Can this be used in a shower tub area mounted on the ceiling? We have a dim recessed light without baffle over the sink and the shower area is dimly lit but not completely dark, so I don't know if MB982 would work.

I see no reason that it would not work. It can be easily adjusted to put light where you need it. You may use up a lot of batteries if you use this area frequently.

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.

Although we have had NO problems with this light (we actually have 2), we have them in our 1/2 bathrooms (no tub or shower) so I'm probably not qualified to answer properly. Sorry! They do look great.

Hi, yes we have plenty of light we just feel it does not do the trick with regard to the fan. We have a light in the shower that we never need to use.

This lamp is an LED replacement for a top hat fixture bulb. As such , it is fine.It does not have a gasket and I would not use it, as is, in a moist environment.If your shower already has a moisture proof fixture. This lamp may be suitable as a replacement for the existing bulb.As long as you have a size match.

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.

Yes, it can be. I have 2 in the bathroom. One is mounted directly in the shower. When you mount it directly in the shower you need to put it on a GFI circuit as recommend by the mfg or install a GFI circuit breaker to cover everything on the circuit if you don't want to wire it separately.

I used mine in the kitchen. I would think if you wanted to use them in the shower, I do not see why you could not. The lens and outer trim ring are all one unit. They would be alot more water resistant than the standard shower can trim. If you wanted, apply a small bead of caulking or silicone before you push the light up to the ceiling, as they are LED and will last for a long time.

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!

It can be used in the kitchen; specifically says for under-counter lighting, but it does not mention the bathroom. Buy one and give it a try since it says that it can be used to replace CFL's and incandescent lights within the home.

Any light fixture to be used in the shower has to be wet location rated. I don't believe these fixtures are.

Probably not. We have a vanity light in that bathroom as well. The exhaust fan is closer to the shower and that area was kind of dark. I'd say it's good secondary light. We have it on a separate switch from the vanity light.

Just to be clear, these baffles are the trims only, the recessed light fixture is separate. I do believe, however, that these trims will work with the low voltage light you are using. Hope this helps!

I don't think it will provide enough light for shaving. Yes, it will stick to tile, but I don't know if it will handle the moisture. Bottom line...I wouldn't purchase it for use in a shower and/or for shaving. Sorry about that.

I have this beautiful light fixture in my kitchen. It is not a huge kitchen and the ceiling are about 7.5 to 8 feet high and it looks lovely in this area. It does cast some prism type effects from the design but it is really pretty don't think it would effect reading as I do that a lot in my kitchen. I don't think it would disturb TV viewing the shadows it casts are close to the ceiling and upper walls. Hope this helps. Jeanne Fitzpatrick Andover, MA USA

This has really solved a problem for me in that the contractor who remodeled this house put one recessed bulb over the bath room sink for light. Not enough light was directed at the mirror and this light was the answer. No reflections on the ceiling. It is a perfect soulution.

I wouldn't recommend it for a bathroom or shower. It only stays on briefly. And probably wouldn't give enough light for that big of area. I have two in my closet. One on each side and it gives just enough light to see.

I'm extrememly happy with the light. It is about 50% brighter than the flourescent fixture it replaced (approximately same size). I don't see a problem using in a bathroom, unless it is in a shower.
