How to Mount The Xiaomi Xiaofang to a Wall?

No on 13/10/2017 - 17:13

Hey,

I think I may have gone a bit overboard with the Xiaofang cameras. Somehow I ended up with 5 of them!

I want to mount one above my front door, its well covered so the weather shouldn't be a problem but I can't see a good way to mount it to the wall.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

    Nothing fancy, my garage is right next to my front door and I can run the wire through to a power outlet in there.

  20Ah xiaomi power brick should sort that problem out.

  Perfect, thanks. Is there some sort of service where I can pay someone to print it for me?

    I printed mine in silver they look & work great! Officeworks do 3d Priting but it works out $12 an hour.
    How many brackets are you chasing?

Its magnetic. Just screw an iron plate on the wall.
