Works great but could use a better mount

I recently installed a brand new ring system and installed 3 cameras with it. Luckily Ring let you know beforehand that they have solar panel connectors so I was able to mount them high up so nobody could grab them and either steal or damage them. They're also tall enough that replacing the batteries would be a pain in the back. I have purchased and installed these panels and when I check the health of my camera and battery it is almost always at 100%. The lowest I had was 96% first thing in the morning before sunrise. They charge well even in our very cloudy northwest weather. The only thing I don't like about them is the bindings. They are very limited in that they can only be set to 90 degrees with anything. The only variable is the movement of the panel itself, which isn't much. Bindings should be 4-6 inches longer with a knee in the middle. I had to get really creative to put them in the right places. In addition to the mounts, these are excellent solar panels.
