Need Google Floodlight-Cam to be mountable vertically

Saw an old thread about this, but its locked and 6mo+ old.   

Any update on being able to mount a Floodlight-Cam vertically under the roofline?  I have floodlights to replace and had wanted to put in 3 of these Google Floodlight+Cam kits ... but all three junction boxes are under the roofline.  Seems a short-sighted design flaw to think you'll replace older kits, but only design for 1 of 2 possible orientations.

Any update?

Hi JbuffTX,

 

I'm afraid this feature is not available. Nest Cam with floodlight is only designed to be installed on vertical surfaces like a wall. It is not designed to be installed on horizontal surfaces because the downward facing angle would reduce the floodlight’s functionality by limiting the field of view of the motion sensor.

 

We appreciate you sharing your thoughts with us and we're always looking for ways to improve. We'll take this as feedback and pass this information to our team. Let me know if I can assist you with anything else, otherwise I will be locking this thread in 24 hours.

 

Regards,

Steve
