First off, these mounts are *stupid easy* to install. Peel, stick, wait 12 hours, and slide your Blink camera in. No drilling, no screws—just clean surfaces and patience. The plastic feels sturdy, and the little hook at the bottom is genius for managing wires.
But here’s the catch: the adhesive is hit or miss. Indoors? Rock solid. My Blink Mini 2 hasn’t budged in weeks. Outdoors? Disaster. One mount lasted two days before my camera took a nosedive (thankfully onto grass). The adhesive feels like bargain-bin stuff, not the promised HBV strength.
Pro tip: If you’re mounting outdoors, skip the included adhesive entirely. I epoxy-glued one to my siding (with painter’s tape for support overnight), and it’s now bulletproof. Also, the camera slides in loosely—I wedged a trimmed plastic lid behind it for a snug fit. Annoying? Yes. Effective? Absolutely.
Final verdict: Great for *temporary* indoor use or if you’re willing to DIY. For permanent outdoor setups, look elsewhere or break out the epoxy.
