Review on 📷 Universal Stylish Metal Wall Mount Bracket for Ring, eufy, Wyze, Arlo Cameras and VR Rift Sensor: Enhance Security with KIWI design (White, 1 Pack) by Austin Olson

This is a good mount for security cameras but has some design/usability issues. The tension of the gimbal that positions your camera depends solely on a main pole tube stretched by an aluminum base cover over a plastic base plate. When your bottom cover comes off, you lose tension on the pivot ball and your camera mount position shifts due to gravity. The main problem is that the bottom plate is plastic and if you set it too low the base will sag inward and the bottom cap will not thread. fully to ensure full tension of the tub core. I had to back out the mounting screws a full turn, which actually allowed the bottom cover to screw more gently and deeper onto the platter. The combination of plastic and aluminum can cause the lid to loosen and fall off over time. If the base plate was aluminum as the bottom cover, then the metal-to-metal contact would be stronger. The base cap is difficult to tighten as it has no knurling or indexing, allowing you to apply enough finger pressure to properly tighten the tubular core to keep the ball joint snug. The last problem is the tapered shape of the cone of the stop wheel, there would be more knurled surface then it would be easier to tighten the camera better. The hinge ball is aluminum which is great for attaching the camera as the magnet attracts or repels the camera body at a different location than the screw hole on the back. camera center. You have to fight against the strong magnetic field of the steel screw to align the camera's screw hole. This problem does not exist with this aluminum screw. Aluminum also doesn't rust, which is the main benefit of an aluminum mount over cheaper mounts that are mostly plastic. This mount is longer than most, allowing more clearance from the structure it is mounted on. It also offers more flexibility with a wider range of angles for camera positioning. If they hadn't skimped on the plastic bottom it would have been 5 stars.
