This light looks considerably smaller than all the others. Is the light field a sufficient size to be effective?

The light field is 2 and a half inches by 4 and a half inches. I believe it could be effective if the angle of the light field was positioned correctly. Although, as I stated in my review of this product, you are not able to adjust the angle or direction of the light. The back of the fixture has a small stand like that of a picture frame. It is not adjustable. The price of a product like this should be about twenty dollars, not upwards of seventy.

Yes, it is. Directions suggest putting light at chest level on an angle to your body so that light is received via your eyes without looking directly into the light.

YES! You will need to sit a little closer to it, so the light hits the retina. Some people need to be in a A WELL LIT ROOM as well (even when using a full sized box) and I wouldn't use it in the dark...but I find it to be equal to any of my boxes and a lot easier to use...portable, too. The price is well worth it.

The light field is plenty big to be effective. This is a very portable light. I use it while working on my computer or reading at my desk in the morning. I could tell the difference in my mood after 3 days of use!

Sorry, but the light output on this "one light" is not strong enough....it would take 3 or more lights and by the time you invest in that much time and money, you could invest in an "electric" spot light....

I can only guess that it would and, for the price and the good return policy, I would suggest you give it a try. The only thing I haven't been able to do is figuring out how to put the batteries in to give the light a try. Even without the light, it works for me. I think you may have your own more powerful "spot" lighting so it may not matter that much to you.

It takes a small bulb to fit, so would check and see if there are any such bulbs made bright enough.

I think light output would be fine, but because it is a linear design not sure it's best choice for a 12x12 cube ... a better choice might be 2 smaller clamp lights, or a tile-shaped light, like the AquaRay Mini 500

The spread is pretty good. It is not a spot beam at all. It might not be as bright as those ugly fans with four lights but it is more than enough light across the whole room.

Would be good for this. It is maybe 15 inches high and maybe 8 inches across at the widest point. It is an LED light, so it is a soft light, rather and a powerful direct bulb. Although, would be cheaper and just as useful to buy a simple flashlight.

Definitely should. It's bright. Safe distance I'd say is within 5' away and giving you a solid 3' wide lighting area. It's a spot light less "fanning" more direct beam.

The picture we light with this is just 24 wide and 30 high. I agree with what T says, it's not going to be enough light on the picture you want. We have other art in our home that we use electrical light fixtures and they work perfectly for something of the size you refer to. One is similar in size to what you mention and we use about a 26/28 inch electrical light on it.

No, this doesn't have much power and it's a pretty small beam of light. You'd need several of these to get enough light for that purpose, in my opinion.

it's not overly big check the dimensions of the light and it's not much bigger...the light itself is great we get a lot of compliments...the only thing I would suggest is to get a zip tie and pull the electric wire tight and attach it to the frame otherwise it's just a crooked wire hanging down...hanging the light went very smooth...good luck

I think this one would work fine. It has 3 globes so it gives a lot of light. They all work off the same electrical box.

I like mine. It's not too bright nor too dull. For the price I'd suggest trying it as you'll never have too much light..

It is a small and effective light- the bulb is not that large- about 2 inches in diameter. I had it a ground level shining up on a pumpkin about 3.5 feet away and it illuminated well at night (not bright like in a spot-light but well lit.)

The bulb is bright for its size. But keep in mind it is smaller then it seems in the picture. It is also not s spot light the light diverges well.I have not burned any of the three I got.

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

The light is focused, yet soft. I use it at my laptop. As a small spotlight at close distance I think it would work if the room is sufficiently dark. I'm trying to imagine how you are going to set it up. As a foot light aimed from the floor or an intervening table. In either case you should not expect good results in a bright room or from a distance. I guess I didn't answer, did I?
