Hi, don’t know if there has been any change but you have always been able to mount them on the ceiling (they are just not recommended by Ring to be mounted horizontally possibly due to weather proofing). Google it and you will see plenty of images that show you how you will need to position the lights and camera up soffets etc.
I have my own post about this issue. One agent told me they had indeed changed the fitting, while all others said no. I purchased the floodlight cam and found the instructions did not show any detail about ceiling mount. A few more phone calls and a few more chats, along with my post here in the community, I gave up and returned it.
It is beyond me why Ring has not made a simple modification to this mount after the large number of people wanting it.
Correction: Not my post but one I participated in. Note very last message from Ring that was opposite from what they said originally. a) No you can’t mount it on a ceiling. (b) Well you can, but we don’t recommend it. LOL Confusion abounds. As I said previously, I just returned it. Not worth the hassle. Hopefully, in the not too distant future, Ring will give its customers what they want and need with the Floodlight Cam mounting.
