Can this be mounted on an eave/soffit?

We mounted ours on a post, but truly believe it could be mounted on an eave.

My house is stucco and I have no problem. As for an eave or soffit, I think it can be as long as that portion is sound. I hope this helps.

I believe so. I just mounted mine yesterday under an eave and it was no problem. I mounted the solar panel on the roof above the unit. The only problem was getting the motion sensor settings correct. Just follow what they say in the instruction manual.

From the product description:At a Glance...Wall- or eave-mountedAlso, I have this unit and it works fine under eave.

It can only be mounted on the exterior, and it needs a hole to run the wires. I would not think it would be suitable for use on a window.

Yes, I would recommend mounting the light under the eave to provide additional protection from rain and the elements. There is also a pedestal which enables you to mount the light on the ground (i.e. near a foot path or lighting up a garden).

the air intake is on the top at a slight angle. it probably wouldn't work well right against the soffit, but if you had a couple inches you should be okay. would probably be a b****h to clean that narrow gap between the unit and the soffit though.

YES that is how I use it 2 vent my cat box area outside. I mounted it outside just beneath the soffit.

Yes, I mounted mine on the outside, on the garage door frame, and have had no problems with it. I'm not sure what the manufacturer recommendations are on outside mounting but the unit would not be useful if not outside and easily accessible. I thought about keeping it out of any direct sun but I'm not sure how important that factor is. It mounts flush and when in the closed position is very snug.

No you cannot. Mount it normally with sturdy bracketsand a piece of plywood secured to the house under the AC.then fill the space above with a clear acrylic sheet from Home Depot.

Designed for wall, but could probably work on soffits, the light would not be able to shoot very much.

You can as the back is open accept around the edges and you could hang the unit from a couple of drywall screws. However, there is no specific holes in the plastic for mounting.

Looking at mine, I think it is adjustable enough that it could be aimed when mounted on a horizontal surface such as a soffit. I believe mine is mounted on a round box. The width of the two mounting screws seems standard and the RAB light base is larger than a standard round box. There is a rubber like seal that goes between the light and the mounting surface to ensure moisture does not get behind the light and the wall.

Absolutely! It can be mounted in a hanging fashion (from a ceiling) or on a wall. You would need to get some concrete anchors (like TAPCONS) to anchor it. But it will work on any surface you can fasten it to. Ask the guys at the hardware store for the correct fasteners, but the brackets that come with it will work with whatever wall surfuce you mount it to. We have 2 mounted to a wood pergola and they are indispensable in the summer for blocking the sun.

It mounts flat to the SIDE of something like a wall or the exterior side of an eave. It is not meant to be hung either upside down or from a celing. I am sure it would still work, but my concern would be the sensor would be pointing straight down. You would have to be underneath it for the sensor to kick on.

It certainly can. It can be mounted in any position just make sure to inset it so the tile will run right up to the inside edge. Good luck with your project. Ec

It could, but you would probably have to mount on the exterior, or possibly on the door jamb. It would be more difficult to position.

Absolutely! It can be mounted on a ceiling, or wall. The bracket is easily mounted in any direction. But I would make sure it is load bearing and won't rip out of the ceiling.
