I am planning to use it in a high hat luminaire, is that acceptable? Also what is the angle of dispersion of the light output?

yes, I land the light in a 6" air tight cone and It is perfect for 120 angle and you can dim it to the darkness you wish. I have try too many lights but this one I give an A+.

ps: setting distance for the first light is 7ft from the wall and every 5ft apart. The cone is 3 dollars. There is an adapter if you want to lower the bulbs. I check the temperature is 76 degree is Fahrenheit (°F). hope this help.

Hi Lee,As long as the luminary is not fully enclosed(has some way to vent out heat,) and is slightly larger than the dimensions listed on the product page, it should work fine. These are designed to fit recessed lights, so there should not be an issue. Also, it is a technically a flood, so it disperses close to 180 degrees.Thanks,G7 Power

Yes, that's exactly what I use it for. You need to be able to position the lights at least about 3-4 feet from your face, otherwise they will overexpose. As long as you have that room (and I managed it in a very small area - they only take up about 2-3 square feet each), it'll work!

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 should be fine in a desk lamp. I used mine in a wall mounted light fixture. It works well and the price was great.

It would work well at that height for a small area and be very bright directly underneath. The higher you mount the more the light will spread. I think 14 ft is optimum. Mine are mounted at 15ft and spaced about 10ft apart. Very uniform light configured like that.

If mounted reasonably high it will do it. Whilst the light is very bright at the source, the area it illuminates could be described as a reasonable but soft light. Happy with mine

I think it would make a pretty good light, bu you might need to prop it up on something to get the right angle. I have tried it and found that it is a really good light and I will be buying another!

My wife uses the light for reading (she has early stage Macular degeneration). She thinks the light should be fine for your application. The gooseneck is capable of a fairly wide range of vertical positions although it is a bit stiff (probably good) and the base is nice and heavy so that the light is stable in all positions. The quality if high and it assembles easily and quickly. I hope that helps you decide.Ed Getchell

It should work fine in that application. The mounting end of the bracket is about 1.5" x 7/8" and it can mount and allow the light to be angled and then tightened into fixed position.

At about 10 feet, the 127 light is about 5 feet wide and very direct. Insanely bright, and almost uncomfortably so. Double the distance, and you are looking at 1/4 the intensity, but with a 15 to 20 foot spread. It's hard to tell as I don't have a way to test it well right now. It is still rather bright at 15 feet as far as I've noticed. I hope this helps. This would not be a good light to illuminate a whole stage as it is very spot on. I have two right now, and they are actually really good spots for a small 20ft x 15ft to mid sized 30ft x 20ft stage. They need to be at least 8 feet away in my opinion. They also have some really good "sound motion" settings. You will be happy with these lights. At about 10 feet, the 127 light is about 5 feet wide and very direct.

It depends. I use it in about 1.5 m. In hard cases you can use additional LED emitter connected by a wire.

I don't know, as the package (tossed long ago) did not, I believe, have the lumens listed. But I can tell you that while it is suitable for an "under the counter" or display case light (actually a bit bright for that second purpose when used in a dark area or at night, depending on how close the objects are), it would not light an area nor substitute for the usual incandescent or neon type bulb. I use a similar one as a secondary light over a work bench in the garage to cover dark areas, eliminate shadow, and another similar one over my computer area. Westek also makes several units which are carried by OSH Hardware and Home Depo, where you may be able to find lumens listed, or compare their units to others.

That varies somewhat depending on your needs. On the high mode, it outputs about as much light as two of the old-fashioned 60 watt incandescent bulbs. I find that to be enough for my approximately 16 foot by 16 foot living room, but if I'm at my desk, which is in the corner next to the light (and thus not as well lit by it), I generally use a task light as well.

No I do not think this light would work well for that. It is bright but only for a small circle area under its top. The light doesn't project well. I think you would be straining your eyes.

It's not meant to illuminate a room by itself, if that helps to answer your question. Obviously, the higher the lumens/watts. the brighter it will be. Hope that helps?

Because its wide angle, it does pretty good in normal inside room lighting. It is about 160º wide angle I think. About equal to a 22mm. Hope this helps.

The angle is not very wide, if wide at all. I am using 4 of these light one side of my house. They act more like floodlights, From a distance of about 20 ft. the lighted area is about 5 to 7 ft. wide (that is the area where most of the light is concentrated). The angle of illumination is about 15-25 degrees
