Table Light Recommendations

[Black-Balled]

Always have preferred no light cept on the play surface.
When you play 15 twenty hours with this traditional set up, no eye fatigue.
Nothing better than these for a 9' .
Bottom of the bulb sits 36'' off the play surface.
You have an incredible selection of Bulbs for this setup.
Closeup lighting gives one clarity of shot.

That's what's being done.

The table is Oak/Cherry and that's basically what the light will be.

The actual perimeter light is $579 for 9 foot version. There is a version on Amazon for the nine footer that’s about 339 and just as good. What I’m doing for my pool table is I’ve got 2 -8 foot lights. Both dimmable and temp/color adjustable for $135 each. So for $270 i have lighting 95% as good as the perimeter light

I’ve got two 2x4 color and wattage selectable with five settings each. I think I set the color to 3500k, my wife doesn’t like the bluer colors. The panels were about $60 each

The led panels are a soft light. The first and last pictures are taken with the light on. I don't notice any glare when playing.

True, but it's not a ''cutting'' light allowing shooter to see the ball even clearer with a bulb 36'' away from the play surface and 33 3/4'' away from the top of the obj. ball.
Operating rooms don't use overhead lighting miscues not allowed there.

You can see the light I have above the GCIV here. It certainly gets the job done.

And the Littman light is way too expensive. Don't want to spend that much $$$.

You wall shadows look similar, your fixture tho is waaaaaaaaaaay too high up off the play surface, unless you want that extra skirted lighting.

You want a cheap but effectice light. Buy a large four bulb shop light from Home Depot. Easy install and more than adequate in a pinch. Did that several times in garage installs on a budget with no complaints.
