Is the "hood" over the light strip removable? It looks like it might be from the pics, but I can't tell for sure.

the hood isnt removable, i think they just used the light was based off of their longer retro fit lights, but they epoxied the hood on

the 'hood' does not seem to be removable, and the LEDs are exposed, but look to be sealed well.

The rounded "hood" is attached to the heat sink around the light strip and what holds the unit to the arm. It does appear that it may slide out and I tried to move it some, but I did not want to break it. It definitely doesn't slide out easily after a year or more of use. It might be glued in from the manufacturer, as it comes almost completely assembled.

The light must be installed , unless you want to leave the iner wires and worings of the fixture exposed since no cover plate is included. It is a cosmetic issue..

The whole light flips up and you can remove the glass easily with the light flipped up or down.. however I do personally take it off during maintenance, because it always seems to get in my way.

Yes it is removable. I did not use that piece when I mounted the light to our pole.

Hi Christine, There is a ring on the top of the lens, you have to remove it to place the Hood. Best Juan

Hi aquagirl, If you are looking for a hood that can hold lights etc, this isn't it. This is strictly the glass cover that goes on top of the tank. It's glass with a plastic attachment on one side that you can cut in to guide tubed and cables in the tank.

I believe so. The strips are not heavy...although this comes with hardware to install.....i didn't want to use as i am not sure i want to leave them where they are now.......so i used clear packing tape. perfect. i did not tape over the little led lights....just along side. The on/off switch, however, i did not tape. It is setting on the counter. Very bright warm light! Love it!

I do not see any way to get to the light. The instruction book says NOT to remove the plastic cover below the light. There is a number in the instruction book to call for customer service. Sorry no help here.

Good morning, I have not attempted to remove the led from the spotlight so I cannot tell you Patrick. Additional information might be found on the "Streamlight" web site. Good luck, Mike

There is a small inner nylon rectangular cloth that is attached by Velcro, so yes, if you don't want to use it, it can be removed. If you don't want the outside white front but want the black sides (lined with "foil" on the inside) you can do that too. I think the biggest surprise was the type of light bulb it came with, the squiggly fluorescent looking ones, but they are as bright as they say they are and I have no complaints.

No it snaps into the strip on the hood. Easy to install. Just remove clear plastic cover remove old one and snap in new one. My tank had a extra spot for a third light.

Yes the hood arrives requiring some assembly, I didn't use the lamp on mine because I already had a brighter more efficient LED. Hope this helps. Good luck.

Hi Sam, I left the existing metal housing intact, and only replaced the regular light fixture cover.

It is a chrome piece that helps reflection of LED's. I don't think it's removable.

While you can remove the plastic assembly by unscrewing the little black Phillips head screw on the front face of the light, it is a troublesome process that -- after purchasing the battery and fiddling with replacing it -- isn't worth it.I've gone through three Photon lights, and purchasing a new one for 10 bucks every year or so isn't a big deal to me.

No. It is an odd design for that reason. But, it looks great. I'm going to have to add a light switch to the wire into the lights.

I don't know I have gotten rid of it because the light went out on the hood and it is rounded in the front and I could not find the hood
