Since the lamp seems quite high, does it disturb to see the bare bulbs from downwards?

No, I haven't even noticed them. We have lower wattage bulbs that don't get too bright anyway- more of a softer light- so it hasn't been an issue.

Only if you sit beneath the lamp and look up!! Funny question! The lamp sits in the corner and over my couch. It is a great lamp because of its dim knob I can make it as bright or as dim as I want! I get lots of compliments on this lamp. It is very nice and I would recommend to my family or friends. I hope I was able to help you!

No the lighting is just fine. We love the lamp and get lots of compliments.

No it does not disturb us at all, as this lamp is made to go behind the couch the lamps are position over our head and up to 2 feet in front of us. We don't look up into them, even when laying back in recliner the bulbs don't really show up. Love the lamp so maybe I don't mind the bare bulbs - we do use regular old shaped clear not the new fluorescent bulbs.

It may be normal but it is not necessary to keep it if it is unattractive. Mine was pieced together badly so that it looked like a polar ice cap on top. They had me take a photo and send it to them and then sent me another lamp w/o me sending the first one back.

There are LEDs on the four sides and the top. So the light appears rather omni-directional. I disagree with D. Gonzales answer that these provide little light. They put out more light than the 4 watt bulbs I was using.

This bulb is a spot light bulb, and all the light is focused upward. I have in a floor lamp and the shade is not illuminated.

Lowest position it can be in is about less than a foot of set at the shortest on the tripod with the light fixture completely facing the floor.I though for a moment you meant low as in emititon, to which I can say it only has two light levels, acceptable daylight surrogate, and off.Hope that answered your question!

Yes, it's really more of an upward lighting. I'd recommend this bulb, tho. It works great with this lamp: Triangle Bulbs T95123-6 (6pack) - LED Dimmable 60 Watt Equivalent Daylight A19 Light Bulbs, 6 pack

Yes. We installed our lights facing down. They look great. We were also able to find some smaller 40 watt size bulbs without the bulb imprint marking showing on the bottom of the bulb.

No, you cannot see the light bulbs through the shade when it's turned off. We're very happy with the purchase.

you're asking whether the field of illumination covers a broad enough area? Sure. Or whether the lamp is tall enough to go over the fixture? Just barely high enough for your purposes, I suspect.

There is a fairly snug fitting piece of plexiglass that slides under the light assembly. Minimal amounts of moisture actually reach the LED's if any.

YES< the lamp it's open in top and to the bottom. The light will shine on both parts.

Yes. You cannot see the bulbs inside of the lamp. The white shade is translucent. It lets light out and is very even.

Well, since my bulbs are installed in a recessed can fixture, I can't vouch for light coming from the bottom; but light output is very much the same as normal incandescent. Instant on and dimmable as well.

No, you would have to take the bottom off. There is very little room to maneuver from the opening on the top, nor can you see down into the fixture, since it's so close to the ceiling. That said, most ceiling fixtures are not left on for hours a day, every day. If you use long life bulbs, you're looking at not having to change them for years.

The bulb is well hidden...although I don't use an energy saving bulb in this fixture. I'm sure it would be fine though.

Be aware... that these bulbs look nice when looking sideways, its beauty does not appears in top view. Consider that in your project.

Not really - I bought exposed filament light bulbs for this thinking it would; however, unless the shade is tilted toward you, you only see a tiny sliver of the bottom of the bulb
