“How to mount this on a textured wall/ceiling? I believe it uses 3M Command Strips to adhere to the surface. That does not work on my walls/ceiling... Is it possible to mount with a screw which is how I have the earlier generation of motion sensor mounted.”

I had one spot where I had this issue. I used a screw and mounted a quarter sized washer to the wall and mounted it to that.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Take a small putty knife and scratch the textured plaster off.
I would recommend:
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The pedestal magnetic base uses 3M’s VHB (very high bond) to attach to surfaces... it does not use the Command strips to attach so it only needs a clean oil free surface... once it is applied it will totally cure in approximately 72 hours... if you want to move to a different place, the bond will have to be cut off and could tear off the surface of the drywall if not done carefully and will leave a residue or part of its foam... also the bonding tape will have to be replaced since it is a one time use adhesive. You can also mount this to any metal surface that a magnet will attach to without using the included base... if this is done you do lose the adjustment that the pedestal ball allows...
