No-Drill Pole & Railing Mount for Blink Outdoor 4

A simple, no-drill solution to mount a Blink Outdoor 4 camera on round poles, square posts, balcony railings, or downpipes — anywhere you don't want to (or can't) drill into the wall.

The bracket reuses the original Blink mount that ships with the camera, so you don't lose the magnetic ball-joint articulation. The rear plate carries two slots for a standard stainless steel band clamp (hose-style strap), which pulls the bracket tight against the support surface.

What you need

• 1× Blink Outdoor 4 with its original mount
• 1× stainless steel band clamp, recommended width 12 mm, length sized to your pole diameter + ~5 cm margin. A worm-drive hose clamp works too, though a band clamp gives a cleaner finish.
• 2× M3x8 nuts & bolts to attach the base with the clamp
• Optional: 1× M3x16 in the middle of the base in order to reinforce the middle stem
• Optional: a strip of rubber or EPDM between bracket and pole to improve grip and prevent slipping on painted surfaces.

Print settings

• Material: PETG or ASA recommended for outdoor use. PLA will warp in summer sun and become brittle over time — not recommended for permanent outdoor installation.
• Orientation: plate vertical, with the flat face against the build plate. This puts the layer lines perpendicular to the strap tension, which is where you want them.
• Walls: 4 perimeters
• Infill: 15 gyroid
• Supports: as little in the v-shape
• Estimated print time: 1 hours and 6 minutes

Assembly
