Anyone recently installed the Blink Outdoor camera system?

They only seem to supply these really tiny screws for their mounting brackets and no wall plugs so obviously only ideal to be mounted onto a non masonry surface. Fine for one of the cameras but I want to mount the other one onto a brick wall. Have you done the same and did you have to use different screws and wall plugs or get a better third party mount?

    I fitted a block of wood to the wall with a big screw and plug then screwed the camera to that. There's no reason why you can't use longer screws and wall plugs with the Blink bracket though.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.
