Review on OLAIKE Adjustable Outdoor Compatible Battery Security & Surveillance by Andrew Spainhour

OLAIKE Smart Home wall mount - good design. Wide wings make it easy to loosen and tighten the ball socket to give you control over camera angles for the best coverage. It is best to screw the camera onto the ball socket before mounting it on the bracket. Otherwise the small knurled locking ring will be too narrow to grab and finger tighten. Finally, screw back onto the bracket and tighten the wings to final position. These mounts are all aluminum, very light and thin compared to my other mounts. The white paint is very thin and easily scratched with a drill or screwdriver as I scratched another and had to apply White Out to hide the scratched surface. Have some white or white enamel to touch up scratches. The 3 mounting holes all need 3 screws to be stable, otherwise the bracket will wobble with only 2 screws. It is better to pre-drill pilot holes and hand-tighten with a screwdriver. Otherwise the soft aluminum screws will break when drilling. While the wide ball joint tension wings have a great design compared to other brands, the quality of the material is mediocre at best. But once the camera is in place it's fairly reliable until you need to detach it to charge or reposition the camera. If only the quality of the material was better and the paintwork more durable, I think it could get a top rating.
