Would the shape and placement of the bulb on the string allow you to cover the bulb with a Ping pong ball? What's the spacing between the bulbs?

Bulbs are 4 inches apart. The bulb length is 1 inch from its attachment to the strand. The bulb is maybe a 1/4 inch wide. I don't know the dimensions of a ping pong ball, so I cannot help you there.

They are spaced approximately 3 inches apart. I'm sure you could cover them with ping pong balls, although I have not tried it myself.

yes. you can place a ping pong ball over the individual light. mine are bunched up in two wads in the basket of my small four wheeler. I think the spacing are about two to three inches apart. but just don't put them outside. the case is not water proof.

Michael, I'll just add that the design of the bulb will affect the distribution of light as well. I use a halogen mini-spot in mine that focuses the light into a relatively tight beam. Are you limited to using just one fixture? Perhaps two (or more) would solve your problem. Good luck.

Seems like they will fit. Looks to be just under 2 1/2" by eyeballing it with a measuring tape. It might be difficult to screw in though depending on how deep the bulb will sit in the globe. They are nice looking bulbs though. Will look best on a dimmer but you still get the 'Edison' effect without. Hope that helps!

Hi, I actually replaced existing bulbs with one size smaller, so that the lights don't protrude and shine in your eyes, rather than down light on the "globe" . A bit fiddly, but doable. It took 2-3 of us a couple of hours to assemble, including the electrician - but well worth the effort. It's a magical lamp, we love it.

It takes a small bulb to fit, so would check and see if there are any such bulbs made bright enough.

Use plier, you will need strong hands. To connect the balls, use the triangle wires, use plier open it widen the ends so they each hook on to each opening of the crystal ball. To hand string with ball to light fixture, use plier to hook the end of the string to the smaller wire and then hook it to the light fixture. Before doing anything else, double check that the light fixture has the same number of hooks in each row and are evenly spaced out. Ous was not, and we had already finished everything, thrown away box, so we could not return it. Now every time I look at it I get annoyed because one if the rows is not evenly spaced out and it is noticeable when you are directly below it looking up. Too late for us, so check yours.

It is little larger than a standard bulb, but it fits in a regular socket. If there is no cover for the light, it should fit nicely! It really is a great light!

Yes. The wires need to be bent back against the sides of the bulb so they make contact with the bulb holder pieces.

I am using it in a dinning room fixture, in which it is in a can that covers it on all sides, except the bottom. The lamp is flush with the opening and there is about 1/2" of space around the edges of the bulb face. I have two in the fixture and both are fine, after 3 months. I think it should work the same in a ceiling fixture.

It really varies based on the bulb you use and how far from the ground you mount them. The halogens were a tad larger circle than the LEDs bulbs. But I'm happy with the led bulbs! It's about 4' in diameter for me maybe a tad more. I have my lights spaced every 10'. If you want the light cast to touch the next I'd suggest no more than 6' spacing.

As long as it has a standard screw in bulb size like a regular light bulb. I did install the shorter mini bulbs so they would not stick as far out. I would say maybe it sticks out about 1 1/2 inches compared to the normal bulbs that I used to use. It still is under the fixture. These work great and are well made of ceramic. Glad I got them. Saving me money on bulbs.

I would say yes if you can keep the profile similar. There's not a ton of extra space between the glass and bulb possibly enough.

I want to use this in a tiffany style light that has a tight area for the candelabra bulb. Do you think this bulb will fit as it seems fat and it also seems like the base not have enough room to screw in to the light socket. What do you think?

The dimension of the bulb is 4.875" from the base to the top, and 2.375" in diameter. Those other dimensions must be the box dimensions.

I think you could bend it to fit but I'm not sure! I am using it on a smaller bulb.

Ithe bulb is about an 1.25 inch n length I don't think it would fit properly

Sure. As long as a normal recessed light bulb will fit the track, this should fit also.
