can you put a swivel socket in it so the bulb can be directed to the side somewhat and not only straight down?

I don't think that would work. The housing is just large enough to allow adequate ventilation around the bulb. Maybe 3/16" clearance all around. The heat lamp bulb doesn't direct heat like a light bulb directs light. It tends to radiate in all directions after it exits the fixture.Hope this helps.

I don't think a swivel socket will work. The bulb fits tightly within the diameter of the can. The socket would have to lower the bulb almost the entire length of the can to allow any flexibility (because the bulb is bulky).

no,not enough roomalso,this fixture gets very hot and any modification would have to stand the heat and would probably void any warranty

No. the LED is integral to the unit. This is not a standard socket with a screw-in bulb.

Never thought to try it, but I just did, and yes, you can. It does look a little odd that way, like an upside down funnel. I assume you mean the head of the lamp (and that's what I pointed toward the ceiling in my test), but you can adjust the angles at each of the joints to your wishes.

yes, you can install it face up or down. iI am using CFL bulbs, but not sure about LEds.

There is no reason why you couldn't. The directional lights will make it easy for you to illuminate exactly what you want. You can even do the simple Velcro installation in lieu of screwing it in, since you don't have gravity working against you.

I don't see why not. It depends on the type of shade. As the bulb hangs down from the socket a normal shade would have to be attached upside down.

This adapter connot be pointed straight down...perhaps a bit in excess of 45 degrees for both lights to be pointed in the same direction. One light could be pointed straight down if you were to keep trying different screw-in orientations until you were able to get one socket to end up on the bottom...then that one could be pointed straight down and the other no more than straight ahead. To point them both straight down you would have to buy an additional swivel adapter to go between the socket and this adapter.

No it has to be mounted Horizontally and you have to have Three feet clearance on one side to be able to pull the bulb out to change it.

You can flip the base to the front of the lamp and have it lean forward instead of backward. And you can also use it horizontally or vertically. These are the only adjustments.

You mean without screwing it down? Yes, I believe it will sit on it's base. I'll say that you may not be able to swivel the light too far off center without tipping it over. However, if you need the light to be portable, and you want it to sit upright, you could cut out a piece of wood and attach the light to that.

You can use it in a three way socket, but it will not work as a three way bulb. It will only light at it's full light level.

Yes each bulb assembly has two adjustable angles. First the assembly rotates about 360 degrees where it attaches to the tubing. Second, the bulb rocks a little more than 90 degrees in the two fingers that holds the lamp.

It can be adjusted at different angles, and I currently use it in an application with upright sockets. It does trigger the light to turn on.

Yes. The wires need to be bent back against the sides of the bulb so they make contact with the bulb holder pieces.

This only has a socket for a standard bulb, so no. Unless you use one of those screw-in adapters.

Yes, the light fixture swivels up and down so you can change the angle for different tasks.

I don't know for certain, but my guess is 'No'. The bulb is special one (like the one found in many standing standing lamp models (a tiny tube shape w/ contacts on both ends). Personally, I've never seen a LED bulb in that shape.
