3M VHB 5952 vs 3M Scotch Extreme Mounting Tape

How do these compare? Is 3M Scotch Extreme Mounting Tape essentially the "consumer" version? I have a few rolls of this already because I use it to mount receivers and ESCs in my RC cars. I have to remount some dashcams and was wondering if it's worthwhile to try.

Or is the 3M VHB 5952 a lot better?

I've used the 3M 30 lb mounting tape from Lowes to attach a dashcam to my windshield. In 2 weeks it hasn't fallen off. The stuff is extremely sticky and seems more like an adhesive pad than tape
