The light even includes a hang strap, so you don’t have to hold your arms up the entire time you’re connecting all of the wires. You get a metal mounting bracket, a plastic mounting plate, ample screws for different setups, and twist wire connectors. The Floodlight Pro includes everything you need to replace an exterior light fixture. It has only three wires you need to connect: A ground wire (the green wire), the current or hot wire (the black wire), and the neutral wire (the white wire).
If you can install a basic light fixture or light switch, you can install the Floodlight Wired Pro. The traditional way to install the Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Pro is with the camera portion on the bottom and the lights on top, but you can change this orientation and install the unit upside down to better fit a ceiling or low-level installation. The base contains a camera that swivels in all different directions and two 3,000-degree Kelvin with 2,000-Lumen floodlights, which you can move up and down or spin to adjust to your liking. I appreciated the foam backing on the mounting plate, and I didn’t need to place caulk around the Floodlight as a result. The light I replaced with the Floodlight did not have this foam backing on the mounting plate rather, the builder of my home had placed caulk around the base of the fixture to prevent moisture from getting in. This helps to prevent moisture from entering and interfering with the electrical connections.
I noticed the mounting plate includes a foam backing to make for a more airtight seal between the floodlight and the exterior wall. The camera and floodlight are attached to the base, and the whole unit is weather-resistant with the ability to operate in temperatures ranging from minus 5 degrees to 118 degrees Fahrenheit. It measures 12.82 by 7.77 by 8.5 inches, but the round base is only about 5 inches in diameter.
The Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Pro comes in either black or white, and I tested the black color option for this review.
