Hahaha...although lite set completed but now don't know how to hang the lite leh!

Wife not allow to drill hole on the wall or ceiling so must think of a way to hold the lite. My initial thought is to DIY a square bar or round aluminum rod to create reverse L shape to hold the lite or try to source off the shelf type. Isit good?

Anyone have any idea or input? please chip in........

Here is my thought of MY 2 Lite stand holder design, 1st is double bar and 2nd is single bar (Dimension not confirm yet).

I personnelly prefer single bar if it can withstand 1.5kg holding weight..

Please comment.

A stronger elbow joint should be able to hold the 1.5kg. There are many different types of elbow joint available for your choice.

I think the bar holder may need two. The other one nearer the bottom end. I had almost same setup install rear of cabinet using the mazarra light mounts. For added safety.With only one there might have some free play movement.

Yes...you are right.

For safety, I will add 2 more bar holder if select option 1 else add 1 more for option 2... :thumbsup: .

Btw, possible to post the picture of your mazarra stand here?
