One of the photos shows it installed in a shower, but no shower stall is totally dark. Does anyone know if it would actually work in a shower?

I would say it probably would not work in a shower stall that had another light source,I noticed even if some daylight is coming it light will not go on . However they are excellent lights.

I put mine in a 5th wheel bathroom and it works great. I don't know why it wouldn't work in a shower, except the stream might cause problems.

It has to be pretty dim for it to come on. I think it would not work unless you left the room light off.

I've been using mine in my shower since I bought it in April 2013. My shower had no other light source so this has really helped.I did find that it was coming on when I would walk past the shower to the sink but all I had to do was put a little bit of tape over the part of the photosensor that was facing out. After that, it worked just fine, only coming on when I step into the shower. :)

I think it would be good in a shower because the spread of the beam. My vestibule, where I have mine installed, is about 6' buy 3' and it REALLY lights it very well. Hope this helps.

I have mine in the bathroom but not in the shower. It rusted a bit where the pieces are welded together but that's because I don't wipe it often enough. In conclusion, it may rust in the shower;)

Mine is pretty opaque but I do not have a lot of backlighting inside my shower. A white liner (you would need a liner anyways) would solve the problem if you did have a lot of light in the shower.

I installed it in a 4 X 6 shower stall but the ceiling height is close to 8ft in the shower.

I would tend to agree with Scott, about mounting it in a shower. However if Jim M says it worked for his mother, so be it. My brother-in-law actually installed it just outside the shower for his mother. I personally would not install the pole IN the shower if the bottom of the pole is mounted to a bathtub.

I really am not sure about putting it inside a shower I just used I for the bathroom as a fan and light works great for that.

I just used beige. Any darker and it could be harder to see in the shower - unless you have a light in the stall.

Nope, it cannot be used in shower. There is a label on it which clearly indicates to keep the device away from water

Well, it is normally mounted outside in the rain and sun all year, it should be able to take some dampness in a shower. I would mount it just "outside" the shower curtain rod, pointing into shower. I think less water/steam would get on it.

I put mine in a bathroom with a skylight and it's like a nightlight. Bright enough to let you find your way around bt not so bright that it wakes you up. I like it. It stays lit a long time.

By design, I wouldn't suggest this in a shower. Just outside the shower shouldn't be a problem, but it needs to be secured by tension from floor to ceiling and I fear it might crack your tub/shower with continued pressure. Plus, as you mentioned, it is metal so it will likely rust due to a few holes where residual water will enter and collect. Hope this helps.

It works great in shower stall or tub. It does not slip and adjustable height. I even change the shower head to one with hand held piece which made easier for rinsing off!

Yes! I love it because the light in my bathroom is in a weird spot so it's pretty dark while taking a shower. No more, this brightens it right up and you can see through it!

The sound is not that great. It might get muffled by the sound of the shower per se. You can try but avoid getting it wet.

If the tub is bigger than a standard size tub, it will work. I use mine outside my shower stall in my motor home because the shower is elevated and it's a long step down. Hope that helps. If it doesn't work for you, you can always return it.

Just checked. Anything is possible, I suppose, but it definitely doesn't look like it. The underside has metal screws in it. We have it installed in our shower and it's great when mounted.

I use it in a fiberglass shower and it works well. I think It is beginning to wear down which means that it doesn't last a year. I still really like it though.
