I can't provide any measurements, but yes, you have a match.
It isn't a movie projector...it is ok if light dribbles off the cloth, ya know?

The Diamond lights point straight down with their diffusers or whatever those are called.
This creates a different shadow on object balls near either end rail than do the standard type of lights. I've watched many a player cut too thin on these shots under Diamond lights.
Maybe my judgment isn't correct here, but I have problems with these shots, too, and must take an extra second or two when under Diamond lights.
I'd think a shorter version on a longer table would make that problem greater, but not sure about that.
My opinion from subjective observations, so take it as such.

Thanks Rob, that was my thinking also. That is why I asked if anyone has had success with using a 7' light on a 8' table and at what height they were successful? These lights a expensive and I don't want our community to buy the 7' lights if they won't work on a 8' table.

I often play in a pool hall that has oversized 8' Diamond Tables. They have the 7' Diamond lights over each table that appear to be at the recommended height. The amount of light on the table seems to be quite adequate both in daylight and at night when the pool hall is dimly lit.
