i had it mounted horizontally thinking the same, but in fact there is a reduction of light on the bottom/button end of the unit. the design of the housing and the plastic lens does provide for adequate side light emission. also, the appearance of the lens shows it to be slightly concave giving the impression that the leds are pointed at different angles, but close inspection of the led assembly, both are flat and pointed straight.
