UPDATE 24 Apr 2023:I've added a (slightly larger) version for the TP-Link Tapo C225 camera - I don't have this camera myself, but thanks go out to fellow Thingiverse user @phagosome who has printed it and confirmed that it works. The TP-Link Tapo C200 is a decent quality PTZ camera for a good price ( in my humble opinion). However, in order for it to fully utilise its range of motion you really need to mount it upside down. It comes with a bracket for ceiling mounting, but I really didn't want to drill holes in the ceiling or have to solve the problem of running power to it. Also, once you mount it on the ceiling, it's kind of permanent. ...so, I designed this stand to mount the camera, incorporating the provided "twist-lock" mounting bracket that comes with the camera. I used OnShape for the design process. It's pretty simple to print in one piece - just print it laying on its "spine" as shown in the photos. You may want to print with a brim just to give it a better chance of layer adhesion (I did, as can be seen in the photos). Once it's printed, use a couple of M3 screws to attach the twist-lock bracket to the stand, and then put the camera on. You should find that the power socket lines up exactly with the spacing at the back, and you can just plug it in. There are a couple of grooves to keep the cable tidy at the back. Now you can put it pretty much anywhere, and move it somewhere else if it doesn't work out, or you decide that you want to monitor another area. That's it! Enjoy!

If you have a better printer than me you probably don't need to worry about that. Category: Camera
