The Hovin PE43 is a 430mm minimalist LED pendant in black or white sand integrated 22W giving 1,760lm at 3000K,TRIAC dimmable, on a 2,000mm suspension.

It is not a 43-light pendant. Our page said so, and ithas one integrated LED. The 43 is itsdiameter in centimetres 430mm across.

1,760 lumens on a 430mm disc

80lm/W efficient, and enough to be themain light over a dining table, a breakfast bar or a small kitchen island. It will notcarry a large open-plan room on its own; the 580mm version givesmore than twice the light and is the one for that.

Which size?

The 580 gives more than twice the light for 68% more power, so the larger size isalso the more efficient one which is unusual and worth knowing. Choose the430mm because 430mm is the right diameter for the space, not to saverunning cost: over a smaller table, a breakfast bar or a bedroom, a 580mm discwould dominate.

Broad and very shallow and that is the point

60mm deep. A disc stays above the sightline between peoplesitting opposite each other at a table, where a deep pendant of the same width hangs into it. On alow ceiling, it also keeps head height that a bowl or a shade would take.

The sand texture is right on a plain form: a gloss disc catchesevery downlight in the room as a hard highlight on its rim; a fine textured coatscatters that, so the fitting reads as shape and colour rather than reflection.

TRIAC dimming, on an ordinary wall dimmer

Full range, no special gear. At 1,760 lumens over a table that is what lets onefitting be a working light at full and an evening one low and it is worth noting that several comparable pendants in this cataloguedo not dim at all.

Black or white. White disappears against awhite ceiling when off, so the fitting is only present when it is working.Black reads as a deliberate dark disc the more graphic choice,and it holds its own against a timber or dark ceiling.

The LED is integrated and included at a fixed 3000K nothing to buy, nothing to replace, nothing to change.

Questions

Does it really have 43 lights?

No it has one integrated LED. The 43 is its diameter in centimetres: 430mm across. Our page called it a 43-light pendant.

Which size should I choose?

The 430mm because it is the right diameter for the space, not to save running cost the 580mm gives more than twice the light for 68% more power, so the larger size is actually the more efficient one. Over a smaller table, a breakfast bar or a bedroom, a 580mm disc would dominate.

Is it bright enough?

1,760 lumens is enough to be the main light over a dining table, breakfast bar or small kitchen island. It will not carry a large open-plan room on its own the 580mm version is the one for that.

Will it hang into the sightline over a table?

No at only 60mm deep it is a disc, so it stays above the line between people sitting opposite each other. On a low ceiling it also keeps head height that a bowl or shade would take.

Can I dim it?

Yes TRIAC, on an ordinary wall dimmer, full range and no special gear. Worth noting because several comparable pendants in this catalogue do not dim at all.

Black or white?

White disappears against a white ceiling when off, so the fitting is only present when it is working. Black reads as a deliberate dark disc and holds its own against a timber or dark ceiling.

How heavy is it?
