It depends on how much light you require. It doesn't cast any light below itself. or a minimal amount. If the umbrella covers a table, the best result would be to place it on the table top

It depends on what you want to use it for. it's a small lantern and puts out about as much light as a fairly decent flashlight. I use it during electrical outages, and it works just fine for finding my way around the house.

Yes. Definitely. Depending on how large your umbrella is you might want two or three. That would look really nice too.

Yes, should work. Maximum spread is about 2 1/4 STRONG. Tips of clip are rubber coated for a good grip. Can accommodate a depth of about 2 1/2 inches. About 2'' wide clip.

It should. Especially if the head has an umbrella slot like you would use for any other umbrella.

the pole is smaller than the average outdoor umbrella. i would suggest if you do use a regular umbrella weight that you add something (i.e. foam, crumpled up plastic bags, etc) to keep it in place.

I would say no. One and a half inches would be a bit too much of a stretch for this clip. Too bad, great light otherwise.

It should, I use it with a similar golf umbrella. The holding tube is very accommodating.

It absolutely is possible. If you have a drill and round saw bits. You can cut a hole in the center of the table, making certain you're cutting through the middle of the support beam underneath as well. To offset the cut would weaken the support beam. Of course your umbrella would need to be weighted under the table so it doesn't catch a wind and fly off. :). Also, the 2x10 option would be the best bet when adding the umbrella. The larger wood offers more support when your cutting a hole in the center.

Yes, it should. We have a larger umbrella and it works great. Adjustable to smaller umbrellas too.

It should Krysta. As long as there is something for the clamp to hold on to. It's a very versatile umbrella.

My umbrella also has an attached pole, but that pole slips into a slightly wider but shorter pole that is attached to a cross bar base. I slipped the water weight base over the cross bar base section and then lifted the umbrella & poke into position. If your umbrella has a similar construction, it should be fine.

Sure you could. Just use a hole saw to make the hole whatever diameter you need for the umbrella. (Drill bits would work too but not as clean)

This base would only be suitable for a small (< 9 foot) umbrella going through the patio table first. http://www.hayneedle.com/patio-umbrella-buying-guide.cfm

Yes....but just make sure the drawstring on the top is "tight enough" -- so that it doesn't slide down the umbrella and come off. It might be a little "cumbersome" to continue to open and close the umbrella, though.

It will fit a rectangular umbrella. I'm not sure about the size but the one for the 9 ft. umbrella might work.

I imagine it would work. It would clip in fine and I don't see it sliding or anything so I would recommend it.

I used it on a stand for an umbrella. It slid right onto and clamped on the metal rod the the umbrella would attach to.

This is cut for a round shape, but it will still fit over a square umbrella shape. Might fit against the ground oddly but should still work.
