Seeing that I don't even have one, explains part of my confusion. I thought that the bubble was in fact the transmitter, but looking at your diagram, the little round hole is...

So I guess now I'm wondering how the light shoots out of the hole. If it comes out in a ray and spreads out 360 degrees in three dimensions (if that makes sense, like in this picture):



then it shouldn't matter at all how you mount it, heck, even diagonal?

But if it comes out like in two dimensions only, a type of flat beam that fans out, like this then horizontal would make more sense.
