Does the housing come with a base to mount to? If not, has anyone purchased one they can recommend for ground mounting?

It comes without the base. If you are going to put it in the garden buy Nuvo Lighting SF76/640 2-Inch by 18-Inch PVC Mounting Post Die Cast Aluminum Cap Durable Outdoor Landscape Pathway Lighting, Dark Bronze.

The base is made of lamated wood bolted to a center brace. We don't know anything about a base to mount it to, we don't think they are made specifically for a motor home but served our purpose and we r happy with them.

yes it does come with instructions for mounting, but you have to provide bolts. it is very simple to mount though.

Hi TinaYes, the base unit ca be wall mounted but you will need to get screws from radio shack, best buy or other electrical store. The directions on page 59 of operations instruction booklet are not detailed but you should be able to install.

Sorry but I don't know. I used a wall mount and never looked at the base or how it worked. Sorry.

It comes with a base. I have to tell you that this is a piece of junk. One of the major spokes snapped off and it was a complete loss. Don't buy this! If my husband had been alive he probably would have tried to weld it, but it would happen again. When this happened there was no wind whatsoever. I hope you haven't purchased it yet. If so return it if the shipping isn't to high. I'm sorry.

The same as someone else responded to however the base is not intended for direct mounting. If you do decide to mount it using the base, I would first glue and screw it to a piece of wood cut to the same size as the base to ensure sufficient support.

Yes, mine came with a base attached, but can be taken off it not needed. I actually use it in both my RV on a wall swivel and in my bedroom on a table, just leaving the stand attached. I really have like this TV for the money!

Yes, at lease mine did. It's a great stand. I believe if it didn't come with mounting screws, people would complain about that on the reviews...Lol. Hope that helps.

No not unless you want extra suppost but ours es on the ground with rocks supporting the frame since my husband thought we did not need a base. Been working great for over a year. Hope this helps.

Yes. You have to screw the base on when you receive it along with the two adjustable mounting brackets. Comes packed in styrofoam in large rectangular box.

Yes, there are metal sections that anchor the unit to the ground. They seem effective, but installation is tricky if ground is not level.

No base. Uses a standard marine 1" x 14 antenna base. I installed using the plastic stubby type on my radar arch. Cost was under $10.

I didn't use a base plate on mine. Just mounted it however it came and it's been just fine. Haven't had to tighten anything since I first installed it about ten months ago.

Yes it comes with a mount, it is as good as a metal mount can be. You can also mount it in a panel if you want to.

No mounting plate, not needed. The base has 4 legs that are screwed to the roof with 3 screws each. It came with all of the necessary hardware.
