Can you tell me how wide the clamp can open? I have a tiled BBQ island with grill. I need the clamp to open at least 3 inches for this light to work

Yes you will have plenty of space it has an adjustable opening that goes to amost 6 inches

Not 3 1/8", as posted. 2 1/2" to slide on, maybe 2 3/8" to give the screw a slight turn and make it tight.

The clamp - at its widest opening - is about 3 inches and has rubber tips on the inner grip. The lamp is a little under two pounds. I have mine attached to a flat, wooden surface. I really don't know how it will work on a metallic tube shape that might be somewhat slippery. The grip seems fine for my purpose.

The Blackfire light has 2 green legs so that it can stand on a flat surface. They will prevent a 1-1/2" pipe from entering the clamping portion. However,if the 2 green legs were removed, you might have it work for you. I believe the legs could be easily removed. The are each held by a single pin that I believe could be removed. Should you desire more information, I can give you my phone number to call. Earl

Dear CVH, I checked to verify my memory, and I think the width of the jaws is wider than I originally intimated. It should have no trouble opening wide enough for 1/2 inch, but I still have reservations about its ability to effectively light bright enough. The nice thing about this lamp is that it would make a terrific light for reading, on a portable desk.

I have three of them for my pontoon boat which has 1" wide rails. The clamp at it's maximum opening is 1 3/4" inch. Hope that helps.

It will open about 2 1/2 inches, clamps fine on my laminate bar, its almost 2 inches wide

I'm not sure what you mean, but the light is 3 5/8 inches in diameter. The hole for attaching it (with a screw or nail) on the backside of the light, is at 2 1/2 inches from one edge, and 1 1/4 inches from the opposite edge. If you have 2 1/2 inches, either you cannot use it or you will have some overhang. I hope that helps, and hope you can use it -- it is a good little light.

I have it mounted on a 2 inch metal railing, but that is the max to clamp onto. It opens just over 2 inches wide.

The clamps will open fully about 3 1/4 inches. If your overhang is about 4 inches before the lip you would be fine.

It will handle 2" stock, but I not sure if they will open up to 3 1/2". The clamps are @ a different location so I can't measure them.

I think is 3/4" but the spring is really strong and it will hold the light with no problem.....great lighting for the money

Mine came with a vice clamp and it opens wide enough for me to use on my butcher block island. This island is much thicker than the Corian one I had in my other house.

The clip opens about an inch. It should be able to fit a 3/4" thick wood surface but I do not know how secure it would be. If you can make it fit, I think it would be an ideal reading light.

Looks like the widest it opens is about 3.75".... I would say 3.5" to be safe.

On the Stokes website they say this - "The Clamp-On Deck Hook easily attaches to horizontal deck rails ranging in size from 3/4″ to 2″ thick...".So that's is "just" too small. You could probably just put a plywood shim in it.

I just now measured the clamp for you and it can easily clamp 6" The opening was 6 3/8". Hope this helps. These are great clamps and I use them all the time.

Dear Ms. Aaberg, Unfortunately, the bottom opening width is not something that this manufacturer specifies. However, in lighting items like this, the width they provide is most often the overall width at it's widest point. For more detailed information, we would need to contact ELK directly. If you would like for us to do so, please let me know. Sara Goedekers.com Customer Service
