How can I mount this at a location beyond 25ft?

Extend the wire with at least the same guage as the one it comes with. Crimp your splice.

Jason, you can safely add wire to a full length of 100 feet if neccesary. The signal is based on continuity, not any type of milli volts. Just make sure that you solder the connections and insulate them. Use silver solder.

You simply splice in some sprinkler wire to add the length/distance you need. Use waterproof wire nuts for sprinkler systems. You may put the splice in a waterproof electrical box if you like. Or in my case,.......I mounted this near a valve box and tied into the existing valve wire to hook up in the sprinkler controller. (Had two extra wires on the existing valve wires to tie into.) Hope this helps.

You can mount it as high as you want as long as the power connection exist.

LOL Actually I am working on mounting it right now. It depends on the distance. If it's just a couple hundred feet or less, it will work. With the testing I have done so far, before permanently mounting it, it will go 200 ft. and through my block house. There are two rock terraces in front of my house that are keeping it from going further though, so I am mounting it higher off of the ground and I will see if that works.

You would have to provide your own anchors and screws that can fit through the holes on the mount. Use a mason bit slightly smaller than the anchor to mount it.

I mounted it on a 6' fence post. But, I am only 5 miles from downtown. Still, it was way better than the $50 antenna I had. I've read others get good reception from 25 miles out. Hopefully you don't live in a low area/valley and not have good line-of-sight to a tower. It works great for me. Heavy-duty hardware as I said in my review. Pretty decent product.

I can't answer that because I place the item on my back outside wall next to my door. One thing that I can say is about 25ft it didn't work, so my advice to you is go to a home center a buy a good one. Talk to a home center associate about what you are looking for, otherwise you will be spending money for nothing. My opinion.

I don't think it sticks out more than 5-6 inches.. Unless that path's frequented by a lot of people, you should be ok mounting it!

There are low voltage boxes that can be installed fairly easily. Search low voltage mounting brackets or box and you'll find what you need.

Yes, physically possible...but I would not mount higher than what I ended up mounting it at - about 4.5'. It will be way too steep at 5'+...

The Recommended Distance in between bars is 25 in - 30 in for optimal mounting

I have mine mounted to the wall in the garage and it is about 2 feet (24") off the ground.

I have used the 12 foot horizontal galvanized posts that you would use for a chain link fence (2), they are cheaper than the "antenna mounts". I used a post hole digger to bury the bottom down 18" or so, concrete optional, and braced near the top of the house. I have a ranch house, so you may need to adjust for a taller structure.

yes...just as long as the power supply leads are strong enough to carry the voltage that far...depending on the distance between the supply and the light...25 ft should be ok..

This is not for outside, unless you put it in a garage or barn. It works within 2000 feet .

I mounted mine to an octagon box. Anyone at Home Depot could help you out with this.

FYI, the other people who have answered are correct - you'll want to cut a board and use it to mount. It mounts very easily from that point and you will be happy with the result!
