Any recommendations on which light to use? I have a few lights but they are all over 1" diameter. Thank you

The Elzetta is a really nice flashlight. I have it on my Mossberg shotgun. Another good choice that I have is a Red line 1X4x Zoom. It's really bright and a little bit bigger than the Elzetta. Both are excellent.

I used the streamlight "strion" LED rechargeable. I am very pleased both with the Elzetta light holder and the streamlight strion. I have had this set-up for over a year now and have had zero issues. I got the Elzetta holder that has the quick release feature. I recommend this, although I have only removed my flashlight a few time for recharging it has made it very convenient. When your life is on the line don't go cheap.

It depends on the particular platform you want to use it on. Surefire obviously makes a good light, but do ask a lot of money for them! Mag light also is good. You will find that quality over quantity will win in this, because if you go cheap, you'll pay in the end.

Make sure the base of the light is small enough. Some of the cheaper lights have a larger base that what the mount can hold

I have a 110 4ft by 3ft i bought two of them. You can't go wrong. They are a great light.

I would get two lights, one for each tray if that is your only choice and within budget. Definitely grab a reflector hood too. Although 1 bulb could work, I feel that 1 bulb would be bare minimum and you would want to move the trays around to help distribute the light evenly in a 1 light set up. I personally use 3 of these lights for 1 tray, for max/best results. But then I tend to over do things. =) Good luck!

I have not used my light yet, but it came with screws, but I would consider mounting tape if needed since light is so lightweight. I agree with other customer, that the light is not very bright and illuminates only a small area. I kept product and will eventually find an appropriate place for it. Good luck.

Any light with a 4" will work check COSTCO OR HOME DEPOT. COSTCO HAS THE BEST PRICE.

McKAy105, Did you buy this? I am shopping for LED lighting for my 30" deep 150g tank, and would love feedback or other recommendations! Thanks!

I have used a 100 watt in it for a long time and then I got a chrome played 75w bulb (totally worth it) which made the light not as bright due to the chrome. That's the last thing you have to consider with the high watt bulbs, will you really want to sit under it? It's so bright I get headaches from regular bulbs

It's a 1.170 diameter. I don't use mounts for lights, I just hold it in a way I see works nice. That being said, if I wanted to rig this or any big light on, I'd use modified rings with the right diameter hose clamps. Problem solved for most lights.

They use the small base lights, not a normal lamp light size like the width of your ring finger tip. I don't know the proper name for the size just what it looks like.. Hope it helps

I'm using a 600 watt light. It will work very well. On Amazon there are also square LED lights that really work well. They are a little more expensive but they are superb.

Sorry dude, but lights are crap. Throw them away and bite the bullet and get streamlights or pelican

Sorry, I bought the light for someone else and I can't get an answer out of them. If it were any other business besides Amazon I'd tell you to buy it anyway and return it later if it doesn't work, but Amazon is a nightmare if you want to return anything. Good luck!

Try that clear battery sleeve. I haven't used aaa battery's in mine yet. I ordered extra 3.7. them large batteries. For maximum light output

I haven't installed my lights yet, but based on the size of the light bundle, it looks like it could be too much. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I used a 4' diameter parabolic reflector which lit up approx 8' x 8' area when hung 8' above the floor. The reflector that comes with the package would only light up a 6' x 4' area @ most.

Check you Lighting Center, I'm sure someone there could help you, Or any Home depot or Lowes they both have centers, good luck.

I'm not sure what you mean, but the light is 3 5/8 inches in diameter. The hole for attaching it (with a screw or nail) on the backside of the light, is at 2 1/2 inches from one edge, and 1 1/4 inches from the opposite edge. If you have 2 1/2 inches, either you cannot use it or you will have some overhang. I hope that helps, and hope you can use it -- it is a good little light.
