Which direction do you mount this unit for best results? Socket down/floor mounted or with a fairly high ceiling, socket up/ceiling mounted? Thx

I first tried it in my small office in a lamp without the shade. It was awesome. It was floor to ceiling! I used it in a floor lamp for a party in a large room, 30 x 40ft. It was beautiful. Shined all over the ceiling and half way down the walls. Big bang for the buck!

I have used mine socket up... However, I have also seen the light used socket down in a high ceiling. Both seem to work great.

Not really sure which would be best. My bulb is on a standing lamp that has three fixtures,each is adjustable as far as what direction they face. But I only have one actual strobe light bulb in We find that facing it more upwards is best It covers the whole room without an issue

I screwed this into a regular lamp and took the shade off and the projection was on the walls and the ceiling - I liked it and my wife liked it. If you put it in the ceiling, the socket would be better if it was in the center or toward the center of the room. They aren't very expensive, so even two of the sides of the room would be cool.

I mounted mine horizontal rather than vertical like the picture. Has worked great. No issues.

I tried ineach of the two sockets, both up and down. Would not fitat all. Tried two other sockets as well. May just be my apartment although I have never had trouble with any other item. Just thought you might want to know.

We have mounted ours on the ceiling in the garage. The heat is disperced over the area it is pointed toward, thus is not truly focused, but still is directional.

Not sure I understand your question but we mounted our on the shortest downrod (closest to the ceiling) and it works wonderfully!

you can use the socket that would be above or below however if you have a muliti pronged "cheater" socket, then it will take up a socket that would be beside the unit. it is fat and it is designed to be streamelined on one plane so it does not eat up the socket below. you don't have a choice which socket to use because it is polarity priority, becasue of the fatter prong that grounds it. hope this makes sense.

There are no provisions in the package for doing that first of all. Second, most outlets are closer to the floor than they are the ceiling which is where you would want to mount his ideally.

The bulb socket has a large plastic bolt that you hand tighten. I don't see why you couldn't mount as a down light.

I ceiling mounted mine. The mount is universal. They don't recommend ceiling mounting, likely for liability reasons. I haven't had any problems. Mounts are secured in uility boxes in the ceiling using the faceplate as the mounting location.

It does not appear it w as designed to mount up side down but it does work ok in that position. It appears to have slotted type holes for mounting on the wall. If you do mount it on the ceiling holes would need to be drilled through the plastic base. I use the fan as a table mount .

I have mine mounted to a finished ceiling. When installing you will just need a stud finder to make sure you line up the bracket with a ceiling joist.

I have it mounted about a foot above the floor, no issues. It's a very self-contained unit so mounting shouldn't matter that much, it's make sure the space in front is clear.

I did not mount this unit and it works well on the floor. The floor was level, but you might want to secure it for additional security.

I mounted mine flush because I did not have a high ceiling and it works great

I am not sure what you meant by flush mounted. Can you explain so I can better assist you.

I would say its pretty simple... The hardest part is proper install. If you are going to ceiling mount you need to be sure you have a way to plug it in, it sounds simple but I didn't think about that when I set mine up... Anyways hope this helps a little bit.

Mine is wired with an upper and lower socket. The upper one is for a regular bulb (looks like the one in the picture). The downward facing socket is much smaller and intended as a nightlight--it uses a candelabra. bulb.
