I was thinking of buying two of these to illuminate a flag. Could this be used as a spotlight for a 20 foot tall flag?

I had two of these running 410 Lumen 7Watt MR16 LED bulbs and they were more than adequate for my 18-20ft flag. One would have been enough but I wanted even lighting as I have a corner lot.

This isn't a spot light, but my large palm tree is well lit by the light. But the trunk gets a lot of light.It may end up lighting up your pole and not so much the flag.Hmmm..........With Amazons good return policy, it may be worth a try.

If you're looking for a subtle light for the flag, this could work. If you are looking to actually light up the flag, I would not advise a low voltage lamp.

I believe that the range is approx. 12-15 feet. After that the light starts to dim. But for the price of the 2 units, I don't see where you have much to lose.

I have done exactly that with mine. It lights the flag extremely well, but my light fixture is mounted on the roof trim not at ground level.

i had most of my flag lit up with the Triangle Bulbs (6-PACK) LED MR16, GU5.3, 8-Watt, 12V, Non-Dimmable, 550 Lumens, 50W Equivalent, 60° Wide Flood, 5000K Natural Daylight Light Bulbs - UL Listed

face the pickup towards the south, you have to mount it higher, we have a 20 foot. don't know if this helps...my husband told me what to say. but I will say this ...it may not be much light at 45 foot as there is just enough light to see "most" of the flag

Perhaps you could get an LED bulb. A 20 Watt LED bulb can give you the brightness of a 100 watt incandescent.

It could be used that way. Just be forewarned that it is a large bulb at 5" in length, not including the screw in base. It's about 2 1/2 in diameter and a bit heavy. It's also very very bright. I have it in an upright lamp with a shade. It's great for reading, sewing and close up work. Keep in mind that is a quite bright white light.

The smaller spotlight is not very bright, about the same as a small flashlight. I only use it with the red lense cap for finding filters, etc in the dark. The main spotlight is very powerful and is comprised of many leds. It projects several hundred feet.

Doubtful. Too big for that purpose. There are better lights available for guns.

No, I don't think so. It's more of a feature light, where the distance between the feature and the light is like 5 feet. Think "small piece of statuary" or "small pond feature". Anything bigger/farther away from that will need a genuine spotlight, and probably one fed with 110VAC at that.

I would say that the area of illumination is only 2-3'. You would need several of these. I use them to light a peculiar step on my deck and secured them right next to the step riser. Hope this helps you. I would suggest you try a couple of them to determine how they would work for you.

It probably could be done, but this light isn't intended to reflect up. It works beautifully reflecting down but it won't light a room 10 x 18 ft. It is more of a task light meant to give you a great light on a reading or work area. And it does that amazingly well.

Maybe?! The cool thing about this light is the casing is aluminium. So if you have the tools and skills you could tap it and built a seriously strong mount for it. Out of the box? I'd say the mount it comes with would not stand up to that kind of use.

This is more of a work light. It is very bright and aims the light in one direction, but I would not use as spot light for say more than 10-20 ft. I bought to add to the lighting in the rear of my Jeep Wrangler because the stock dome light is not bright enough or in right place. This light is very rugged and worth the money IMHO.

Yes it could if you don't prefer a longer, rectangular style... It is moderately bright.

Greetings Rocky: We use these to light our flag at night. Thay are usually still bright enought to do the job at 2 am about 5 to 7 hours, after that I'm not sure. Our bigest issue with these lights is there is no built in means of attaching them to a surface.

I don't think so. THis is a very small spotlight. Although I purchased it to showcase art, I ended up attaching it to my lamp for bedside reading and on a thermostat to check temperatures in dimly lit spaces.

If it is bigger than one inch I would not think so. IF WE ARE TALKING ONLY THOUSANDS OF AN INCH BIGGER I WOULD CHANCE IT . YOU COULD ALWAYS USE IT ON A SCOPE MOUNTED LIGHT LIKE I DID.

No this light will not be right for that if the goal is only to light the book as this will easily light a cone that extends 10-15 feet in front of you while running/walking/working at night. It's very bright and works to light the area not spot in front of you.

I would use it for drawing and it will illuminate whatever is right under it quite well but I don't think it would be optimal for working on a surface that is larger than say 2 ft wide. As for color accuracy, the light is pretty close to natural sunlight.
