Will this light completely light a 36 inch wide painting?

Not really ... the LEDs aren't quite bright enough and it will really depend on if you have anti-glare glass.

Not sure what you are asking? My light is no more than about 6-8inces wide. It shined on a painting that is about 3 ft by 3 ft. The light is no more than 4 in from top to bottom but it is an arc so hard to tell. Hope this helps.

I don't think that would give you the light that you are looking for. It's very bright but you need to be sitting within 12 inches of the light to get any affect. You would probably want to get a bigger light that was meant for lighting a larger area. This is a great light for light therapy, but not for lighting a whole room. I also think the light bulbs wouldn't last very long in that situation.

I have it on a 24" deep tank and it lights the entire tank end to end and corner to corner. It's a 48"x24"x24" 120g

The bar that attaches to the wall is an inch or less. Just big enough to hold a few batteries. The light extends out around 5-6". Be aware, if you are looking to really light up an object, this light isn't really that bright. It will work for a small painting (12-16" wide x 18-24" L max)

I apologize for the delayed answer. I returned my unit because I didn't think the LEDs were bright enough to light the space I had in mind. I think the unit's LEDs, even if all were lit to yield white, would be washed out by the lights, unless perhaps the 60 watt lamps were quite far from the white wall. If you used only one of R-B-G sections of the Mega Bar, I think the color would show, but the color would be at least somewhat washed out, if not quite pale. Finally, I think the LED technology in this small package needs some growth and improvement, probably with brighter LEDs to begin with.

I just have the squiggle kind in there, probably the one that is equivalent to 100 w. Maybe on the bottom it says what it can take but frankly, the base is too heavy to easily turn over to see. I got it before the LED ones were really widespread. It does not illuminate a wide area; I have it over a table where I have a small sculpture, and it's great for that. If you want a room illuminating light, look for the LeKlint pendant lamps.

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.

Yes it could if you don't prefer a longer, rectangular style... It is moderately bright.

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.

I do not think so based on my use of the light. It work well on small paintings only.

Well, I know the 18 to 24 will be to small for that....so I would do the 24 to 36 but I'm not sure how long the light itself is.

I'm no pro, but i do think it would evenly light that space. The box is about 20"x28"

I'm using 2 36-48" lights for a 72" tank. I have full coverage but have to use two remotes, with 2 control panels - there is not an extra spot to join 2 into one panel.

no it would not look funny would look fine in fact you want one a little bigger because the actual lights on these end about 3-4" from the ends. I have a 36" on my 30" tank looks great.

It will definitely not be enough light, IMO. Light does not penetrate very deep and the light itself is not very wide either.

It's actually a bit small for that...that's the same reason I bought it, but it has not worked out very well for me. The light is very bright, but only if it is directly over your work.
