This is not a good purchase if you are looking for illumination. The lights work great for us because we use them to indicate the location of the side of the driveway. I doubt you could even read a map under the amount of light they put out, and they probably have a radius of only 6 to 8 feet of any meaningful light. They are attractive and serve their purpose for us, but the posts will probably need painting in another year and we have only had them for a year.

About 40 ft apart. These lights are more indicators than fully illuminating lights such as if you want to really light up your lawn. I use mine at the end of the driveway to mark the entrance.

The lamps give so little illumination that you would need to place them every 2-3 feet! The lamp was a bad purchase for me . It serves no practical lighting purpose (but it looks lovely in daylight....)

Alot depends on the size of the existing lamps (PAR38 100w?) and the height at which the fixture will be placed. Since it sounds as though this is for the function of the deck Vs just security I would go with a higher output. Haveing said that I would definetly reccommend LED for energy conservation and they attract "less" bugs. Good Luck

it puts out an initial 16,000 lumens. but the light fades very quickly. the good news is that there's no heat generated from the bulbs, so they can be close to the plants. I recommend about 2-3 inches away (no further) from the foliage. I will also add that I was skeptical about fluorescent lighting systems entirely, until it tried these. I am impressed. just keep them close to the plants. (-:

The answer is simply: not very far. If you use all The lighting units in the set and assuming there's no other significant source of light you'll need to be less than 8 to 10 feet max from the subject

The spacing between lights is up to you. Since these are standard 120V fixtures, they take standard 40W, or 60 W incandescent bulbs (if you can still find them) or the LED bulbs I use to replace standard base 67W bulbs. The lamps that line my walkway are spaced only about 6 feet apart because I want a lot of light on the path where I expect guests to walk. On my dock, they are 30 feet apart. Your choice.

None that I am aware of at present. I installed my Full Spectrum Light Bulbs (ALZO 45W CFL) in light sockets without a globe or shade (not my original plan). Used in this fashion they throw a lot of light as long as you aren't too concerned about appearances.One is mounted horizontally and another vertically. Both have been in service since the beginning of this year without any problem.

You don't have to be too far away. It's a great little lamp. I got it for a bedroom for the grandchildren for sleepovers. I placed it on the night stand next to the bed. Also would be great if you should loose electricity.

Doubt they will illuminate that far away. You'll need something more powerful.

I would safely say it could illuminate around 20 x 20 feet. This all depends how high you mount the light. It is very bright and I'm super pleased with mine!

No problem. If I point the lamp straignt down, I can get it to throw a 14" diameter circle of bright light. If I angle it to the side a bit the spot becomes an oval easily over 2 feet wide and 3 feet long. This lamp is a spot light that makes a great task light, but it doesn't contribute much to lighting a room. Without another lamp near by, there is a spot of bright light and not much else.

It will depend on how you adjust the lights. We installed it above a garage door. It lights an area of about 30Ft x 40Ft quite brightly. I believe if we tilted the lights more straight out it would illuminate an even larger area, if it was needed. Hope that helps.

When placed at the edge of a sidewalk, the bright part of the light is about 18 inches. The "glow goes ago another 10 inches. I'm going to replace the bulbs with LED.

Depends Bro on how HIGH you want to illuminate. I have a 20w aimed up from the BASE of 15ft. native Oak Tree here and I'd estimate it illumintaes the trunk of it effective about 12 ft, up and a catches SOME of the lower foliage. If the thing is one of those like 50 ft. palms like I had at me house in Fl. yrs. ago at LEAST 50w if it's the canopy you want to illuminate and you'll catch a good bit of the trunk, but the higher canopied tress like those Stick Palms you're gonna be hard pressed to light the very top/s IF that's what you're after. Funny thing is w/these maibu lights the higher wattage lamps/light actually seem to last damn near forever. Depends Bro on how HIGH you want to illuminate.

You will have to attach a cord with a plug on it to the wires on the back of the lamp assembly. Ideally, it should be wall mounted and wired to a circuit with a switch.

These are large lamps. I measured the one of mine that is the shortest distance to the ceiling and it is over 7 inches. The one facing at the most downward angle is over a foot to the ceiling. So if I understand what you are asking it would be to large.

Not really, If your lamp holder lets you you can aim the light a little, but remember you can attach this to either side or front/back so, you are able to put the light where you want it.

It was advertised to illuminate at a distance of 50'. I need it to illuminate at 10' and it is insufficient at that.
