Is it possible to mount the Kessil A360X(E) on an Orphek Univeral Mount?

I'm toying with the idea of adding some OR3 Orphek LED bars to my tank that is lit with an AP9X and A360XE. The room the tank is in has a two story ceiling so hanging the lights isn't possible.

However, with a lot of lights comes a lot of mounting arms, which can get ugly fast and look too cluttered.

Does anyone know if you can screw in a Kessil A360X to one of the Orphek mounting arms? That would at remove one mounting arm.

The LED bar.

The mounting arm.

Curious to know if you ever figured out if this worked or not

Unfortunately not sure, but from my initial research, looks like it is very doable - though don't quote me on that.

The top mount screw for Kessil is a M5 thread, so you have a lot of options. I used cheap 360 camera shoe swivel mounts with a 1/4” female to m5 male adapter on mine. Two mounts and two adapter were less than $20.
