The light stands are supposed to be 84" tall. Is there a trick to extending them? Only one part will telescope upward. (Same on both stands.)

For each stand, two parts telescopes upward, not only one. There are two clips on each stand. Try at those two points. It should work.

Mine both telescope properly - they go up so high they touch the ceiling...you may need to unscrew the dohicky to get it to extend???? Hope this helps-I'm a complete amateur :)

I am having the same problem, did you find an answer to this??? Oh wait.... got pliers an pulled on it..... now it is working. I thought I was going to break it.

Hello, the light fixture has a variable height adjustment at several points. The way I have mine adjusted- the whole thing from the base to the top is approx. 14 inches. It can go all the way to 17 inches IF you straighten the middle part and just have the LIGHT part hanging over. Actually, you can have the entire light in a straight line which would make it ~24 inches (~2 feet). Hope that answers your question.

It was a long time ago that I bought that thing and then returned it. I don't know what to tell you. They probably forgot to include velcro or holes. You're much better off just buying tripods and using lights from the hardware store. See youtube for DIY instructions. That's what I did and it works fine. Good luck.

it depends on how you arrange all the snake-like extensions on top - if you straighten them straight up or if you angle them down. my daughter has them arranged similarly to the picture and it makes the lamp about 5 feet tall.

I haven't installed my lights yet, but based on the size of the light bundle, it looks like it could be too much. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I hope this helps, I first leaned it on a wall, and then started using a couple of light stands, works great! Good Luck

I had them installed for me. And your right they did have some trouble also. They are up and I do like the lamps I have used them in two rooms andthey work well. I believe it was the wall bracket bar that the lamps screw into that he had to adjust. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I've got mine mounted 8' off the ground. That gives me about a 10' beam of bright light and 20' of useable light. Hope this helps.

I think there is the possibility to make it shorter (pull up the cords inside the housing that attaches to the ceiling), however, you cannot make it longer. We have 12 foot ceiling and needed to extend conduit down about 2 feet to attach the light to in order to put it at a height that made sense.

The 3 actual lamps are movable, but the height of the whole fixture is not adjustable.

The lamp doesn't allow adjustments neither in the level of light nor in height. Does this answer your question?

I didn't have any problems with them...perhaps you can call the company....did you set them to your height? Perhaps you just set one leg higher than the other one?

From the position of mine,which is four inches above,it lights mine just fine. I believe if you position you're light twelve inches above,it will help a lot because of the cone shaped beam of light. Please respond to Stevenmathers32@gmail.com if it works for you! If you would like,I can tell you how I constructed mine with minimal cost and size of pole I think you would need for two flags.

No. Mine are mounted on the ground and light up a nice area of maybe 4 to 5 feet in diameter. As they point up higher, the beam becomes less. You could always purchase 2 of these lights and put them about 3 feet apart and that would probably give you the light you are looking for.

Well, because you can tilt the top piece towards the ground (like a camera tripod) the height of the tripod stand that comes with matters not. Hope this helps.

The height is adjusted with a telescoping pole and a pin. There is also a threaded knob that secures the pole. This is not the area that failed on my stands.

I have an 8 foot ceiling and the lights come over about 3 feet. I didn't measure I'm just guessing.
