Installation of Floodlight Cam Wired Plus under overhang or eave
After looking online and seeing so much info on the Floodlight cams mounting horizontally I picked up one and attempted to mount it on my soffit. It can not be done in an effective way. All the videos on doing this show an older version of the mounting with a jam nut at the base of each light allowing you to rotate 360 degrees. The one I have, I assume the Amazon version, has no jam nut and has a limiting stop in the rotation. I wish Ring would put a notice on the box stating explicitly that it can not be mounted horizontally. Better yet, make one that can be mounted horizontally like the majority of floodlights on homes.

Hey neighbors. If you are planning to install your Floodlight Cam underneath an overhang or an eave, you will need to rotate the lights so that the Camera fits. You can find some installation diagrams [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360059068632-Installing-Your-Ring-Floodlight-Cam-Wired-Pro-) showing this. When doing this, you may notice the light shroud on the bottom rather than above the light. Since the Floodlight Camera is being installed under an overhang or an eave, the lights should be protected from inclement weather given the coverage above the Camera. Additionally, the Floodlight Cam is weather-resistant as it is designed to be installed outdoors. If you do notice water having gotten inside of your Floodlight Cam, or there is any physical damage due to extreme weather conditions, please follow up with our support team at one of the numbers available [here](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/213608406) for further assistance.
