Amazons details contradict themselves, states 1AA but description states 2AAs. That being said, has anyone installed these on 5 x 5 vinyl post with no modifications to the light or post?

I installed on 4" vinyl posts. The lights come with an interchangeable base to fit different sizes of posts.

The way I mounted the lights, I can not check the length of the links. If I recall, the links were around two and half inches between the mounts. I'm pretty sure they were not 5 or 3 inches long.

They are 2 inch diameter verticle posts. I should also mentoin, you should keep the botton of the rail high enough off the pool surface water to avoid corrosion from pool chemicals.

I searched and searched trying to find"the perfect lamps to accommodate the posts. I finally found the Nuevo 60/546 which are listed on the same page as the posts (at the bottom of the page). They are beautiful! !!!! They are glass and not plastic and they compliment the posts perfectly! I have people inquiring about them often! I LOVE THEM! !!!!Good luck with your search!

These are 5 1/2" long and the V is 2" and 2". These would be a little too long for a 4X4 post, I believe.

Dennis, i don't have measurements handy because their at my office, HOWEVER, if you can afford better lights, i highly recommend it. In terms of light, they're fine. Mine arrived without screws to hold the plastic on the back of the lights. of course there are no matches at Home Depot, ACE or any other hardware store i shop. i regret buying these.

Yes, they fit my 5x5 vinyl posts. I caution you that they yellow rapidly. I've had them about a year now and only about half of them are still working.

The posts need to have something pretty stable to attach to. If you can do that then you might be OK. The flex track isn't that flexible so the posts need to be able to withstand some stress to keep the shape of your bends. Hope that helps! It's a great light fixture!

I just measured the 2 adapters that come with the light. One measures 3 5/8" x 3 5/8" and the other one measures 4 1/8" x 4 1/8". The light itself measures 5 1/8" x 5 1/8". I use them on my vinyl fence posts without adapters and they are a perfect fit for the so called 5 x 5 vinyl posts. If the actual measurement of your posts is 4 1/4", the light, as supplied, won't fit. You could think about sanding a little off the tops of the posts, the depth of the adapter is only 1 3/8", so you would only need to take off 1/16" from each face on the top 1 3/8" of the post.

Not sure why yours is any different than mine. Mine are just fine. Unless you got shipped the wrong light. The only part that will show is the light itself with the lip on the outside. The rest is irrelevent. If it's not what you want or dont like the look, send them back!

I have one mounted on an alcove wall that is 23" wide. You can extend the light full length or adjust it to bend at the center of the long pole (as shown in the photo). I have mine bent slightly and it works well. The other light I have is fixed to a wall over a desk and works great for adding light when you want to work at the desk. The dimmer works well for this reason. I am happy with my purchase of these lamps. Hope this helps.

Thanks all for your input. I ended up going to OSH, matching the thread, then purchasing 1" bolts instead of 1.5" bolts that was supplied in the packaging. So new purchasers, save yourself a bunch of anxiety and buy yourself 1" #8 32 standard thread. I e-talked with the manufacturer, Progress Lighting. That was pretty useless...community, you were much more help! Thanks...

I measured the inside diameter of the light and it measures 5 in. x 5 in.. You may want to measure your vinyl post to make sure their measure is 5 x 5. Hope this helps. DW

I ordered more extensions pkgs. from a lighting company that carried the light fixtures. It was no problem at all.

Thank you for the information, I always go by "if it doesn't say that it is, then it's not". How much height do they add to the bulb? Are you happy with the adaption?
