Are the side clips strong enough to hold both the housing and a spotlight in place?

The clips hold only the trim. The bulb is supported separately via the light socket

Not really, If your lamp holder lets you you can aim the light a little, but remember you can attach this to either side or front/back so, you are able to put the light where you want it.

Don't think so. The clip is attached by a couple of tiny screws but I don't see any holes to accept them on the other end.

I bought this clamp light (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000KKNGEM/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&ps;c=1) that works well for me, we've been able to clip it onto several things around the apartment.

The lights come with clips on the side that hold the light in place so you do not need a casing to put them in. I just put up two of these lights with just the sheet rock and the clips are holding the lights in place very well.

If you had some MOLLE straps or something that'd probably work fine, but the clip isn't bulletproof if it doesn't have much to grip on. I'd probably use a zip tie to make sure it was really secure. I've never had a better light though, and the clips aren't much different on anything else I've had. It comes with a smaller ring for mounting, you might be able to adapt that for your backpack.

I don't have the light so I don't know. The top bar does have 2 holes on each side to mount lights.

Yes it does clip to the bulb is very small , and it will work the cover project that you have

It fastens with the little nut in the middle. Might fit recessed lighting but not designed for it.

Yes, the clips are very strong all the way down to 0, if that makes sense. It will hold.

We tried to mount them on a patio cover and the lights were too heavy for the clips. We ended up draping the lights over the patio cover. I would suggest getting stronger hooks for the lights if you mount them.

Yes it clips to the bulbs. They are small so please measure before you purchase

Yes but over time the case loosens and your light may fall out. I keep mine upright and my light almost falls out of the bottom if i run.

Yes a fairly strong one on the base end, at least a couple of pounds, though I have not actually made a measurement. It will indeed hold the light itself firmly to a ferrous surface.

Yes. It is the press on kind and was very tough to secure. I ended up buying a clip-on for $3 and a lot less hassle.

I suppose you could use the bracket mount to affix it to something. The brackets are slotted which is what keeps light from rotating so I don't know if it would be efficient to use side bolts. Hope that helps

You are correct. You will need either hide a set screw somewhere or find some other fashion of lateral support given it being possible to slide the two clips apart.
