What is the recommended distance between the bottom of a hanging light fixture and a table?

FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful Hint: Take a string and tape it to a shape of a shade/globe made from cardboard, then tack or tape the string to the ceiling where you want the light fixture to hang. Adjust the string to different heights, then leave it there to live with for a while. Watch for vision blocking or positions where a head could come into contact. This will help you determine the right height for your custom fixture.

Can I use a compact fluorescent light bulb in an enclosed light fixture?

GE Consumer & Industrial Lighting: Ask Us: FAQs - Compact Fl...
Compact fluorescent light bulbs may generally be used in enclosed fixtures as long as the enclosed fixture is not recessed. Totally enclosed recessed fixtures (for example, a ceiling can light with a cover over the bulb) create temperatures that are too high to allow the use of a compact fluorescent bulb.

Black wire is positive (+) and white wire is negative(-). Our fixtures are protected against reversed polarity.

What causes a fluorescent light fixture to hum?

Frequently Asked Questions - Lighting Supply Company
All fluorescent lights require a ballast to function. Both magnetic and electronic fluorescent ballasts give off a slight humming noise; harmonics is the technical term. By design an electronic ballast has reduced harmonics and therefore the hum is less noticeable than when using a magnetic ballast. If the hum is louder than usual the ballast may need to be replaced.

Back to Top Subject: Can I install a replacement light fixture?

FAQ
In general, one can replace fixtures freely, subject to a few caveats. First, of course, one should check the amperage rating of the circuit. If your heart is set on installing half a dozen 500 watt floodlights, you may need to run a new wire back to the panel box. But there are some more subtle constraints as well. For example, older house wiring doesn't have high-temperature insulation.

x2022; Q. What type of light fixture do you recommend?

i-Zombie.com • FAQ
We recommend using the PAR-38S PAR cans available on our Accessory Zone page for indoor applications. The cans are made of steel rather than the flimsy aluminum cans that are so common. They use standard screw-in base flood lights and come with gel holders and a hanging bracket for mounting the fixture. The unit also has a five foot power cord with a grounded plug. Another big advantage to using PAR cans is that you can swivel and tilt the can so that it is pointed exactly where you want it.

What is the distance from various table positions to the back wall?

Dice Setters - Track your sets, grips and tosses.
It depends on the length of the crap table. I prefer the 12 foot tables and would suggest this as a starting point for new setters. From stick right to the back wall is approximately 8 foot 2 inches. Some stick people will move back out of your way (especially if you're betting for them) and let you lean to the left. I'm right handed so it really shortens the toss by a good foot or two.
