My headboard has a pretty good arc to it. Are the hangers rubberized or something so the light doesn't slide around when you don't want it to?

The hangers have soft plastic tube sleeves and my headboard is a pretty steep arch Federalist style and it fits perfectly. I use it rather than the bedside table lamps nearly all the time.

Yes - the over-the-headboard support is rubberized; no movement occurs once put into place.

Yes they are. The only problem I have is that my headboard is like the one in the photo. I need to widen the wires to enable the light to fit over the thickness of the headboard. I really like it even with that problem.

My light does slide around. My headboard is very large and sometimes it falls off

Not true in my case. The depth of the lights coincides with the diameter of the frame bars, so there is no intrusion into the carrier itself. The power cords come out the sides of the lamp units, so they don't cause a problem either.

We hung them from lights on a ceiling fan and just didn't use the fan. We tied them with slip knots. Hope this helps.

No. they are attached to the light fixture when its delivered.and if you tried rigging it, it would probably look a little ghetto. but its a beautiful light if you found one with shorter strings!

We have a textured ceiling too in our home and the rubber lining does a good job at protecting it I have not had any problems so far and I don't keep my pole up I automatically take it down when I'm done and so far no damage and I also tighten as much as possible, but some people do put something in between the pole and ceiling just in case.

Hi Rob, I attached these lights directly to the bottom of some Kraftmaid cabinets. The cabinets have a very smooth polyurethane finish. The tape is separating in a few spots. They haven't fallen off, but I question it for the long-term. Another method would be to router a grove in the bottom of your railing and insert a mounting channel (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0080IB4E0/ref=s9_simh_gw_p60_d2_i3?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=desktop-4&pf_rd_r=1H5XQQDR5387MRXBZRFV&pf_rd_t=36701&pf_rd_p=1970566842&pf_rd_i=desktop), and put the lights in there. Search for 'mounting channel' on Amazon and you will find some options. Good luck!

Okay J - Thank you so much! I am a visual learner and I had no idea how those metal things attach/clip, whatever and if it is hanging from the ceiling already, I guess it's not for support, but just to: Raise The Curtain if you will. Got it. Thanks

The light part has groves that you push the guard into. Then turn to stay in place. Can't have the bare light without the guard because that's what holds the glass in place. Not cheaply made, I had the same concern, but I like it and haven't had a problem with it.

I use Velcro strips on the back of mine. This enables me to move the light when I need to. I use them on my boat and they stay in tack without any problems.

I can't say what is best I. Your circumstance. The lights are a half circle with adhesive on the flat side. The adhesive isn't the best to use around water or anything in motion as the lights can separate from the surface they are adhered to.I did mount the lights in my live well; I mounted them to the horizontal side and went over he top with clear Duct Tape. They have done quite well. I left the tape about 3/4 to 1 inch beyond the lights themselves.

I just put them over the light. I had to cut slots for the wiring. They are heavy enough to stay in place.

Even though the shelves are metal grids, if you hang the lights from the top, your two bottom shelves won't get it, only the top. You could hang a grow light from each shelf all the way down if they are not too bulky or thick. If you position a light from the OUTSIDE of the shelves, you could angle one light to hit all 3 shelves. The problem is that the plastic cover will probably melt from the intensity of the lamp. I use these outside in the full sun and have no issues. Do they make small clip-on lights that you could clip to each shelf and then angle?

I hung them from bicycle hanging hooks! They have the rounded front to loop forward and upward! I also have stored them upside down in the closet or,,,behind a chair in the bedroom,Bungy cords can secure them as well! They are tough to store, but I love them!

They're made out of the same plastic as regular plastic hangers. I haven't had any issues with them.

There are legs and they are also covered with the material. You don't have to attach them but it would add more stability to the headboard.

I find the one light it has very distracting, so just put a small piece of dark tape (I used electrical tape) over it, and no more problem for me!

I have my light hanging from the internal metal frame. Have the adjustable hanging straps. Works good.
