How well would light pass through these? I have a sun catcher project these might be good for and am looking for a stained glass effect.. Thanks!

Okay, I bought three different agate orders at the same time, so I get confused on which one is which. However, all three orders are of lovely clarity. You cannot see through them, as expected, but the light comes through beautifully. I have them all on strings hanging in my window, so yes, they'd work nicely for a sun catcher project. Be aware that they are fragile (I had three break), so you need to be careful if you cut them to shape.

Sorry, wish I could help. I bought those for my grand daughter who is into rock collecting. The ones I got are very nice, and they may look good as sun catchers, but we have not held them up to the light nor a window.

Michelle Yes the passes through real good and I was pleased with my order. Good luck on your project . Rehba

The age slices are very small and thin, so I'm not sure whether they could take drilling. Light shows through about 3/4 of them, but the slices are not brilliant.

These are great for providing some splashes of color on you and or the curtains behind you. You would need more if you want to light the band up. You would need to hang them from a higher spot to do that kind of lighting. Not sure what you are looking for/trying to accomplish. Give me just a little more detail.

These are very SMALL quantities to use on walls, so I assume you're doing small designs? I don't see why they wouldn't be just fine--they are acrylic and would behave as they do on paper or any other object being decorated. I do not have a value for how long they would last, but keeping designs out of direct sunlight should help--and away from tiny hands too!.............m

The sun doesn't shine through .. I would recommend plants that do well in the shade for under the sail. I am not putting my sail up this year because it did not hang properly and sagged in the middle.

Jon - Yes, all of our materials (other than rear projection film) block essentially all light from passing through. This material will work great for going over a window. Thanks!

You could get a different color/spectrum. Most like HPS for flower. The better the light penetration the better flower.

The roof panels are translucent.............. so they will not provide complete shade; you will get diffused sunlight similar to the effect of frosted glass.

I think the light these give off are nice. Not so yellow looking. For K do your own research. Good Luck

Personally I think these give off an artificial yellowy tinted light. I would suggest going with a different bulb if you're looking for a natural quality to the light it produces.

I think they are perfect. They let in some light but not blackout. Especially when the sun is shining. I got mine from the Warehouse so they weren't in perfect shape but I'm satisfied. They glue on the top & I was afraid they might fall but as long as you make sure woodwork isn't dirty and follow instructions, should be ok. Mine have stayed up for 2 years now. What I love is you just push them up 7 pull down with the lightest touch. Can't promise they'll be to your liking but I like mine.

I have an Agrosun FLC32D grow light next to me as I write--it's in a standard-size table lamp with an ivory fabric shade covering it. I've had really good results with these. My place is surrounded by trees, so it's dark inside. I haven't had a plant in the living room die from lack of light since I bought these. Occasional inattention, yes; lack of light, no.

Mine are on my patio and do not receive direct sunlight, but they must get enough diffused light because they work great and I have had them almost a year. My only complain is the colors fade after a while, but that doesnt matter as much when the lights are on, and for the price they are great!

Light will come through somewhat, but it is diffuse. This is more of a privacy screen, and light will also show over the top, especially if you have an overhead light.

Our's are mounted at the front of the cabinets which puts them over the middle of the countertops. The lip at the bottom of the cabinets then shields the lights from view. They give plenty of light for that setup, but can't say for sure how they would do from the back. I would guess they would be OK but they might be too visible. Hope that is of some use.

Absolutely. They reflect the light very well. I use mine in a crystal bowl for decorating.

They are pretty bright. It can lighten up a dark room. You can see it clearly out in the sun.

Depends upon whattage of light used. As with all lamps light is directed down and out. Not much through shade as it is dark, but very nice to look at. More decorative than providing a lot of light.
