Would this be good for use when the electricity goes off and you need to keep a light on for 8 hours or more.

The Gorillatorch claims up to 80 hours of use. I've never used it for more than a few minutes at a time, so I can't attest to that. But I would say that it's more of a flashlight than a lamp if you're looking for whole room illumination.

Yes, that will not be a problem if you keep a couple of things in mind. First, this is simply a light bulb, so leaving it on all the time is fine, but is does draw quite a bit of juice. Being that it is an IR light it will draw roughly 10 amps of current, so don't run this off of an extension cord. Plug it directly in the wall. Lastly, follow the safety guide lines for clearances and you will be fine.

Yes, very well. I accidentally left my light on for over 8 hours necessitating my first charge. It took less than 4 hours (I was gone for that timeframe) and its back to full charge.

I don't think it would give enough light for your purposes . Think of it as a good closet light or as a work lamp.

I use these inside. They are hard wired in my house and come on when the electricity goes off. Problem is if the elecctric goes off during the day they don't last until it gets dark and there is no way to cut them off and save the battery until night. But if it goes off at night these lights stay on about 4 hours. Alow for getting down stairs etc. They don't look like they are for use outside. They only come on when the electricity goes off.

This should be fine. I leave mine on for eight hours at a time with no overheating problems.

It's a motion detector light, so I don't see why it should stay on for 2 hours. Mine is set for 10 minutes, or so. I've had mine for a year or two, and haven't yet replaced the bulb.

i think that really depends on the quality of the battery you use. i use the amazon brand "AA" batteries and have used the lite with both down and up lights on for about 5 hours consecutive use and they did start to dim slightly. but as i find you don't really need more time than that for an evening on the patio. you need to keep in mind this a temporary lite source for your patio table and is not meant for long burn duration's. with that in mind, it's a good investment for the money. it's also good to have around in case of a power outage!!

No. The light should stay on until you turn it off. Mine has stayed on for hours at a time.

Correct. This is an emergency power failure light. Its main purpose is to provide you some light for a few hours, so that you can get to safety or find some other light sources. It is not powerful enough to light up a room or to last overnight. For that you'll need an LED lantern that runs on D cells.

Probably fine. The lights are nice and bright when you first change the batteries; they do dim over time. If that would be a problem, it might be better to get something that plugs in.

Not well the battery last about 2 hours not good for lit room. But it is a good product.

Ive ran It for about an hour but after that the light does weaken if you bring an extra set of AA batteries and replaced them after an hour it would probably work fine

one night we were doing a bbq outside and it was giving at least an hour of light: the light did not have full charge. the light is pretty bright.with full light it can give you a more than 1 hour i believe. but I don't know about 4 to 6. I don't think it is designed for this long or for constant light, This light turns off automatically if no movement.

Dont really think it would hold up for nightly use. Very bright light makes me think the bulb wouldn't last. Also uses a lot of power, will pull a fully charged battery down to about 50% in about 4-5 hours use. Good luck

The light power is adjustable. I don't know the technicality of it, but you should be at a distance where your eyes can look at it occasionally. You need to use it for approximately 30 minutes in the morning or afternoon.

I imagine that would depend on the quality of the replaceable batteries that you select to install and how often your light comes on when an object sets it off. The light only stays on for a very short space of time when the person or animal moves out of range. I consider it one of my better buys.
