The Pedral PE18 is a 180mm traditional coach-style outdoor pendant in blackor bronze with textured glass one E27 globe to 25W,not supplied, IP44, on a 1,750mm suspension.

It hangs on chain, on rod, or on both and our page was cut offmid-word saying so. Outdoors that is a wind decision:

• Chain is the traditional look and lets the lantern move.Charming under a sheltered porch; restless in an exposed position, where it swings,wears the flex over years and can knock against a post.
• Rod holds it rigid and still the right answer anywherethat catches wind, and anywhere a swinging fitting would be at head height.
• Both lets you make up an exact drop when neither alone gives theheight.

Tell us the position and the ceiling height and we will specify it.

The small one and it gives exactly the same light

Both Pedral pendants take the same single E27 to 25W. The180mm is not the dimmer option; it is the same lantern at a smaller scale, and300mm tall against the 230mm version’s 340.

That makes it the one to use in numbers. Arun of three or four small lanterns down a verandah or a covered walkway is betterproportioned than the same run in the large size, and givesmore total light than one big one which, since every Pedral takes the sameglobe, is the only way to get more light from this range.

It also suits a lower covered ceiling, where a 340mm lantern on a long dropstarts to intrude.

Where an outdoor pendant goes

Most exterior lighting is wall or ground mounted, because most outdoor areas haveno ceiling. This is for the ones that do covered porches, verandahs, alfrescoceilings, carports, covered walkways and solid-roofed pergolas.

And since Pedral is made as pendants and wall lanterns, an entry can carrya pendant over the door with lanterns either side in the same language, which very fewexterior ranges allow.

No weight is recorded for either Pedral pendant,though the matching wall lights record 2.5 and 3.5kg. On a 1,750mm dropoutdoors, where the fitting may move in wind, that is the figure your electrician needs.Ask us before the fixing is chosen particularly for a run of several.

The globe, behind textured glass

Textured glass scatters rather than hiding, so you see asoftened, distorted form of the globe. One E27 to 25W, notsupplied:

• A decorative LED filament globe or ST64 reads as awarm glowing core, which is what a coach lantern is designed around.
• Rated for ENCLOSED fittings, because it is sealed and heat with nowhere to gokills LED globes.
• Warm 2700K cool white makes it a security light.
• Hanging a run? Buy them all together, same brand: mismatched lanterns along averandah are obvious from the garden.

It dims, with the right globe. Our record saysNo; the datasheet and our page both sayglobe dependent, and they are right. Over an outdoor table, or along a verandah in theevening, that is worth having and in a run,matched globes are what keeps them flicker-free on one dimmer.

IP44 covered positions only.Splashing water, not driving rain or jets, so an open-sided verandah taking rainsideways is not the place for it. Our page has it right atOutdoor (Covered Area).180mm wide by 300mm high, canopy 100mm, inaluminium and textured glass,ClassI earth required.

Where it works

• Covered porches and entries and in runs down a verandah.
• Lower covered ceilings, where the 230mm would intrude.
• With Pedral wall lanterns either side of a door.
• Choose rod anywhere that catches wind.
• Same light as the 230mm use several for more.

Questions

Chain or rod?

Outdoors that is a wind decision, and our page was cut off mid-word saying the option exists. Chain is traditional and lets the lantern move charming under a sheltered porch, restless in an exposed position where it swings and wears the flex. Rod holds it rigid and still, which is right anywhere that catches wind or where a swinging fitting would be at head height. Both together makes up an exact drop.

Is it dimmer than the 230mm pendant?

No both take the same single E27 to 25W. It is the same lantern at a smaller scale, 300mm tall against 340. That makes it the one to use in numbers: a run of three or four is better proportioned down a verandah and gives more total light than one large lantern, which is the only way to get more light from this range.

How heavy is it?

Not recorded, on either Pedral pendant though the matching wall lights record 2.5 and 3.5kg. On a 1,750mm drop outdoors, where the fitting may move in wind, that is what your electrician needs. Ask us before the fixing is chosen, particularly for a run.

Where can it hang?

Anywhere with a covered ceiling a porch or entry, a verandah, an alfresco ceiling, a carport, a covered walkway or a solid-roofed pergola. Most exterior lighting is wall or ground mounted because most outdoor areas have no ceiling.

What globe should I buy?

A decorative LED filament globe or ST64 rated for enclosed fittings, in warm 2700K. The textured glass scatters rather than hides, so the globe still shows. Hanging a run? Buy them all together, same brand mismatched lanterns along a verandah are obvious from the garden.

Can I dim it?

Yes, with a dimmable globe. Our record says No; the datasheet and page both say globe dependent, and they are right. In a run, matched globes are what keeps them flicker-free on one dimmer.

Can it hang on an open verandah?

Only if genuinely sheltered IP44 is splashing water, not driving rain. An open-sided verandah that takes rain sideways is not the place for it.
