Can you mount this on the lid of a hat (drilling through the lid) with the existing mounts included? If not, anyone know of any hat mounts that would work with this?

If you made your own base mount(a Bolt) and drilled a hole, yes it would work. it also comes with a velcro strap.

Don't order it, find another one. If you actually receive it's apparently junk. I unfortunately ordered one and 12 days later it says it's one month away.

I think one would work if you can screw it to a hard hat. I use the strap and attach it to my arms and legs as well.

You can glue it on or tap holes. It is a light base not thick . seems it would contour to a gentle curve. There are a few mounts included

Nope. Sorry. No way to mount it. Plus, it's awfully thick for that....if that makes sense.

no, it is specifically made for undermount. I believe they have a top mount also but this is not it.

You can modify the head strap to mount it on your helmet. I removed the piece that normally goes from the lamp down the back of the head. Then I used the remaining headband to firmly attach the base to my helmet by threading it through two of the vent holes. Not quick to remove, but it stays solidly in place and I didn't have to spend any extra money.

No good way to mount or install it. No mounting holes,no snap-on-track mount - I had to fabricate a hinged-lid plastic box for it, by adapting an outdoor wet location elctrical power outlet box and creating a custom cutout in the inner wall that the LPM-20 fits into. The hinged lid provides access to the button (that is indeed flush with the surface of the device and needs to be pressed in to toggle state).

My experience is it's a hit and miss proposition. Often times you have to do some modification to get it to work. I have only fixed one where it was a direct mount in replacement. All the others required modification. Sorry I can't be more helpful to you than that!

I have not mounted it like that, but the mounting hardware that comes with it is pretty universal and my guess or opinion is that it would mount up just fine or with minimal modification.

Greetings Fellow Soul Owners: There are four mounting locations that come stock on the car. If you look at the roof you will see the recessed cap. Simply remove with a flat head screwdriver (carefully) and BAM! You're ready to rock. The kit I purchased came with the mounting bolts and tool (Allen Head) to complete the job. Be careful not to over tighten the bolts upon installation. We drove from Seattle to Florida with our rack, it was legit. We were careful to follow the weight limit in the manual, somewhere around 100lbs

Two small keyhole brackets widely space on the back. The website has some pictures. I placed tophats mounts on mine and put them on tripod stands for easier side placement.

Yes and no. Anything's possible with plumbing fittings, but the unit is designed (and I assume pressurized) for that head, plus it fits the holder. You can make a larger head irk, but it would be clunky. The hand-held head actually provides a lot of pressure even though it looks like an afterthought.

Hi, i apologize for the late reply. Looking them over thoroughly, these goggles can't go on a rhino helmet mount. There's no way they would fit or stay on, unless you unscrewed the hinge aperture from the forehead piece (which isn't supposed to come off)....but even then, there would be no way to put it on the rhino.

mine came with a non-rachet type suspension and the mount method is non-standard. I would like to acquire this suspension for my hat but haven't put a whole lot of effort into it

However...I slightly modified mine....it comes with Phillips head screws to fasten the cover...I took those bolts to the hardware store..got the same thread pitch in stainless steel and 1/2 in. I think...that way my lid is secured with bolts instead of screws.

Mounting at angles (depending on how much angle your talking about) may not be the best method. It would be advisable to contact the Mfg. before proceeding with an angle mount.

I got one of these for my son and he was able to stack two fedora hats and a newsboy hat in it. His hat size is 7 1/4, so your hats should fit.

If you're running something like a Bell 500 helmet, you're going to need a face shield. There's no point in having a mic if you're open face. As for the mounting side of your question, as long as there's a flat surface it can screw tighten onto, it's basically a universal mount. best to watch a mounting video or two on youtube to see if it'll fit your style helmet.

I used a configuration I found on the web where the guy mounted his vac under the dust deputy. The lid takes a lot of flex and I'm not sure how well the standard 5 gal lid would do. For me, the hose fittings and the buckets were worth it. I tossed the rest of the mounting stuff. Here is what my version looks like.
