is there such a thing as a roof jack for this light unit, where it can be mounted on the roof(down slope of a hip)????

I don't think there is, and the other question that comes to mind as an electrician, how do you plan to provide power to the unit? I have never seen a light mounted on a roof. I have seen them on the peak of a gable roof.

You probably could, but you may not want to. I have mounted units on the roof before and found them to be a lot harder to maintain ( because I had to climb onto the roof whenever they needed maintenance ) and because it will put a lot more head pressure on the pump to push the weater up to the roof.

I purchased mine as a replacement overhead light for my camper. It attached with screws to the ceiling. You could attach it to any flat surface using screws or I guess on the back mounting plate you could use some double sided tape to attach without drilling holes. Just connect your 12 volt power supply to it and your done. Hope this helps

I am not sure.... I have only used lights that come wth a head attachment. I guess if you have a clamp or some accessory to attach it would be possible.

I'm hoping NiteRider will make one. But if they don't, I'm going to use my Planet Bike taillight mount, which will accept this light. I will add a rubber band to hold the light onto the mount, as the NiteRider click hold mechanism does not interoperate with Planet Bike. YOu can order the taillight rack mount a la carte from Planet Bike (or at least, you used to be able to).

Hi You can mount these things anywhere. Use sheet rock screws to tack it down... 3-4inch length screws, this type of screw that stays where you put it and its so easy, just drive it right through the plastic frame into the structure, easiest with a drill with bit. These are good motion lights, most lights are blind and useless, these pick up all motions. I have 3 extra for replacements.

Sorry, I don't think this would work. The stem is made to come straight out of the canopy, and the way the two parts join is fairly rigid. There's enough "give" that you could bump the light a little and it would move slightly, but not enough that you could mount the canopy flush with the ceiling and have the lamp hang straight down.

If you look at the picture. You will see two bolts on the the mounts that descend down. You will either need to drill through roll bar like I did, or find something to wrap around it to bolt it down with. All of these lights have the same mounting design.

As you can probably see from the site pictures, this light has a sheet metal "handle" bolted to both sides. That is most commonly fastened to a building wall to attach the light and also allow it to pivot at the bolt attachment. You will have to place something sturdy into the ground then secure the light to it with the attached metal strap. Optionally you could place two posts, sandwich the light between them and attach into the bolt holes used to attach the strap (would almost certainly require longer bolts).

I purchased the light a month ago and no mounting hardware was included. You only need 4 bolts to mount it unless you want to change the angle. Rigid Industries sells angle-changing hardware.

The bulb socket has a large plastic bolt that you hand tighten. I don't see why you couldn't mount as a down light.

The post has two pieces, the one stake to put in ground, but if you take stake off, i'm sure it could be mounted on roof some how. Actually that's a great idea for if you wanted to use these as Christmas lights. I have them around a small palm tree and they are bright and beautiful and stay on for 4-6 hours.

nothing is the directions says you cant, and pretty sure you can since these units are very popular in other countries and usually mounted on the roof.

Can be done. Did it in one locationThis is a 2 person job. Expensive light to drop. Good luck.

No! In theory -- sure -- but lugging it up a ladder, handling its weight on a slippery surface and controlling the depth of stroke so you don't damage your roof would make it very impractical.

I don't have this exact light, but I have one that has a similar interface where the arm attaches to the ceiling plate and mine is hinged and would work on a vaulted ceiling.

I had mine mounted on top of my roof basket that was bolted to my roof. N-Fab makes brackets or you can custom make them. Also Mark at Slaughterhouse in Houston makes some.
