I haven't installed my lights yet, but based on the size of the light bundle, it looks like it could be too much. Sorry I can't be of more help.

To verify appropriate cord length, you might try a test by covering your tree with a string & measuring length of string used.The lights are pretty bright. I have them along a deck railing. Pluses are low power consumption and durability. They are so much better made than your typical Christmas tree lights.

I don't think that it would be too many..I have six strands wrapped around a grapevine which meanders up and around my front door and down both side light windows on either side of the door. The area is about six feet wide and about 10 feet of grapevine on either side of the side windows. It is a nice welcoming light at night. It is protected by a covered front porch. The lights themselves are bright but small bulbs. You might start with one strand and see if it is enough for your small tree. Hope this helps.

Oh No .... I have mine IN a basket with tall twigs (not on the twigs) the light is perfect and the color is awesome. YOU WILL BE HAPPY WITH PURCHASE

Depends on how far the flag was from the light, and how bright you want it..but I would think this might be a bit weak....maybe go for the 30 watt one, that will light it up for sure. How tall is your flag?

This model is a bit small for your area of cacti. I would recommend locating a larger light that can cover more square footage.

Yes. The light will illuminate the branches. Looks great when the light sort of bends around the branches giving you a 3 day effect. Looks fantastic!

No this light will not be right for that if the goal is only to light the book as this will easily light a cone that extends 10-15 feet in front of you while running/walking/working at night. It's very bright and works to light the area not spot in front of you.

I really don't think one would light much. We use it to light a aluminum Christmas tree works well, but not great. would work well as a disco light color changer in a multi-light set-up, I believe.

Hi MaryKate: I don't recommend this product. It gives off very little light. I regret having bought it. It is purely decorative. Certainly not functional. I have it placed on the wall in lieu of a picture. Appx 9" across the top and 8" high.

Depends Bro on how HIGH you want to illuminate. I have a 20w aimed up from the BASE of 15ft. native Oak Tree here and I'd estimate it illumintaes the trunk of it effective about 12 ft, up and a catches SOME of the lower foliage. If the thing is one of those like 50 ft. palms like I had at me house in Fl. yrs. ago at LEAST 50w if it's the canopy you want to illuminate and you'll catch a good bit of the trunk, but the higher canopied tress like those Stick Palms you're gonna be hard pressed to light the very top/s IF that's what you're after. Funny thing is w/these maibu lights the higher wattage lamps/light actually seem to last damn near forever. Depends Bro on how HIGH you want to illuminate.

My guess is this one will be too bright for you. It's almost too bright for us. There's no way it's the "very dim" you're looking for. We finally gave up looking for a dim one and settled for this. (At least it's cute.) Good luck!

That should be no problem - I have one on a weeping cherry tree and it lights up the whole tree.

I think it's something in between. I use it to illuminate a flag and it gets a lot of the trees next to the flag. It seems bright to me, but I'm not lighting a sign or something that would need to be read. I'm confident it will work for your application.

If yours isn't doing like this video at the beginning then return it. It should look like lighting in the sky quick flashes etc...Hope it helps...really is a great light! http://youtu.be/CZXFgRxgj34

That size sounds about correct. They are very nice at night. I put mine on a dimmer. Not as bright and anoying and full on with the high beams on. Street signs seem to jump right out on high.

This tree is very bright when lit. I don't know if it can be used with a dimmer. I am using my tree outside but in all honesty if you can't use a dimmer with it this would not be the tree for you is you want subtle light. I am disappointed in one thing with this tree. I have it outside and the flower petals which are clear acrylic are beginning to turn yellowish. I would return it but don't think that is an option as I discarded the box before they started turning. Hope this helps with your decision.

The light is cold white. I have them shining on the base portion of two larger trees. I don't think there would be an issue with a tree of that height. They work great for me. The light is bright enough also. I wouldn't want it any brighter for my purpose.

I have 4 of them around my pond area and they light up the trees. I had ordered 2 then ordered another 2 more. I do like them not sure how well they hold up over time. They are the strongest ones I have ever purchased. they also make a Lattern path light that is unbeliveable that sells for 20 dollars amazon is not carrying it yet. Oh yes the will stay on for about 8 hours to.

No, the two days it worked, it did not illuminate by medium size tree. Then it quit working altogether....not worth it1
