BavarianSimTec PitPower MagLock

Your Phone. In the Cockpit. Magnetically.

PitPower MagLock on rig with iPhone mounted

The PitPower MagLock is a premium MagSafe-compatible phone mount engineered specifically for sim racing rigs. Mount your iPhone magnetically in seconds, power it at 65W via the included fast charger, and use it as a dedicated race dashboard, pit wall display, or coaching tool — all without cables trailing across your cockpit. Built on BavarianSimTec's aluminium MagicArm system, it positions precisely and stays put under the most intense sessions.

Built for the Rig.

PitPower MagLock mounted on sim rig without phone

The MagicArm attaches directly to standard aluminium extrusion profiles via the included M8 T-Nut — the same profiles found on virtually every modern sim rig. The 17mm ball head gives you full 360° rotation to dial in exactly the right angle, height, and distance for your line of sight. Once set, it locks solid. No wobble, no creep, no slipping during high-torque moments.

FAQs About this product

Which iPhones are compatible with PitPower MagLock?

PitPower MagLock uses the MagSafe standard and is compatible with iPhone 12 and all newer models including iPhone 13, 14, 15, and 16 series. Older iPhones without built-in MagSafe are not natively compatible. Android phones are not supported as MagSafe is an Apple standard.

Does the charger work in Australia?

Yes — the included 65W QC3.0 charger comes with interchangeable plugs including EU, US, and UK adapters. For Australia you'll need a simple AU/NZ travel adapter plug which is widely available and inexpensive, or you can use your own Australian USB-C charger with the included braided USB-C cable.

Will my phone stay attached during force feedback vibrations?

Yes — MagSafe provides a strong magnetic hold that is more than sufficient for sim racing. The MagicArm also locks the mount position solidly once adjusted, so the entire assembly stays rigid. The combination of MagSafe magnetic attachment and the locked MagicArm means your phone won't move even under high force feedback intensity.

What can I use my phone for on the rig?

Popular uses include running a race dashboard app, displaying pit strategy or timing data, running the BavarianSimTec PitStopApp, watching coaching videos between sessions, running a lap timer or delta app, monitoring Discord or TeamSpeak during team races, or simply keeping your phone charged and accessible without cables running across the rig.

Does it work with a phone case?

It depends on the case. MagSafe works through MagSafe-compatible cases, which include Apple's own cases and most cases specifically labelled as MagSafe compatible. Thick non-MagSafe cases may reduce or block the magnetic connection. We recommend using a MagSafe-compatible case or no case for the best attachment strength.

How does it attach to my rig?

The MagicArm connects to your rig via the included 1/4" to M8 aluminium adapter and M8 T-Nut, which slots into standard aluminium extrusion profiles found on virtually all sim rigs. Once inserted and tightened, the MagicArm provides 360° of articulation to position your phone at exactly the right angle and height.

What is the difference between PitPower MagLock and PitPower AutoGrip?

PitPower MagLock uses Apple's MagSafe magnetic standard and is designed exclusively for iPhone 12 and newer. PitPower AutoGrip uses a spring-loaded mechanical grip and is compatible with virtually any smartphone regardless of brand or model. If you use an iPhone, either will work — MagLock gives a cleaner, cable-free snap-on experience. If you use Android or an older iPhone, AutoGrip is the right choice.

How long does shipping to Australia take?

PitPower MagLock ships directly from our warehouse on the Gold Coast, QLD. For in-stock orders, standard shipping typically takes 2–5 business days within Australia. Express options are available at checkout.
