Chuck, it appears the feet ride in a groove. Put a spacer under them the
thickness of the groove so you can loosen the screw, rotate, retighten. Two
lights and the bracket give free shipping....<hint>

That's cool. I didn't know these little, adjustable LEDs were available. The
filters are also a nice touch. I immediately started thinking of using 2 of
them with an arrangement like
this<http://www.amazon.com/Neewer%C2%AE-7-inch-Bracket-Camera-CN-160/dp/B00K7146TS/ref=pd_tcs_compl_p_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=04M4XB1339C668CJQWQZ>
It appears that the lights will tilt up/down but not rotate on their own
support post. The dual light bracket can tilt its arms inward but I've been
trying to figure out if the mounting feet can also rotate. That would allow
rotating a light but without having to rotate the bracket.
