Does anyone have a favorite iPad case that fits the Magtek iDynamo (the lightning port swiper)? This is for the iPad Pro - both sizes. Thanks in advance for any recommendations!
Iād love to know too, Jess. Iāve yet to find one that works great
Which Magtek iDynamo? Magtek sells the ācā version Look at this model for a case.

*fits: Air, Air 2, Mini, Mini 2 and Mini 3
Thanks David. Itās the iDynamo (https://www.magtek.com/product/idynamo) and for a Pro.
Tiffany - weāre heading to Best Buy today with a swiper. Weāll let you know what we find!
oops! Ignore my last comment, David! Just noticed you were a Vin65ers! 
Are there a lot of customers using that case? Any reported problems? Weāve been using the ID TECH UniMag II and itās not that reliableā¦ and doesnāt fit well with any of the cases. I like the look of it. Thanks!
@tpham I know we like it better than the non-case version as it is sturdier and can attach to a stand. Not sure on how many have ordered them but feel it is a better product. Jeff Cole at Change Merchant Solutions can fill you in on customer feedback with who has ordered them and in use today. Need more community input on the experience.

Hey @tpham, the cDynamo was game-changer. Itās a bit expensive but itās a case and a swiper together. The case is very well put together and even has some VESA mounts on the back. It comes in most sizes (notably missing is iPad mini 4 and iPad pro).
Thanks @Zach! We have a few mini 4 and a few Air 2. I like it, looks more durable. They are expensive, but going to see if the āfolksā will go for itā¦

We have both the cDynamo and the iDynamo on iPad Air2ās.
I highly recommend the cDynamo. I honestly canāt imagine the iDynamo standing up to the abuse of a busy saturday at the bar.
Like Zach said, they arenāt cheap, but theyāre well worth it.

I am very interested in hearing what Jeff says!
We use the windfall stand from Heckler Designs. It runs $130, and is compatible with the Magtek iDynamo.
@JKing @tpham @ElJefe Phil from CMS says this is still 3 months away from getting into CMS/Vin65 hands for development.

I use that stand too, itās really great.
Agreed, we love our CDynamo. They are also selling a stand and hand strap to fit them now. Again, not cheap but Iām really considering it. According to Phil at CMS, the stand does need to be mounted but it can mount via screws or an incredibly strong adhesive pad that is removable. Same for attaching the strap to the CDynamo case. They are sold separately.
I have been trying for ages to find a good stand for the cDynamo. I finally found these brackets on eBay, and had a local woodworker create some stands with felt bottoms. Theyāre super sturdy, and fit into our decor really nicely.
