Will this tent allow light to pass through: like parachute materal ?

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 should work fine. There are downward facing slots at the top not much light should get through. It looks much more expensive than the actual cost; great value for the money.

It is translucent and would let light come through. It is tough though. And very lightweight.

The cloth is very light, and does let light through, although I'm not sure of the exact percentage. I used it in the beginning of the summer to protect my saplings and it worked great! Kept the bugs off and gave everyone the light they needed to grow.

I think it can be made to work with about any straight leg tent. it is one solid piece including to roof so it will block the built in lights.

This tent does lack a nice tie for hanging things. For a light, I use a Coleman magnetic light. The light goes inside the tent and a metal piece is on the outside. When they are close, the magnet in the light base attracts the metal piece and holds the light up. I believe mine is also remote controlled. Cost like $12-15 bucks.

Not very unless you're looking between each panel on the side. Some light will get through but that is about it.

This will "light up" from inside like most all tents. It does cast shadows on the walls with a light on so if you have a privacy concern you will have to keep that in mind.

It's really just like a thick wax paper backing. Yes light can penetrate but if your looking for something to impress this isn't your partition. I like it because the construction is good for the price paid even with the wax paper backing. We hardly notice it.

It's about 99% light proof. There are a few parts along the zipper where light can leak/escape from. But the holes are so small you can only see it with the lights on and even then it looks smaller than a pin prick.

You can use the light inside but it will shine right through the clear plastic. This is a greenhouse you need a grow tent

No, there thin and almost see threw with light. I consider this a starter kit, so have fun with it now but I would recommend you upgrade in the future. Especially if your plan on doing something professional.

Yes. Light is able to pass through the film so it isn't really necessary that one be close to see through the window.

You could not see through though note-our tent was in the shade. We used as changing room for bride. Yes on the zipper!

No. It filters the light but is heavy enough material that you can't see through it.

I don't think so, the material has a pretty tight weave and I don't think much light would get through. Having to uncover during the day is the main down-side of these types of bags, but better than having everything freeze.

No but it's good "canvas" material to do that... we have yet to decorate it but plan to. It's a pretty cool tent!
