Can this be mounted directly to the underside of the eaves, away from the exterior wall? Or does it need to be mounted to the house itself? Thanks!

We attached the awning to the edge of an extended overhang on the back patio. It's not a deep overhang which is why we needed more shade and protection over our patio furniture. When the awning is open, it just looks like the overhang is longer. We are very happy with the awning. Hope this helps you.

Greetings. Would this work if located on an outdoor covered deck? I t would be set against the outside wall of house.

I have not put this one up yet. However I have solar lights all over my rural property and generally it requires full sunlight so I would not suggest placing under an eave.

I have never mounted it out doors. I have always had it mounted by a window indoors. You will need a signal amplifier with this. I recommend the Alfa AWUS036NH 802.11n 2000mW WIRELESS-N USB adapter.

Mine is mounted on the bottom outside of the bedframe. It works perfectly there as long as there is a place to feed the wires through so that it comes out to the outside where ever you want to install it.

This is not a device you want to install outside.I installed it on the wall inside my garage. Basically I had to make a hole on the wall to get the leads to connect to the Eddy. It was handy to have an electric outlet near to the area where it was installed.

Well, yeah. Usually the main unit is mounted on the wall in the house or set on a shelf. The outdoor would be mounted outside, mine is hung on a post under a bird feeder. :o)

It is designed to be mounted in a garage or shed. They make outdoor models if you need to put it outside.

John,This is strictly a wall mount as there is not enough room to swivel the motion detector from the spot lights once you turn it 90 degrees to fit it to the bottom of your eave, hope this helps. Its a great security light, good soft light and easily adjustable.

It can be mounted either way. I mounted it with the Aluminum to the out side of the door. It works great and looks real good. You do have to caulk at the edge of the aluminum to keep water from running behind and ruining your garage door. The advantage of installing the alumni from the outside is that the bottom of the door does not wick water up from standing water.

IMHO, Absolutely! I have used mine for over a year...outside. It is mounted on the corner of the house, beneath the over hang from the roof. It has snowed, hailed and experienced negative Fahrenheit temperatures this winter with no trouble at all.

Yes, it does. Pay careful attention, however, that you want to mount this on an outside wall. It will not work from the house eaves.

I believe so. I just mounted mine yesterday under an eave and it was no problem. I mounted the solar panel on the roof above the unit. The only problem was getting the motion sensor settings correct. Just follow what they say in the instruction manual.

From the product description:At a Glance...Wall- or eave-mountedAlso, I have this unit and it works fine under eave.

It has a mounting bracket that works best on a piece of pvc plastic/galvanized pipe or something similar. u want to mount it facing the host router and adjust angles for best performance either outdoors or in a window facing the window with the router in optical/visual sight of the antenna, i've found it works well in both applications if distance is within reason. On an exterior wall is good too as long as you can see the host and make appropriate adjustments (left right up down), but it has no wall mount bracket per say, you will need to be a bit creative to manage that. good luck

it should be protected from rain and freezing temperatures.so it can be mounted outdoors but in a weather protected location (ie. a box). used mine under a tarp one summer.

I have mine mounted on the wall of a 3 car garage (inside). It reaches most of the two story with walkout basement house fine, as well as the backyard and pool area. I get a weak signal in an adjacent shop building, and use an amped range booster set up for the ubiquiti to feed my computer there. With that in mind, saw no need to mount it outside as I had initially planned.
