secures them in place once locked. Before mounting one of these holders, test the lock's strength to ensure it doesn't require excessive force to remove the XY4+ beacon. Two additional designs were added: one that utilizes a drywall screw for secure attachment, and another that uses zip ties for easy installation. If desired, scale down the design to achieve a tighter hold on the beacons. A starting point of 98% scaling is recommended. A newer version was created with two screws and a protective cover, enabling outdoor mounting in areas suitable for 3/4" to 1" drywall screws. The bottom of this cover features a small drainage hole, allowing water to escape if it enters the holder. Please note that the cover fits tightly, so ensure secure attachment before attempting installation or removal. The cover can also be used as a standalone mount by drilling two holes in its wings and securing the sentinel with double-sided tape. Another design was added for attaching a 19 mm wide strap, allowing users to wear it like a watch or attach it to their pets' collars.
