The Domus Maxi 40 is a 1.7m suspended LED linear pendant 34W, 3000K at CRI90, dimmable, in ablack body with a high diffuser.

Its published output conflicts with its own order code read this first

• We measured it rather than assuming. Across all 88 Domus linear listingscarrying an order code, 3 publish a lumen figure that contradicts their own colour temperature and all three are 3000K codes carrying the 4000K figure. Never thereverse. 85 of 88 are correct.
• The consistent direction matters: it points to a transposition from the4000K variant, not to a genuinely brighter fitting.
• Plan on 3060lm. The difference is about 11% enough to matter against a lux target, not enough to change which fitting you choose.
• We have flagged it with Domus. Ask us before committing to a calculationand we will get the confirmed figure.

Everything else in the specification is consistent

Across all 88 linear listings the length matches the order code without exception, and thewattage divides to exactly 20.0W/m without exception. The lumen field is the onlyone that misbehaves, and only on three products.

Made to order, and no lead time is published

Domus asks you to call and confirm it. We will settle the lumen figure in thesame call.

Where it works

• 2.5m tables, bars and communal settings at 3000K.
• Dark and exposed ceilings a black body disappears.
• Anywhere colour is judged CRI90.
• Not worked to a lux target until the output is confirmed.
• Not anywhere damp IP20.

Specifying it

1.7m suspended LED linear pendant. 34W, 3000K, CRI90. 120 down-only. IP20.1700mm. 3m drop. PLEX-COB-20W strip, integral dimmable driver, DALI and emergency on request.Black body, high diffuser. 3-year replacement warranty. Order code MAXI-40-1.7M-HD-B-3K. SKUs3025530258. 240V. ITS PUBLISHED 3400lm CONFLICTS WITH ITS OWN 3000K ORDER CODE every 3000Klisting gives 1800lm/m, which at 1.7m is 3060lm, and its own flat and low siblings bothpublish that. 3 of 88 linear listings carry this, all in the same direction. Plan on 3060lm. Length and wattage check out on all 88.

Questions

How much light does it actually give?

Plan on 3060 lumens and treat the published 3400 as the optimistic case. Its order code is MAXI-40-1.7M-HD-B-3K a 3000K product and every 3000K listing in the range publishes 1800 lumens per metre, which at 1.7m is 3060lm. Its own flat and low siblings in the same black body at the same colour temperature both publish 3060lm. The 3400 figure is what every 4000K listing at this length publishes.

How sure are you it is an error?

Sure enough to tell you, not sure enough to overwrite the supplier. Measured across all 88 Domus linear listings carrying an order code, 3 publish a lumen figure that contradicts their own colour temperature and all three are 3000K codes carrying the 4000K figure, never the reverse. That consistent direction points to a transposition rather than a genuinely brighter fitting. 85 of 88 are correct.

Does the difference matter?

About 11%, so it depends on the job. Against a lux target across a room it is enough to change the fitting count and worth resolving first. Over a single bar or table it is not enough to change which fitting you choose. Ask us before committing to a calculation and we will get the confirmed figure from Domus.

Is the rest of the specification trustworthy?

Yes, and we checked rather than assuming. Across all 88 linear listings the published length matches the order code without exception, and the wattage divides to exactly 20.0 watts per metre without exception. The lumen field is the only one that misbehaves, and only on three products. So CRI90, IP20, the 120 degree down-only beam, the 3m drop and the 3-year replacement warranty all stand.

What is CRI90 worth over a bar?

A great deal. Warm light with poor colour rendering makes drinks, garnishes and food look wrong in a way guests notice without being able to name it. CRI90 is high for a linear pendant of this kind above the CRI 80 or better that the Domus MAX-50 profile range publishes and at 3000K it means warm light that still renders honestly.

Will 1.7m suit my bar or table?

It suits about 2.5m of surface roughly two-thirds the length, which lights evenly without overhanging the ends. For a longer bar, two with a deliberate gap read better than one fitting stretched, and the gap should be half a fitting length or more so it registers as rhythm.

Can I use it in a damp space?

No IP20, dry interior only. For bathrooms, covered outdoor areas, commercial kitchens or unsealed bays, ask us about the Domus IMPACT range at IP66 and IK10.
