Question about TP-Link Tapo C425
Does the magnet hold really well and there is no possibility if the camera is mounted outside in a place with a lot of wind?

While the Tapo C425 magnet is strong and allows secure attachment to metal surfaces, there are some limitations and recommendations for mounting, especially in windy or weather-exposed areas.
- Magnetic mounting is the primary recommended installation method, but it can become unstable in high winds or inclement weather.
- To increase stability, wall mounting with screws can be used. The Tapo C425 is compatible with standard 1/4" 20UNC threads wall mount brackets, which must be purchased separately.
- It is recommended to mount the camera at a height of 2-3 metres to optimise performance and reduce false alarms. However, in windy or weather-exposed areas, additional security measures such as wall mounting should be considered.
To summarise: Whilst the magnet of the Tapo C425 holds well, it is advisable to take additional securing measures in windy or weather exposed areas to ensure the stability of the camera.
