How many square inches will the 5 grams cover? Will this mount 3 or 5 watt 20 mm star mount leds to a sheet heat sink? If so how many?

Since the adhesive is applied in as thin a coat as possible, 5 gm (2.5 each component) should last you a long time. I have used this product to mount star LEDs on a heat sink. Unless you have a huge number to do, 5 gm will probably expire before you use it all. I apply very sparingly with a spatula, use pressure to squeeze out any excess, and let cure for a day or so.

The LED bulb is 3 inches wide by 4.5 inches tall. They have excellent illumination for 500 lumen bulbs (use only 8 watts for 60 watt equivalent). The only issue I have encountered is the lower half of the bulb is shielded (as most LEDs are) and results in a dark area around the base of the glass inclosure surrounding the bulb.

Looks like it's around 5 inches deep. Easily covers a standard 60 watt lightbulb.

lots of pre drilled and coated holes for mounting, minimal heat...it's a skinny little fluorescent tube ...it's an electronic appliance anything with electricity can cause a fire under less than optimal conditions... if worried about it maybe build a mount with metal and provide an airspace behind it... and mount to fire resistant material...but I personally believe neither to be necessary with this item... or the smaller hydrofarm 2 bulb fixture...

Sorry ...... I am on vacation and cannot measure the socket adapter. I use it with 4 Phillips 60W LED Bulbs. The bulbs do not come close to touching each other. The only problem I had was with clearing the "harp". I used a screw-in adapter to lengthen the lamp socket so that the 4-socket adapter would clear the "harp".

I have this light for my indoor aquaponics system. You can see some pics of my system on my blog at www.whatisaquaponics.co but I have it close to my plants so it covers less than 2sq ft. Great light though.

I use an LED globe bulb for this fixture with 350 lumens and the light is just outstanding and bright, but only consumes 5W. It doesn't heat up and it perfectly fits. This bulb is really a good find for this lamp, I highly recommend it Triangle Bulbs T90020 (Pack of 2) G16 Decorative Globe Light Bulbs 300 Lumen 5-watt LED Light Bulb with E26 Base, Color 3000K, Dimmable, UL Listed, Energy star certified,

Hello,we use the Brightest 3528 SMD LEDs for these,Actual working luminous flux about 420~460Lumens,thanks!

it is a standar size, I use it for light bulbs 5 to 60 watts and it works well.

About 4(3/4)" x 6(3/4)"Once you get everything in it will look great. Mine did however condensate enough to ruin my LEDs. I would recommend sealing the plastic around the light with a little caulk before using.

I apologize for the delayed answer. I returned my unit because I didn't think the LEDs were bright enough to light the space I had in mind. I think the unit's LEDs, even if all were lit to yield white, would be washed out by the lights, unless perhaps the 60 watt lamps were quite far from the white wall. If you used only one of R-B-G sections of the Mega Bar, I think the color would show, but the color would be at least somewhat washed out, if not quite pale. Finally, I think the LED technology in this small package needs some growth and improvement, probably with brighter LEDs to begin with.

I don't know details about your application, but I doubt it, and even if it does, you have not solved the issue - heat dissipation. One side of this device gets cold, the other hot. You will still have to dissipate the heat with some heatsink and possibly fan. I would leave out this device and mount the LED to properly sized heatsink.

The 5" can is plenty large...the mistake a lot of folks make is to go too small and the LED's are great except their one issue is heat, and using a new construction or remodeling 5" will be just what you need. If you are wondering about the 'trim' ring only, I would also recommend a 5" again because of air circulation for the electronics of the bulb; inside the shank is a small AC to DC power supply for the DC diodes. I hope this helps.

The answer provided below is incorrect. The LED is rated at 72W for 5 meter strip or 2Amps / Color. For RGB, you are looking at 6Amps at 12v or 72Watts. The included 60W power supply (12V @ 5A) is under powered for 1 strip and in appropriate for 3 strips. If you are using 5m RGB 5050 LEDs with 72W rating as what is described in this product, you would need 72W x 3 = 216W to adequately supply the necessary power to light up 3 strips that are 16' in length.

To my knowledge the length of the T5 pretty much determines the wattage, does it not? A 4' fixture will use a 54w, whereas a 3' fixture will use a 39w.

I do not recommend this light. It only lasted for a week before it quit working. The LED light is only effective for the area right under the light. So a 12" x 12" square is all of the effective coverage you should expect.

I purchased this item a few weeks ago for my desktop lamp. The disk has a small diode that is mounted on top of the circuit board itself which results in a .375 inch / 9.2525 mm / .95cm height of the LEDs, circuit board and diode. The LEDs are very bright produces about a 6000k color spectrum.
