I made a bracket for the Vagabond Mini. I used a Manfrotto Super Clamp I had laying around, a piece of aluminum angle, a few pieces of aluminum and turned a piece of 5/8 round aluminum and a 1/4-20 set screw. It took me about 40 min. to cut and assemble it. It is very sturdy and the Super Clamp holds great. I use a few pieces of weather stripping to cushion the battery pack against the aluminum assembly. I had to remember to cut out a few packet at the bottom of the angle aluminum to allow air flow to cool the pack to avoid over heating.
