@KedDK, I've sold lots of those mounts and nobody has contacted me about them cracking.
Ever use PolyMax PLA before? It doesn't crack easily like the PLA you're probably used to. Check it out if you require a strong PLA for your next printing project. You won't be disappointed.
No i have not used PLA from PolyMax but it won't change that being PLA it is made by some sort of starch and by nature biodegradable. Not the right material for products to be used outside unless you would take advantage of the compostable property.
Being 3D printed not molded it will be more porous and exposed, It might last a year or two but will become brittle and crack sooner or later. Hopefully it happen during mount/unmount and not during flight so the strobe could be lost too.
Edit: just noted that they wre sold from your site, this was not a warning against your products but the material used.
