Can this be mounted upside down to a ceiling?

It can be, but I wouldn't recommend doing so. This item is affixed with a ball / socket joint (directly under the "camera" part) that may loosen if not attached as shown. Hope that helps. I mounted it to the side of a garage and it looks real. They have other models that are meant for ceiling mount.

I would not try mounting this camera upside down since it was designed for a vertical surface. Am sure you can find an alternative.

Yes, it can be mounted on the ceiling but you will not be able to point it everywhere as you can if you put it on a wall. The camera will rotate and also swivels up and down but mounted on a ceiling, the base will get in the way of some directions. I would try to find a wall location if at all possible so that it can be mounted as in the photos. If that is not an option, you may want to look at one of the round cameras that are designed to be mounted on the ceiling. I just did a quick check on Amazon and there are several available. Good luck in your search.

I wouldn't recommend hanging it upside down. The glass does not sit securely in the base of the light fixture so there is some play in the glass. There is a nut that hold the glass in place but it just doesn't seem that secure to me. Good luck and happy hunting.

If you tried doing that, you'd want to make sure the only thing that's upside-down is the pole itself. But I'm not sure how you'd be able to use the monitors so close to the ceiling. The pole itself isn't that long.Logically, there wouldn't be any difference in the stresses or resistance if only the pole is upside-down.Aside from the shortness of the pole, the only other problem would be the difficulty in attaching the pole securely to the ceiling.

it will work upside down, you have to just cover the hole when turning it over.

I wouldn't think so. Maybe if you mounted it upside down :-), but I wouldn't recommend it.

Yes, you could hang it upside. You would have to only flip the pole and keep the arms the same way as if on a desk.

I don't think there should be any problem with mounting it upside down. Except of course that when you open it you are in risk of dumping everything in there on the floor...

I believe it could be mounted to a ceiling but would need to be supported by backing secured to the studs using 4" lag bolts as the unit is quite heavy :-)

I do not believe this can be mounted as a ceiling fixture. It is impractical and it would hung sideways.

Yes, it can be used upside down. When we installed ours, we first installed it upside down just to see if it would work-- it does! We now have it installed upright and have been using it for several months without issue. The finish is still very shiny and it has not deteriorated at all. This product comes with a very high recommendation from us!

No it can't , the mount slides in to the top of the radar detector, I would not put it upside down.

Yes - the camera can be inverted as there are screw holes on both sides. We have them mounted on the ceilings in 4 of our businesses. They work well.

If you do the light will be mounted sideways, but should still work but you won't be able to adjust it up and down.

no it cannot be installed upside down, the screen only mounts one way into the chassis, mounting it upside down would cause the screen to be upside down reading it, it doesnt "screen flip"

I used the bulb in the upright position but I don't believe it would be a problem to install the bulb upside down.

yes I would think so. The hole for the knob is drilled in the middle and the shelves are adjustable. There is nothing about it that would make it look "upside down" if you did that.

No, I really don't think that would work. It can only be mounted on the wall, either right side up or upside down.
