I'm thinking of using this to light the dashboard of my car at night. Would this be too bright at its dimmest setting?

No, it won't be. But I think you need to worry about size than brightness. your dashboard might look cumbersome.

It shouldn't be too bright especially since you can control the angle of the light. Worse case scenario? Try it, and if it doesn't work it's very handy for a lot of other things....or send it back. I think you'll like it.

Probably a good choice for this application. One of the two dimmer settings would probably work well.

I believe for your application would be too bright if lantern was say hanging at eye level if you had it lower than your eyes and made a thin "shade" on 1/2 of the lantern ( I used the back of a note pad ) so light would only come out of the unshielded side instead of 360' might work and say on a bench or table behind you - once your eyes get use to the red it becomes fairly bright for for a single led

I would have to say yes. It gives off about as much light as a dim candle, and flickers as well. I wouldn't say it's completely "safe" to wander around with only this at night, but I manage just fine.

It is quite bright and I guess I will do the job as long is dark enough. But, you will be expending more on batteries, cause once the run down, it wont be as bright.

This light works very well in very dark conditions...an unlit closet or as a motion detecting night light in a dark room. I do not think it will be suitable for the purposes you have in mind.

It is more than bright enough for my moderately dark room. In fact, I have set it to Eco mode to preserve lamp life (and reduce fan noise, which isn't that bad) and even at that reduced setting it is more than bright enough.

No dimming that I know of. I would say that it would probably be too bright for a bedroom.

It would really depend on the lighting effect you desire. Around the entire tv would give it an even and very bright light, but one strip was more than sufficient for what I wanted. Without a dimmer control, that would be too much room for my taste as I like to use it in a dark room. Best advice I can give is try using a similar light source, maybe an led flashlight, and play with the placement. I actually mounted mine below the tv onto the cabinet it sits on.

Depends on how much light you want for the area....I have it in my garage, and it generates enough light to ensure that I don't trip over any tools but it is much dimmer than a standard 60W bulb

Probably bright enough depending on how bright you need it. Would recommend at least two.i.have two in a 3x2 cabinet and it is plenty bright

The cord is black The light has a dimmer type switch. I would think it would be bright enough for your use.

I would not recommend it in a room that is not dark. The LED is good, but it is does not do well in a lit room.

my opinion it is quite bright. It can make driver noticeable in suburb dark street. and many flush settings can help too.

I don't know if it's dimmable but it's not very bright so I don't think it would be necessary to dim it. It's puts off just enough light in an outdoor night setting. It looks great.

It's going to depend on the bulbs you use. I have day light LED lights in mine and it gives off a lot of light. Very bright.

yes it is plenty bright. We even put a dimmer switch on ours so we could adjust the light.

I think it should be fine. Against a off-white wall, it's very good and used with a proper screen it's very bright. So much so that I run it in economy mode to preserve the lamp.
