Q:Can this be used to mount a vanity light in a wall or is this strictly for use in a ceiling?

Answer This Question

A:  Hi there, this box could be used in a wall instead of a ceiling, however this box does not have the 2 hour fire rating from UL that most electrical boxes used in walls require. I hope this helps!

      A:  There's a discrepancy here somewhere. The product description says up to 10 pounds, but if you go to the manufacturer's website and punch in the identical part number stamped on the unit itself, the description there says 6 pounds

          A:  They (the manufacturer) say 50lbs I would say 15 - 20lbs.

          by|Dec 3, 2022

            A:  I saw 10 lbs somewhere too, but the box in store says 6 lbs

              Very Good
              The hole that I cut for this was about 4-1/16" dia. I hand-cut the hole using a keyhole saw (easy) The drywall was 1/2" This box is supporting a pendant light fixture that only weighs about 2 lbs. The three wing tabs rotated out as they should and as I tightened the screws, they clamped the box in place very well. This light was in series with several other lights, so I had to connect two 14/2 NM cables and the wires from the fixture in this junction box. Worked well.

                Very easy to install. Ran some Romex into it for a new light installation in drywall. Held on tight to the drywall and I don't foresee any issues

                HD insists on getting a review, but my order kept getting canceled (tried multiple stores, always stock issues even though they said they had dozens and I wanted 6) so i never got the product, I'm sure it's probably a splendid little plastic box.
