Is there a mount available, that will screw on to the pro 2 (not magnetic) and not interfere with the AC plug that enters the camera. Every one I've tried has a tightening wheel that won't work due to the extremely close proximity of the rubberized AC plug. Thank you very much

The VMA4000 ( black or white just screws in without a lock wheel )VMA4000B_Front_Transparent

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The 1000 model as mention above is taller, it was changed in that the older ones had a larger lock wheel, the new models the wheel is half the size ( due to your problem )

 

 

 

 

BTW, you can always use a small 1/4-20 nut on the mount ( smaller than lock wheel )

Here's another picture. And also works on the cameras right side up. Not just upside down. This is how I have mine.

This mount combines a ball mount with a pedastal and swivel. It also includes a cord and headless screw that screws into the threaded socket to slow down a thief. The headless screw doesn't interfere with the magnetic mount. I got these on Amazon.ca, likely should be available in the Amazon for your country.
