Cam Pan v3 - Ceiling/Eve/Soffit/Overhead/Magnetic Mount

I had an outdoor cam under an eave. Wanted to upgrade it to the new pan cam v3. Then realized it wouldn’t work with the magnetic mount already there. I thought about attaching a steel plate to the v3 so it would, but had issues with keeping the connection uncovered so I could take it down, if needed. So I came up with another solution that’s cheap and easy. I got an outlet cover for a cable connection and mounted the cam with its screw and a fender washer. Then mounted to cover plate to the eave. I can’t take it down easily, but the solution is very cheap and easy. Total cost is maybe $2…

I’m adding some pics. Hope it helps someone.
