      You can not attach the ring to wedge at all ...you show me a video of how you do that and I will...

      I do not like this solution as the gap between the solar charger and the wall created by the wedge invites possible vandalism.

    I don't know if anyone found answers or photos to the mounting issue, but I am posting it if someone still needs them. 1) mount your solar charger: with screws or anchors & screws to the main surface. 2) attach corner angle: use provided (2) small Philips machine screws through the (2) elongated slots to attach angle to solar charger 3) attach ring doorbell: with (4) screws through ring doorbell to corner angle bracket ![IMG_0162|375x500](upload://pw63Fij9aF9btkrMfiK8khJteTw.jpeg)

      I have tried every way possible to mount wedges to the solar panel charger for the ring video doorbell. I don't care what anybody says in this section unless ring is willing to provide extra long screws which so far I have not found them to be willing to do so you cannot connect the wedge to the solar panel. If anybody knows of a way of getting these extra long screws I would appreciate if you could share that with me. I have been to Lowe's and home Depot and they do not make screws that long with that particular type of thread.

        The screw size needed is an M3 metric screw. You may need to use washers to get the correct length.
