Will this light work pointing Down, would the fan know its upside down?

Yes; I've operated one in the upside down position for over six months without any problem whatsoever.

I cannot answer that today, but will put them in my garage tonight and see if they work, If you want to ask the question again in a couple of days I can let you know

I believe it will work in any orientation. But be warned, the higher wattage bulbs are BRIGHT!

Yes - the bulbs can be upside down in the lamp without a problem. The lamps we have them in our sideways.

Is the sensor flexible enough to point in the correct direction when ceiling mounted (under soffitt)?

No. You must use the switch on the fan body to reverse the fan. The switch only controls the speeds and light.

The shade does rotate downward. The length of the shade alone is 8.5". I'm not sure how much light it would cast downward on the keys. I am using it as a desk lamp next to my computer and it works well for my keyboard. It's a very nice lamp, my only concern would be how much light do you need and would this be sufficient. If I can help with any more information, please let me know. Karen

I think so if you ceiling mount it (I don't remember if this is an option). I really like this fan/light combo, very attractive for a $100 fan.

Yes, I plugged it upside down and right side up. Both worked fine. However, I did not try to turn the plug base. I've preferred to plug it right side up because the top of the light is pointed upward toward the ceiling to give more light. I hope this help.

Yes, when light is angled down, light is pretty much centralized. The more it is angled up, the more area it will light.

If you haven't noticed, it has the text in two directions. The test light should be on the bottom right corner, but there could be applications where you would need to reverse the direction (i.e., ceiling mounted).

Yes, mine is pointed toward the ground rather than up to the sky. I have to admit the unit is failing after a year plus use. I have to either flick the blub or screw the bulb a bit tighter for it to operate. I maybe should replace the bulb but it does stay lit each night by doing this seemingly simple procedure.

It should. It worked great when I first got it but now ... it doesn't work the first, second or third time I try to light it, let alone upside down!

If you mount it on a ceiling I don't think you will be able to point it straight down. I use mine in my garage; they are mounted on the walls and come on when I pull in.

Yes. You can rotate the light up and down- so it points farther in the distance or closer to your feet. It stays where you point it very wellReese is incorrect.

If it's a "Dusk to Dawn" light, hanging it upside down might be a problem since the sensor is on the "top". A motion detector type hung upside down may not give you the range of adjustment (for the motion detector sensor) you need.

Yes. We installed our lights facing down. They look great. We were also able to find some smaller 40 watt size bulbs without the bulb imprint marking showing on the bottom of the bulb.

I guess. The contractor installed for us. But I see no reason why it can't be upside down. Our bulbs are facing the floor actually.
