Could I use this light to illuminate my flag outdoors...is it bright enough and will reach about 10 feet?

Will do the job perfectly. I have mine on the backyard for about 8 momths and worth every penny

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.

Yes it is bright enough for that task. I have two of them and they light up most of the front of my house.
264583
Yes it is. You can also install it much farther, in order to get dim illumination. This fixture is a flood light, with a very wide angle of illumination, so maybe at 10 feet you may get more than 10 feet wide of light.

I light my deck with one from 15 feet it up it goes out over 20 ft out . You think the sun was still up . it a flood light not a spot
264585
Yes, that would be a perfect use for the 30 watt as the light is pure white and easily reaches over 10 feet.
264586
YES! Are there neighbors nearby? Really, this is very bright. If the flag is ten feet away you might consider lower wattage (at least the next size down). You'll be pleased with the light color as it is a true white. That'll keep the colors bright! Good luck!

That's going to depend on how dark the subject is. It works great at arms length. 12 feet as the other commenter said? That would be pushing it I think. Maybe as a minor fill light, but not as a primary light.

It should be suitable for anything outdoors. Given that it has no light source I would recommend 2 IR lights as well to be able to see a bit farther. The battery lasts fairly long, I had it running for 2 hours straight and didn't have to change it.

I feel that it is a very bright light, I use it to light up an American Flag. However, it only lasts about 4 hours. Hope this helps.

It's probably bright enough, but it is a cheap China made product. Mine has not had a problem yet,but I'm sure it will in time. If you want it to last buy a more quality product. I have mine just for fun and it works well! Hope this helps.

I bought this light to illuminate my American flag on the pole in the front yard. It gives a very bright light, considering it is only a 75 watt but even though it does a great job of making the flag look beautiful at night, the light does spill over onto the house somewhat. It is not a tight spot, yet I would not consider it a flood. It lights the flag and part of the upper house. I have it aimed at the flag from a short side distance so that could make a difference. There is no electricity available right at the flags base so had to do it this way. The bulbs are readily available in Home Depot for a little over $5.00 It would cover a 10' width easily, and a little more. Very bright.

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.

I mounted mine directly to existing mount for light below eves of home to illuminate backyard. No real mounting height recomendations came with. I'd sy no higher than 20'feet. If go that high you will be amazed of how large an area you will illuminate.

I have this attached to side of my deck to illuminate my outside walkway to the side of the house, about 25 feet. The bracket is not so rigid, so, it can be slightly bent to adjust. I have mine twisted slightly so that motion about 10 feet out will trigger the light. My second one is attached to my stair railing and all 12 steps get lite quite adequately even on an overcast day. This is not overly bright, you probably could not read by the light, but it is sufficient to make you aware of obstacles you might trip on.

Yes it will. I use my MicroSolsr light to illuminate our flag. You will find it suitable as a landscaping light.

Yes, it will light up the 5 X flag. Same height as our pole. It is noticeable at night. As the wind moves the flag outward, the flag may be out of the light at times... We don't mind this.

It'll reach out to 100 yards no problem. It's comparable to a 1-2 million candle power old school one. Stay with this 10W 5 W no so bright. I use them for deer tracking and spotting. Super light and it seems to run a long time. I used mine for over an hour this season.

I had two of these running 410 Lumen 7Watt MR16 LED bulbs and they were more than adequate for my 18-20ft flag. One would have been enough but I wanted even lighting as I have a corner lot.

Hi Mark,It is really more of a flood light than spot light. I am using one to illuminate my American Flag at night. I had to mount it a lot closer than I had planned with a spot light. I hope this helps.Bob

As mentioned, this light will light up the retinas of animals, probably at 400 yards. But you're not going to recognize your friends or read a billboard at that distance. I took mine to a golf course when I got it and it's amazing. It will easily light up an oak tree at about 200 yards. It'a good light. I recommend it.

The light is bright enough to illuminate a front door area. You should consider how you will be placing the light with respect to the motion sensor. I had this light at my front door but I placed it to high so the motion sensor lost its range. It worked for me but I have re-located this light to my garage.

I would not recommend it outside. However, I am disappointed in the light itself. It's not a "wow" light. It's small and not made as nicely as I would have expected. It's just an okay light! I hope that helps!
