I've had it spraying mounts since I got it in one way or another. Right now I have LED non-waterproof strip of lights mounted underneath a baker's rack shelf. The misters hang off a pipe that's about four inches below that. As long as it's not pointed at the lights, or above the lights, you should be fine. As ES says, they're directional misters. I'll try to take a picture in awhile.

Thanks! I have a rack/shelf on the left side, then an open area on the right for the mounted orchids, sounds like if I add a tarp in between the 2 sections and have the fans off during the spray I should be all set.

Prepping for an extended vacation followed by shoulder replacement, so not having to have my house sitter, or my gf spray 2-3 times a day is ideal.
