— A customer’s experience working with LINTECH and what other fleet operators can learn from it
Managing a fleet of fuel tankers is already a challenging task. Between compliance requirements, driver safety, and daily operations, every upgrade to the vehicle cabin must be carefully planned. Earlier this year, our company decided to equip several trucks with tablets to improve route management and fuel delivery documentation.
That decision led us into an unexpected dilemma:
What tablet holder could survive the vibration, heat, and long working hours inside a fuel-tanker truck?
This blog is about how we found the right solution—and the supplier who helped us get there.
Why We Needed Something Better Than a Basic Tablet Mount
Our drivers often work long routes under hot weather, and the trucks are constantly vibrating. Cheap suction-cup holders simply don’t work in this environment. They fall off, loosen, or crack under heat.
We needed something durable, industrial-grade, and most importantly, safe.
At that point, I started contacting several suppliers, including LINTECH. What stood out immediately was how differently they handled my inquiry compared with others.
First Contact with LINTECH: A Supplier Who Actually Asked Questions
Most suppliers simply sent catalogs.
LINTECH did something better—they asked questions first.
They wanted to know:
-
What trucks we were using
-
Where the drivers preferred the tablet to be mounted
-
How long the devices would operate daily
-
Whether the cabin environment involved heat, sunlight, or strong vibration
This may sound simple, but it made me feel they were trying to avoid future problems, not just make a sale.
Within less than 2 hours, they sent me three carefully chosen options, each explained with pros and cons. They even told me directly why suction mounts were not suitable for fuel tankers—something no other supplier mentioned.
This honesty already put LINTECH ahead of the others.
The Decision: Choosing a Metal Holder That Balanced Durability and Cost
Among the options, one model stood out:
a metal-and-nylon composite holder with a reinforced ball joint.
It wasn’t the most expensive, nor the cheapest—just the most reasonable for our environment.
So we decided to start with six units for testing across five trucks.
As any fleet manager knows, testing is essential before rolling out equipment to dozens or hundreds of vehicles.
LINTECH handled the order very efficiently, and the next phase of the project began.
Hands-On Testing: Smooth Installation and Stable Performance
When the shipment arrived, our team began installation.
We also added our own enhancements:
-
extra DC plugs
-
USB-C adapters
-
heat-shrink tubing to seal the converter
LINTECH’s recommendations matched our actual field experience. The holders stayed firm during vibration, and the converter delivered stable output.
We reported back to LINTECH, and they followed up—not to push a bigger order, but to make sure everything performed as expected.
That’s rare in this industry.
What Other Fleet Operators Can Learn from This Experience
After working with LINTECH through the entire process, here are the key takeaways:
1. A supplier who asks questions is better than one who pushes products
They helped us avoid bad choices, especially with mounts that would fail under heat.
2. Testing small batches is always the smart approach
The six-unit trial helped us validate the solution before considering a fleet-wide rollout.
3. Honest advice saves money and prevents downtime
LINTECH never tried to upsell us. They simply provided what worked.
4. Technical support matters more than price
In fleet operations, the right installation guidance is worth far more than a small discount.
Would I Recommend LINTECH?
Yes—because they behaved like a partner, not just a supplier.
They responded quickly, explained things clearly, and provided reliable product advice. Most importantly, they helped us avoid costly mistakes by recommending only what would truly work for our fuel-tanker environment.
For any fleet operator considering tablet mounts, backup cameras, DVR systems, monitors, or wiring accessories, I can confidently say that working with a supplier like LINTECH makes the entire process smoother and more predictable.
We are now preparing to expand the system to more vehicles, and LINTECH will remain our first choice during the next stage of deployment.
