I did this on my cell phone mount and it hasn't budged a single millimeter in over 800 miles.
Thank you very much buddy!
I was googling my crappy headlight last night seeing if anyone was facing the same issues I was. Negative reviews on how weak and brittle the plastic mount is just kept coming up, but nothing on how stable the mount is. Light is great but everyone is frustrated with how such light can be so powerful yet have the worst quality mount.
Anywho, I will try the water hose method tonight once I try a double tape method I saw online. If my mount eventually breaks I'll just use the headlight as a emergency flashlight in the car and order a rubber mount headlight based on recommendations on here.
