I was on a job the other day and say what looked like up lights in the soffet over the front door. They were to shine straight up and wash the wall above the front door. When I looked closely at these two "uplights", they look like plain recess cans installed upside down. The will be properly supported in the wood ceiling so that they will shine straight up. My questions are:
1) Are they UL listed for upside down use?
2) Will they need a lens over it to keep dirt out?
3) Will the lens trip the thermal link inside hi hat?

I will meet the the contractor next week to ask him these questions, but has anyone ever seen this type of installation before?
Mind you, these are not the low voltage outside up lights that you would see outside around the home. They are just plain old hi hats (I think?) that are installed upside down to shine upward.
