I'm trying to hang this vertically to cut the blinding glare from setting sun that is directly behind the basketball backboard,will this shade enough?

Depends on density of tarp, and degree of shade you're looking for, but it will cut down on glare significantly.

I have mine mounted on the side of my house, under an upper deck. I'm not sure if that's what you mean by "overhang". If you meant hanging it horizontally, I'm not sure that would work. If you can make it work vertically, it's a great light. Otherwise, maybe check in to some spotlight styles that have the sensor below and adjustable.

The shade will only go as far down as the window height, unless you pull it further outside the window frame. Our windows are only 37" tall and they look fine, there is just extra at the bottom that isn't noticeable.

Depends on spacing of slats but lets say theyre 2in apart that would be 50% shade at noon.I believe the fabric alone would do better than that.I put it on over 2x2 spaced slats and provides great shade.I also have a couple 12 x25 pieces to cover my trailer when in the desert.

The shade is very thin and does not block visibility. I think it'd be fine!

It will be fine if panel is kept vertical facing south. it provides an amazing amount of light for as inexpensive as it is. We use it in our remote goat barn. You might want two for a 20x10 garage

I was making an outdoor backdrop. When it was early morning and in the shade with no back lighting it worked fine. But assoon as the sun would hit something bright in the background or the sun came out and hit the back it showed real bad. I did not test to see how it work if the sun was hitting the front.

If you mounted them outside of the window you would have to add a piece of wood at the top to hold the shade. This arrangement would work but not look very good. If you need an outside mount, buy a regular shade, not a pleated one, as that would look a lot better.

I would say yes. I use mine to create a shade over my pool here in Nevada due to high 100+ temperatures. I don't mind a slight a slight sag in the middle. You can get the sagging out by using the correct screw brackets on each end to tighten the cover. I also use a fairly heavy set of 4 springs(one on each side) to give it a little bounce during the windy days.

it would definitely provide shade.... although despite the vent in the back, it didn't have a whole lot of air flow unless you were right near the front.

I personally don't think it would look right. It is smaller than it looks in the picture (we used it in a walk in closet and it looks fine). I think if you were hanging a bulb from the ceiling, you would want a bigger shade, made of something other than plastic.

No, we had to go to Lowes and buy wire, u bolts, and eye bolts to tie to the posts and soffit of the house. We hung two one slightly about 6 or 8 inches above and the top one slightly off set to get more coverage. Be sure and know where the morning and afternoon suns rays will hit the area under the shades. We only get about 4 hours of shade that moves across the area under the shades.

If left in shaded area it will be fine, I got it for my twin grandsons and my daughter leaves it up all summer and it is fine, and she lives in Louisiana. Hope this answers your question

Absolutely. I used it to cover my van windows in the desert and it worked great. One caveat -- I installed this outside, covering the windows and it is VERY reflective. Your neighbors might not be pleased.

I am not sure, you may need an extra large shade. It is better to have a big one so it is easy to put up & stay up.

Depends on the orientation of the electrical box inside the wall, and whether the two screws that hold the body of the light itself will line up. Additionally, the shade itself is only anchored in one place, on top, to hold it in place. You would put a stress on the opposite end with nothing holding it in place with the weight of gravity.

Not at all. The darkest shade will work perfectly for you. It looks a lot lighter in the package than it actually is.
