Hi - Could I attach this light to a round 4" electrical box in the wall in a new constuction application? Thanks ;)

hi Eric, our fairly handy son in law said yes, but local codes might be an issue for new construction. he's done this before in homes he's lived in before.

Good Luck with That! It's just a box... it's suppose to go into the electrical box but it really doesn't fit in the normal size boxes. I had to tie wrap mine to the lamp externally. There is no screw holes for mounting to anything!

You could place it on the side of a table - you would need about three square inche area to mount the light.

Pushing this through a hole rather defeats the purpose. Install a standard light socket, then screw this in to it like a lightbulb. Much easier and more flexible for additional options. I know this post is old, but since people still read the Q&A; I thought I'd post another answer.

I think you could try Velcro to mount the light to the wall. With the batteries, the light has a little weight to it.

No, it cannot be installed as a hanging light. The base must be flush mounted

Yes. Use a round box. The light comes with a metal strap the screws to the box. The light then screws into the strap.

You would need a special hexagonal mount. This light's battery is C cell diameter.

I'm not sure. I don't have any boxes behind my lights. They're on my garage, so I just mounted them right to the side of the garage. If the box is flush with the building, it will probably work. If not, You'll probably need some kind of adaptor plate. I'm sure you can get the dimensions of the base. Also, you might want to download the instructions (which you can probably get from the manufacturer's web site) and they'll show you a range of installation possibilities. These lights are great though. Worth EVERY penny.

This lite has a fixed loop of 6 inches. You would need to add spacers to bring the light out away from the wall.

I'm sorry, there is no way to attach this to a wall. It is a great little desk lamp, but not for the wall.

Yes it will attach to a regular box, but I would not recommend this fixture. It is actually very small. The picture looks bigger but the fixture is really small.

That would work as you can keep adding extensions. Make sure though you screw the fixtures into the wall. Just for stability.

Twiggy, I am sorry I can't directly answer that question as I installed the lamp on an existing mount. I removed the old fixture and replaced it with this one as a front porch light. Our house has a typical stucco textured wall. Wish I could put a link to their manual but their website (http://designersedge.com) is not there yet :o). But all in all, I don't see why you couldn't install this on horizontal lap siding as long the area this needs to installed on, is flat. There's not much "cavity" / space at the back of the unit so the wall opening would have to have space for the junction wires etc. Sorry couldn't help more. But I love the light. It's basically trouble-free (for the lazy amongst us!). You never have to turn it on or off! The light is really bright white though it "stands out" odd in my community - all the other houses have those yellowish dull lights that are there more for name sake than for lighting! Best, Kenny

I would think the answer to be "Yes" from a ceiling electrical box but likely not so froma wall box as you will need to fashion and elbow linkage whether the light shines up or hangs down.It offers many possible configurations and is a very good value item to hang in variety of ways. Blue

Hello it is possible to use a plug, but it is not necessary because the light is LED, which lasts a considerable time with the battery. Of course, an electrician can certainly hard wire it for you, which I had done in our previous house . The one I had previously had one more angle of use, which I liked, but I have not seen that recently when I looked. It pulls out 12". You may wish to tape it into position while you decide on the most convenient height and location.

Maybe?! The cool thing about this light is the casing is aluminium. So if you have the tools and skills you could tap it and built a seriously strong mount for it. Out of the box? I'd say the mount it comes with would not stand up to that kind of use.
