Trying hard to keep the cost down. The magnets themselves are spendy. Trying
to find a chinese source I can trust.

+1 If the price is right, I have a couple places for these.
Would like to see mounting configurations.

Very cool. I have looked into mag mounts before but they get expensive fast.

We have used something similar for 12yrs on top of a water tank that
supports our pipe mounts
that hold a MTOW-3P with one 450AP center and 2 outer fsk900 integrated
panels. The center had a 900fsk but
we removed it to insert the new 450iAP 900 panel. There are 4 of those pipe
mounts on that tank and the other
2 mounts hold a MTOW-3P with 2 pmp450 3.65 AP panels
One of our climbers actually tested the pipes to see if they were still
holding strong so he supported himself from the mount while staying tied
off to the center mast on the tank.
We also made a single pole mast with 2 of the smaller magnets that would
mount to red iron or most flat metal surface.
We used it for holding the motorola WLAN CAN which weighed about 65lbs
after being mounted and our tech was able to stand on top of the mount
without it moving.
Those crazy Magnets LOL

Sorry about the lousy audio.� This shows testing of a prototype mag
mount accessory to our tower mounts.
I think I can improve on this but it starts to cut loose at about 100-120
lbs of force.� So I would not rate it over 50 lbs.
If there were 4 of these on one of our P mounts you could probably safely
mount a 100-200 lb antenna on it.�
