Good for unlit paths?

Yes...I have been biking 20 years with significant night road bike rides of 20-60 miles. This is a good light. You can ride 15-17mph with confidence.

I use the light on lit and unlit roads where it is very good. I do not ride off-road.

I use the light on unlit forest paths and is a good choice. Very bright with good illumination forward and adequate amounts of light to the side.

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.

It is! It doesn't light up far ahead of cart but is plenty bright to drive 10 mph. I use them often and never had any trouble seeing the road. If you're really concerned buy the version with twice the output if you have money to blow.

I ride a road bike but have used this at night on a tree covered trail that goes through the country side in the rain for a 25 mile ride 5 times a week. It does have multiple brightness settings. I ride a paved trail, I can see sticks, small animals on side of trail but it is flat. Not sure how shadows would show for bumps or dips in dirt.

Any sign that is reflective will really be lit up like there was a bright fixed light source on it with just one of these lights. I actually use two of these simultaneously and they light thing up the road well well. I have one set for about bright 30-40 coverage and the second for further down the road. They are pretty economical in battery use (2 AA).

I think it really depends on where you plan on installing it; if you are looking to brightly illuminate an area, then this is a poor choice. However, if you are looking to provide "some lighting" where you can (at least) see around, then this is fine. I use mine on a balcony where I wanted some soft lighting to enjoy my view of the stars without attracting unwanted pests. I found this lighting perfect for my desires.

Night vision works pretty well. It's a small screen. I would not use it to try to find my way in the dark, but you can see objects.

Sorry, really have no idea. I suppose that it's bright enough to light a path, but not a long one. We use them on our old gas lamp poles, which we had for purely decorative purposes. I'd say that they fall between our first gas lamps, which were equipped with two mantles, and could be fairly bright, and our last ones, which had the flame burner, not the mantles, and were not bright at all.

They should be very good for either. I have used mine mostly outdoors, when the light is low.

We have not tried that before. Although they are bright and flicker like real candles but it may not bright enough to light a walkway. It also depends on how bright you want. In very dark place, it real give enough light for that as some customers did use them as night lights when feeding their new born babies at night time. Hope this may help. Thanks for your question.

It isn't bad in low light, just use a wide angle lens to use as much light in the area as possible and you shouldn't have any problems.

Hi Richard! I highly recommend for outside. It was the main reason I purchased this projector. Dusk works fine. Keep in mind though that any projector still passes the film through light so the darker it is outside the better the image. Oh and I highly recommend connecting a wii or other gaming device for larger than life play. Mario Kart is AMAZING ! Enjoy!

bright enough to illuminate sections that are either 1. too far from a light source 2. blocked by my body while blowing - while I don't "need" the light, it's useful to help avoid protruding points (eg. rocks stair corners, etc...) that I might miss if i didn't have the light.

If they are installed properly , with a good base such as sand , they might work as a path . Riding mower would probably break them . They are kind of fragile . solar lights do not last . on the other hand , i'm not an expert.

I think it primarily depends on your material. So long as it isn't opaque you should be good. I experimented with a few translucent materials such as plastic sheeting, a backyard awning and a bedsheet and it looked great from the other side. You are always going to lose some brightness but thankfully this projector has a higher lumen count. You might have to customize your settings and bump up the values of brightness and tweak some colors, but you should be good for rear projection.

Yes you can but it may take you some time to adjust. Depth perception up close is a little off. You can see things close in a wooden area with no moonlight. You are limited to about 100 yards. I would give yourself to time to practice before completely relying on these for a night hiking experience. Personally, I would not hike at night unless I absolutely had to.

Excellent questions. It will illuminate reflective street signs to a point, but I found I really needed two lights, one aimed ahead, for signs, pedestrians, etc. and one aimed down, for potholes and debris. In fact, I did buy two of these lights. I mounted the straight-ahead one on my handlebars and got a handy device to be able mount the downward one on my front fork, at wheel-level.As for illuminating an unlit path, this light is good if you ride at a slow, leisurely pace. You will "outrun" the light if riding im dark conditions at 10-15 MPH, though.In thd end, I settled on a 600-lumen NiteRider (lots of other, similar choices are commonly available now) to provide a single light for signs and surfaces.
