can this light be used indoors. I want to light bookcases about 10 feet away. This will be mounted on a wall about 10 feet high

Very bright & hot We had to adjust direction on our covered deck to avoid looking directly at lights.

The housing of this light gets extremely hot. I would not use it indoors. It is also extremely bright for indoor use.

It depends on how high you mount your light....I placed mine @ 15 feet high..and it is bright in a 12-15 ft. area...of course the higher you place it the less brightness you would have...although you could cast more softer light over a larger area..Hope that helps you..

As far as I know, the only reason this wouldn't be meant for indoors is because most indoor light sockets would be hooked up to a 120 volt system and these bulbs are 12 volts. Our light fixtures are 12 volts (we have solar power in our house) and we use these lights indoors. As long as whatever you're plugging them into is also 12 volts it shouldn't be a problem.

You should be able to put this light anywhere, as long as you can wire it into the ceiling. Typically we recommend having an electrician do it.

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.

Yes, this should work for an indoor fixture. I've used it in a kitchen ceiling can, over a counter, and it's practically indistinguishable from the R20 halogen it replaced, except that it doesn't dim quite as low. Make sure it's the color you want -- this one is warm white, 2700K.

I have only used this indoors. Our electrician never got the light to function without flickering so I really could not recommend this unit.

Brightness is personal preference. You might be fine with it, and another person may not be. So unfortunately I'm unable to answer that.keep in mind that the directions explain that the light should not be directly in front of you. So you might want to place the light in the corner of your desk.

We put the light in our bedroom, only 8 ' high ceilings. I took a large amount of chain off. I think there was enough chain for you put it lower over a table. I enjoy the light. I guess you could always return it if it is NOT long enough for a high ceiling dining room. Good luck.

If I Understand Your Question Correctly & You Place The RiteLight Above The Painting On The Same Wall, No It Wont Work Because The Lights Themselves Wont Rotate To A 90 Degree Angle.If You Place Your Painting On The Wall & Then Place The RiteLite In The Same Direction As The Painting Is Hanging On The Wall On The Ceiling And At Least 1 Ft Away From The Painting Itself, It Will Work Just Like The Lighting You See In In A Gallery Or Museum. PS I Would Screw The Fixture To The Ceiling.

No. I love this light, but do not think it would be good for reading unless there are other iight sources in the room.

I think you could. I'm using two to illuminate a large rock with my address engraved on it. Two of them light the area up very brightly. 10 feet shouldn't be a problem. One note - the cord is pretty short, you'll need a junction box with a weatherproof cord connector to install correctly.

I think it is great at close range in a well lit room which is how I use it. If you would like to be 10ft away and the lights are dim I am sure it would be just fine.

My son is a licensed electrician and he states it is designed to wire into an electrical box in the ceiling. It does not have a long enough wire to plug into the wall. It would require rewiring the entire light, but - of course - it would void the manufacturers warranty.

we have been using it as a night light and i would say it is almost too bright at full intensity. it illuminates the ceiling brightly even with the room lights on. not sure how you need to use it, several feet easily. 10w is quite allot for LED sure you'll be happy.

Hi Becky, this light is quite large, and peobably meant for at least 9-10 ft ceilings. I do know when I was looking for this one, there are other products like it on a smaller scale, on the market, that would work fine. Usually Amazon has 'others you might like' listed when you Re reviewing this item. I would suggest the smaller size and you would be just fine:)
