How do you decide what INTENSITY level to use? I can't find info on the best setting to start out with & don't know how bright it should be!

I'd suggest starting with a low intensity and building up- do the same with the time. Maybe 10-15 minutes at low to start.

Sorry,no idea. I simply run it at max. I doubt there's any downside so long as you don't peer directly into it. Good luck/stay happy.

I have only used the brightest setting. Of course, you should not look directly at it. (Really you can't, or not for more than a second.) If you are using this lamp for SAD, I can't imagine why you wouldn't want it as bright as possible, unless you suddenly have more energy than you know what to do with! :)

There are four color settings, each with five intensity levels. I often switch among the color settings, depending on what I am doing.

The manufacturer did not specify. Suggest you contact UCO/Industrial Revolution. I'd guess and say the low level setting is about 2/3 to 3/4 less than high setting. Manufacturer says high is 150 lumen but I think its more like 100-125 which is still very good for the price.

I tried those settings and omg so awful, my son died as I was changing them. I went back to default and it's so much better, brighter and sharper. When I changed the sharpness to 3 it was all foggy, how is that working for everyone???

If at all possible try to split in 2 directions so you have 2 power supplies, supplying 30 ft each. should keep the intensity bright. I used 2 strips off one power supply and had a great affect, only I did not tie them end to end as you would need to do, but the lights were very bright and worked very well with one power supply. hope this helps, good luck.

There are four light settings on this: Off, Low, Medium, and High. There is a noticeable difference between each setting and the low is actually low and not a slightly dimmer high beam. I am never jarred awake by it when I roll over and my eyes crack open a little.

I am no expert on night vision tech. That said when you activate the infared feature you get a really bright image. It seem to be a little fuzzy. but that could be me. Zero in at what ever rough distance you will be using it and blast away. What ever you get beats shooting in the dark.

thank you for the questionactually I returned it back as it didnt match my requirements using it in big room, regarding resolution and illumination (lumins units)wish to help you more :)

Lumins don't seem to mean much as far as brightness. I finally went by colortemp. Higher the temp the brighter. I just used a dimmer.

If yours isn't doing like this video at the beginning then return it. It should look like lighting in the sky quick flashes etc...Hope it helps...really is a great light!http://youtu.be/CZXFgRxgj34

The lights are at 3200k which is warmer than daylight. Set your color balance for the shoot and all should be fine. Should you have a mixed daylight plus these lights and feel there is too much yellow to your liking, simply pull out some yellow in edit. I am satisfied with these lights.

Has anyone else tried the "bright" mode trick? Any comments on the difference...

Play around with the EV. I usually keep mine at +2.0 for a lot of my low light shots. Keep in mind though that sometimes even that won't help. The auto mode sometimes help too.

Brightness is personal preference. You might be fine with it, and another person may not be. So unfortunately I'm unable to answer that. keep in mind that the directions explain that the light should not be directly in front of you. So you might want to place the light in the corner of your desk.

You can use anything 40 W or below. Depends how bright you want it. Either way, you'll probably want to put it on a dimmer switch.

Sorry, I didn't play around with the adjustments (don't even know how to do them). I'm happy with the levels and don't recall how bright it was before. Love how well it dims my led cans.
