It says the lamp rotates 270 degrees, but all of the pics show it at a <180 degree angle. Would this would work to illuminate something up on a wall?

Yeah. It's as flexible as a folding yardstick. I aim mine at the computer screen: base on desk; lamp pointed straight ahead. Can even be aimed at the ceiling. So definitely flexible enough. The light arc is pretty wide, but not extremely so. Maybe about a foot or more from a foot away. So if you're illuminating something wide this may not be okay. Otherwise, good lamp. Been using mine steadily for 5 months or so.

It's pretty similar to a regular old light bulb, probably covers about 270 degree arc, with some fall-off outside of that range. I would think it would work fine for your use, although don't know how your lampost looks.

Well David, that is a good question. I have a light meter, but not where I have this equipment. What would you like to use this to illuminate? I may be able to answer based on your application. The range of color is amazing and it has worked perfect for anything where I have used this item. I have been quite pleased and I was trying to imagine the brightest setting and I can say that the light this strip throws is quite impressive. Sorry I cannot be exact with the lumens but If I knew what you would be using this for I could tell you if it would work, possibly.

Yes. You can rotate the light up and down- so it points farther in the distance or closer to your feet. It stays where you point it very wellReese is incorrect.

It rotates, this thing is sick. I hung it sideways on the wall, got a wireless remote outlet for 20 bucks, just click it on and blamo cool light show. Lots of colors, very powerful for the price. And a hundred thousand hour bulb means you can leave it on forever. I love this thing, get it.

I don't think this lamp will provide that kind of light. The bulb sockets say '60 w limit', that would be 180 incandescent. My lamp had difficulty accepting LED or CFL bulbs (in fact it wouldn't). You might call the manufacturer or search for a lamp that says it provides daylight.

Yes each bulb assembly has two adjustable angles. First the assembly rotates about 360 degrees where it attaches to the tubing. Second, the bulb rocks a little more than 90 degrees in the two fingers that holds the lamp.

Yes: You can flip it over. It moves on a 180 degree axis, but you can't angle it side to side. It's sort of like a knee joint. It looks like a big salad bowl angled at the ceiling. It's a pretty good lamp. It's a bit hulking, but it has some style. The only flaws are:- no side to side angling- the only on/off switch is a floor a button.

I agree with Mr. Richards answer but you might be able to turn the light upside down and "up light" a figure effectively.

Not really, If your lamp holder lets you you can aim the light a little, but remember you can attach this to either side or front/back so, you are able to put the light where you want it.

Yes. The only thing you cant really adjust is how the light is affixed to the wall. The picture is a bit misleading in that regard. With the alignment of the screws (how it attaches to the box in the wall/ceiling), the bar is more level in the middle, with the left side pointing upward and the right side pointing downward, like this sort of: `---\. If that makes any sense at all. But yes, the lights themselves are adjustable and rotate within their sockets. Hope this helps.

Yes, the bulb is supposed to rotate. When we first installed it for our son's birthday party, it didn't immediately work. My husband unscrewed it and screwed it back again several times and then it worked. Continued to work great, after the initial fear that it didn't! It was really cool :) Hope you get yours working :)

Would work, depending on size of wall (small) and general level of other lighting (low). For a bigger wall, I would suggest one of the larger Phillips models. Nice lamp, small footprint, great value, but not super-bright.

I would say no, but I mounted it on the top of the frame, with 2 little pieces of wood mounted on the frame itself. The reason is that the U neck of the light cannot rotate more than a quarter turn on both sides. I didn't forced it further, it would have broke. I also add that the light is very cold white, and I would have loved warmer white...

Question: "I would like to use this with a wall mount. Will this lamp work?" Answer: Unless you have a ledge or some sturdy protrusion that projects out 2 inches that you can clamp the mount to, I would say no.

I think it would make a pretty good light, bu you might need to prop it up on something to get the right angle. I have tried it and found that it is a really good light and I will be buying another!

The angle reflected from these bulbs are straight on, guess that's may reflect in a 4-45 degree angle....They are very bright...IMO! Hope this helps.
