Would a heavy duty adhesive (i.e. 3M Heavy Duty Mounting Tape) work in lieu of screws?

I think it would. If I had to guess. The light strips are very lightweight.

Yes. I used a similar double sided 3M adhesive and when I ran out of that I used the 3M picture hanging system that involves Velcro. The advantage to the picture hanging system is the adhesive can be peeled off and the Velcro allows for adjusting the placement. I's all worked for over a month now without problem.

The product is bundled with adhesive tape and screws so the answer to your question is yes. I like 3M VHB tape if you want a stronger tape (not bundled) and cannot use the screws. However, I do not like this product overall because the LED back-lights are not bright enough.

Yes, I've tried that but it is too heavy to hold so it's best to use the screws.

Mine is installed on the wall, but you might try that spongy double-sided tape - something like this: 3M Scotch Heavy Duty Mounting Tape, 1-Inch by 125-Inch (314) holds up to 5 lbs.

I think it would be better to use shorter screws than Velcro (even heavy duty).

This does not have an adhesive side for directly applying to windows - the most common method is to stretch it over some sort of frame and mount the whole assembly.Thanks!

No, I used short screws (not included) for my application. There are holes for this method of installation but a weather resistant adhesive should work as well

I used 3m double sided tape. You can also use a small screw as there is a mounting hole on the back of the unit.

If you can get the adhesive to stick, it will work. I couldn't get the adhesive to stay.

If it can be mounted with adhesive tape, but the ideal would be mounted with screws.

Yes. Depending on the thickness of the surface that it sits, use the appropriate length of screw. I'ts heavy, but still needs anchoring.

Yes mounting tape would work, just keep in mind when placing the tape that you can access the battery compartment.

Depends on mounting method you adopt. Thru bolts with adhesive will be permanent.

Sure, velcro with automotive quality 3M tape will work. The unit doesn't weigh much

The answer to this question totally depends on what kind of wall you're securing it to. My walls are pretty thick and a 1/2 or 1 inch screw will do just fine securing something heavy, but if you have flimsy drywall, you'll need longer screws and anchors.

It's not an option "out of the box", but certainly possible. I wouldn't trust tape, but 2 screws could do the job. I uploaded a picture of the back for you.
