Does anyone know the "openness" of this product? How much light actually gets through? Cheers!

It has tiny pin holes. If you are in the care you can see through it quite reasonably . It shades effectively from the sun but is not opaque. It's the most effective sun shade I have found for my daughter. And it allows you to Open and close the window at least haft way without any problem.

Actually it's clear. The film is opaque and the leaf pattern is much less so. I can't tell you how many compliments I've had on this wonderful alternative to curtains. It lets light through while you have complete privacy!

It is translucent...you can see right through it, but you know it's there. There are shadows and glare from lights

My two cents--I don't think it is like a spot beam. It seems to have a pretty good spread. Brightness is going to have a lot to do with the room, color of the walls, size. The light is pretty much the same as coming through a frosted glass. We got it for the fan and have additional lighting in the room.

Hi MaryKate: I don't recommend this product. It gives off very little light. I regret having bought it. It is purely decorative. Certainly not functional. I have it placed on the wall in lieu of a picture. Appx 9" across the top and 8" high.

The LED in the front is pretty damn bright by itself as you can see in the pic taken at broad daylight (ignore my horrible cable management).https://fbcdn-sphotos-h-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/t1.0-9/1538672_10153763557600501_1188223533_n.jpgHOWEVER, once the case is closed, because of the double layer black meshing in the front, the brightness is reduced to a soothing blue. Even at night you can't see it with your eyes closed pressed against the case. lol

It lets plenty of light in but you can not see inside or see outside. Has a pattern on it which makes it a milky color.

very very clear. I am very satifiy with this lamp. I liked the other one as well had no clue that this one was even better. its almost like you can reach out and touch. Hope that I have answered your question. if you are on the fence about buying this lamp don't be. buy it you won't be sorry.

Light will come through somewhat, but it is diffuse. This is more of a privacy screen, and light will also show over the top, especially if you have an overhead light.

My problem with this light fixture is that the bottom is completely open, meaning you can see right up inside. I think this light is better in hallways, stairwells, entryways...I think there are much better options for a bedroom.

This listing says "clear" is it actually clear or is it frosted clear (white) like the original one? i'm looking for more light in my laundry room, the stock one doesn't let a lot of light through. Thank you

The opening for the light to glow through is only 2 inches. As the radius of light gets bigger the light gets dimmer. It is a 5 watt LED bulb. Targets (in my town) sells an adjustable light similar to this in the store. I compared it to a ceiling light with a 100 watt incandescent bulb and the desk lamp was much dimmer than the ceiling light.

I've had mine up for a couple of weeks now and no problem, No light is completely moisture proof, unless it is in a air proof container. I hope this helps you.

It is going to show light through it but it is heavily diffused. I put this up to block sunrays that come in at an odd angle blinding us. Now my hall window still provides nice soft light but is a fraction of the brightness and keeps temps down.

I would say some light is able to pass through the walls. They are an oxford material similar to a wind breaker. The top cover is heavier and coated with PVC so the top cover will probably keep most light out.

It is an opaque plastic so it let's light through but you can't see through it.

It let's some light through, but it is not see through. If you look at the pictures I posted of this in my living room you'll see that I have it blocking the large sliding glass doors in my living room. My apartment is right next to the street so if that window is open everyone can see me. The panels also block out the ability to see behind them .. you'd only see figures in silhouette.
