horrible mounting to put under a counter. My head does twist that way, so I am thinking of double stick tape, but how much heat would this generate?

You are right about the mounting and I always use a screw gun to put them up but I don't feel that they generate enough heat to reject the tape ides

I can't tell you exactly how much heat the light generates, but I always find it cool to the touch. I use mine as a grow light, and too much heat would not be good - no adverse affects so far. I think you'll be fine with a heavy-duty mounting tape, but even one screw would help for stability.

Roselyne, you've had these up for going on 6 months now - how has the double-stick taped fared? And did you use 3M Command strips (and how many?)

We managed to get the mounting in - using a power drill with a screwdriver bit. I don't think the double stick tape would last long... They do put out a bit of heat, and gravity is against you!

The lights do not generate that much heat. Double sided tape should be fine.

actually the mount is very easy-it can go two different ways-just screw the brackets under the cupboard-then attach by sliding on-no heat generated-great light-although I switched out the bulbs to a white color that cost almost as much as the fixture

I would guess you can't. So far, mine (even in 114 degree weather) have held the board exactly where I placed it. If I were to take it down, I would probably buy new 3M Scotch Mounting Tape (which can be found here on Amazon). It's pretty inexpensive and would allow for a nice secure mount. The board continues to be a great investment for the price.

I have only placed something really hot on it one time but grabbed a mat to put under it. For that short time it didn't hurt it but I always put a mat under my hot items on my counters also. But very easy to do. I really like mine but I needed the extra space.

This item probably gets too hot to the touch to be mounted in such a way. The idea of these things is that it gradually heats the entire room it is in over time (it must be on for a few hours before it becomes effective). So in theory it wouldn't matter where in the room you mounted it the heat would be even everywhere. But supposedly it isn't ideal to mount them in "drafty" parts of the room such as on exterior walls or below windows because the cold drafty air doesn't allow the unit time to heat up the air around it before it gets blown away by the draft.

I'm pretty sure you would not be able to mount it. Its a countertop unit only.

I would never recommend mounting anything to an appliance. this has 2 separate mounts that the legs can slide in and out of. we just use one mount, under a cabinet. When we need to move it we just use it as a stand where ever.

Peel off the tape or stick the tape to the magnets and stick them on the back of the board. I didn't use mine because it wouldn't hold. You may want to get stronger magnets because they're weak and don't stick on the fridge good. I hung mine.

I don't think that would work too well. It is flat on the back and requires two screws to mount it. It wouldn't be very secure with mounting tape.

You could use heavy duty Velcro but when you try to adjust settings it might wiggle around it depends on how you mounted it. Be sure to mount the Velcro to the bracket not on the unit. Another way you could do it, is use 250 lb double sided tape again on the mounting mounting bracket. The big issue is where you mount it.

I would not recommend this be under a counter. It produces quite a bit of heat, and has a difficult time maintaining temp if ambient temp raises.

I'd put a pot holder between anything hot and the counter top. It's hard plastic and not metal

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 have no clue! I couldn't figure out how to mount it, so I just used double sided tape.

That is exactly what I did. BUT, it must be mounted in a dry, well-ventilated location. I would NOT recommend mounting it under the hood or anywhere where it could be exposed to water or humidity. I mounted mine on the inside wall behind the cabin. Keep in mind also that if the walls sweat, be careful that any power cables or wires attached to it do not allow a path for water droplets to travel down the wire to the unit. I once had a single drop of water ride down a power cable and drop into the vents. There was some crackling sounds and the inverter wouldn't drive anything like fans for about a day until it dried out. It's a tough little inverter that has forgiven me for a ton of stupid stuff, but I wouldn't recommend pushing your luck. Great little inverter. Won't drive a microwave oven since it's a modified sine unit, but it works great for my laptop, lights, TV, Xbox, refrigerator, alarm clock, coffee maker, coffee cup warmer, iPhone charger, power drill, fans...

I put mine under counter and mounted tap to counter. Used a small can of the foam insulation to seal the hole on top of fridge...no problems. Technically, this is a free standing model but I did not want to pay the extra money for a true under counter model. I have decent ventilation space under counter and no problems so far

This isn't made for under counter as there's no front venting. I did buy it to use under my counter, but it's not tall enough. There was way too much space between top of cooler & counter & it looked ridiculous.

I don't think it should be mounted under a cabinet. The unit gets pretty hot and there wouldn't be enough airflow. Maybe with a specially designed mount that lets it hang down a few inches from the cabinet base.
