Can the cool tube reflector be hung vertically, and without the fins?

Yes the bulbs supplied are able to be used Horizontal or vertical and the fins are optional to use. there is a reflector in the tube that can be used or removed as well

It's not made to be hung vertically, but I'm sure you can make it fit very easily.

Yes, the housing has two metal "o" shaped fasteners on each end. It could be hung without the fins, as the fins are bolted to two half circle "harnesses" , and just floats on top of the housing.

If you could find a way to hook it vertically I don't see why it wouldn't it came with some miscellaneous hooks and stuff when I got mine so its a good possibilitie

There is no way to hang it vertically, the silver part rests on the hanger and there is a small gap between the wall and the white part of the light so if you attempted to hang it vertically it would just fall straight down to the ground

Hi, I use mine with 7' umbrella's without the reflector. There is an umbrella mount under the unit and a bowens mount when the reflector is off.

I bought it to mount at a slant and it works fine. I suppose it could be mounted vertically if you cut it to the needed length and made sure it was properly mounted.

Theres wire hangers on each side that should let u hang it vertically. I knw i would do it that way if i used lights like that. If u measure right u can use both hangers instead of letting it hang from the one which one should hold it just fine. Hopefully this answers your question. Feel free to ask any other questions if u need to.

Yes, I have both of mine mounted vertically. The body then just gets attached 90 degrees from the position shown on the picture. They are made in China but seem to be the rugged strong models that I used in grammar school MANY years ago.

t don't see why it cannot be mounted vertically unless that position puts more wear on the bearings in the fan motor.I am very happy with the one I bought and installed last fall.

This is not freestanding. There is a thin metal rectangle attached to the telescoping pole, to stabilize it you place the thin base under the tank. If you place a sand bag or other weight you may be able to use this, but it is really made to be slid under a stationary object like a tank, or cage, or other habitat.

Yes. Tilt it slighly up or down or rotate a few degrees left ot right. You can also cover parts of the reflective surface with a towel.

Yes, I will work either way. I mounted mine horizontally, but the brackets that come with it will hold it in either orientation. You might have to put something for it to rest on as it will be heavier when full of water. It would be best to mount it so the bulb could be withdrawn upward (less spillage if you were ti have to remove the end cap) the internal quartz tube should not leak with the oring and threaded cap in place.

When I researched this the answer is NO . However it is the preferred method. I think mainly because of maintenance issues when changing out the light or cleaning off the glass , much easier vertically.

Hello Doug, Thank you for your question. The manual states the following: Unit MUST be hung vertically, with the water and gas connections at the bottom and the exhaust at the top. Kind Regards, Ross GadgetsGo P.S. If my answer helped you, please prefer us when you purchase.

This question was asked on November 10, 2013, and several people responded (including me). The consensus is that either one would have to find casters that screw into the bottom of the vertical tubes in place of the supplied plastic "feet" or it would be a tricky custom job.

Yes can be verticaly mounted & gauges can be rotated 360 degree. Gauges can be removed

Yes, there are a variety of grooves that allow you to mount with a slight up or down tilt as well as vertically.

Yes. I installed mine vertically. Holds fairly tight. Just have to make sure the window is closed tight enough to hold it.

If you look at the pedestal (the bottom part of the rack), it has a slot in it. That is where the fin inserts and where the weight of the board is supported. This product might work without a fin, but it would depend on what kind of tail the board had. Probably a pin tail or a diamond tail would work best. Then, the apex of the tail might sit down in the slot. However, the product probably wouldn't work so well for swallowtails or thrusters.
