I am wanting to add these under a polyester tablecloth for a wedding. Will they be bright enough and are they cool enough to not catch fire.

I've never noticed them being hot. I can't quite picture what you have in mind for the tablecloth, but I have two strands hanging in our bedroom and it is enough light to read by - so they are fairly bright.

I know they would be bright enough. They lay against vinyl siding type of material in my setup and I've never seen any heat/burn marks. You should call Novelty for the best answer

The threaded area is made of plastic so temperature is their main concern. LED's should be fine.

Good idea. I would pay special attention to where your flame is though. I think you would have a fire hazard on your hands if these got anywhere close to an open flame.

I would say yes. They generate little to no heat and are very light weight. Make sure that you leave clearance on the back of the light. The lights are about 2.5" deep. The blue spring loaded clips are not so strong as to smash a tile.

I would say they would be ok... but word to the wise if you are having an outdoor wedding you might consider something that doesn't melt.

They will supply ample light in that setting. They are very bright LED units. I've used mine at church functions as well as stage settings and it has never disappointed .

Where did you see they were suitable for totally enclosed luminaries? I don't see that anywhere. The heatsinks on them get too hot to touch. These are my first LED bulbs, and from what I've read some get hot and some don't. So I don't know if that is going to affect them; being on all the time, or being totally enclosed. I don't see how the plastic globe part of them doesn't melt unless it's some kind of high-temp plastic.

They don't get hot so I imagine they'd do OK. Not sure how many candelabra base fixtures are available for you to put these in. Many outdoor lamps come pre-installed with LED bulbs these days. I just bought two of them at my local store and they look great.

No they are not that bright . I love them!! I have one outside in a lantern. Two inside in lantern/globes. They are just beautiful at night .

They are not really bright enough for multiple people in a dark setting (like a wedding reception). When I used these for a photo booth application, I also had to have my speedlight flash on the camera - of course the camera was on a tripod to minimize camera shake. If you are using them in a bright space, they should work well. I have successfully used these for photos of couples where you can get the lights real close without worrying about the lights getting in the shot.

yes they would be fine for that. I am wrapping them in a sheer fabric as well and have had them on for about 30 minutes solid not blinking. The led lights do not generate much heat at all.

LED's are fully dimmable and do not create any significant heat - should be A OK in a brown out situation.

They are spot lamps. If you install them you need to make sure that they get enough air to stay cool otherwise they will run themselves hot and break. I do not recommend those as I had purchased about ten- 60% are broke at this point of time. tnx regards//phil

Warm light but still cooler than halogen. These are floods so there will be light splay and some willl reach you height it will not ne concentrated.

They are awfully bright. I can't imagine not covering them. In my landscape lights outside they burn out every four to eight weeks, and are very hot. Hope this helps.

They are rated at 15 watts and don't get nearly as hot as a 65 watt incandescent so there should be no problem

They will still light, even after an extended period of time outside of the foil package. We use them to start our Weber FirePit and I've been careful to pop each cube individually like a pill in a blister pack. My wife thought the foil was supposed to be peeled all the way off the backside, so that is what she did one time. The remaining cubes sat outside in the elements with almost no protection and they still lit as good as if they were still in the foil. They did dry out, but I don't think it affected the lighting of the cube.
