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.

Sorry but I did not install mine yet. the winter set in & i only got the led light holder tracks installed. I do remember you can cut every 3 feet of led's & there were markings on the vinyl, so you may have to cut it at 39 feet.

No these will not fit on PVC/vinyl posts only 4x4 wood posts. I had to return them because of this.

That's exactly why I purchased them. But after removing my grill and the right headlight I realized the shape of the lights were totally different. I called Ano and asked if I could get them modified to fit and the answer was no. I even thought about hollowing out my old set and retro fitting the new light set but they said they highly recommended I did not do that.

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

No, way! Perhaps the package is six inches but not the units. the ones I installed were approx 2" square (no more). I resealed the bottoms or I'd check the exact size for you. These were the same size as the originals. My lamps have a partitioned area for the controller & these fitted into it perfectly.

The LED version as far as I know do not come with them and even if you did find some laying around or scavenge the rubber off the non lighted ones, the plastic housing is slightly different around the holes. They wouldnt fit. best bet would be to pick up a set of O-rings and use them as a makeshift anti-vibration mount as the rubber on these isn't much to write home about anyways. They kinda distort when torquing them down so it ends up looking weird and broken-ish.

Look at the guide I posted in my previous comment, and cross reference "Type" numbers:17 18 27 37 58 70 73 74 79 85 86 2721It will fit for only the Ash Tray light bulb according to this guide. The only thing to take note of is the clearance of the bulb. These stand pretty tall, and depending on the stock Type NO. the bulb may hit something. But, for the price I'd say it's worth to buy and see. I promise you they look great once they're installed :)

they mount on a flat surface - not on a post - most lights go over the top of the post - these mount flat. they are 4x4 I believe. we took them off our railing for the winter as a couple had already broken and I was sure they would not withstand the winter - still need to get them out and screw them back on the flat rail.

This lights and the way they are design will not meet NEC. Article 300.15, 'a box should be install at any junction or connection point'.If you just cut a hole and make connections(wire nuts or push in connectors) you even risk the chances to set your house in fire if anything goes bad with this units.PVC and/or metal boxes should be used. I'm just making a suggestion. I ordered one just to look at the design and I would rather buy a different fixture.

They have a lip that screws it in place, only thing is that they don't fit snug on 4x4 post. You need to place shims on three sides for firm fit. Also I wouldn't recommend this set of lights as only one of the 4 worked for a short time. Replaced batteries and still didn't work. They look nice but that's all.

Sorry I just tried them on the post so I don't know about the light. I was working with the fit. Copper is a better choice for me and have not found that kind either. The case of this was too white for me.

I hear you on that. The dimensions are: 14W X 7.5H X 4DEEP. They do have the ability to be mounted with the 14 sideways or up and down. Which is a plus. I have had no problems with these lights at all. I read that someone didn't have screws. I received everything in tact. Love that I can turn rows of lights on or off.

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 believe my posts are 3" as well. I used a rim of duct tape (torn to 1/2 the width) to widen the top of the post so these would fit tight. I did not drill holes in the posts , knowing I will replace these in 5 to 10 yrs. Hope that helps.
