The Vantel PE60 is a 600mm circular LED pendant in black 36W giving 1,035lm, withswitchable 3000K / 4000K / 5000K, dimmable.

This is not an efficient fitting, and the number mattersbecause it is large. 36W for 1,035lm is 29 lumens per watt among the lowest in this catalogue. An efficient fitting produces the same light fromabout 10 watts.

The figures are not an error. The 800mm gives 30lm/W and the two-tier26, independently the family confirms itself. The Vantel is bought forthe form: a clean 600mm lit circle. It will cost roughlythree times as much to run as an efficient fitting of the same brightness, and nosource said so.

A 600mm ring the domestic size

The Vantel is a circle of light, and at 600mm it is the size that suits anormal dining room, a bedroom or an entry where the800mm wants a large room and the two-tier wants height.

Its 650mm overall height is worth noting: unlike the other two Vantels, thisone has a recorded depth, and 650mm is substantial. It is not a flat ringagainst the ceiling it is a form with real vertical presence, so allow for itwhen planning the drop over a table.

1,035 lumens a feature, not a room light

Moderate. Over a dining table it works as the central fitting with other light inthe room; as the only light in a living space it is not enough. Plan accordingly.

Dimmable, and switchable across three colours

3000K, 4000K, 5000K set at installation, plusdimming on the wall. That is rarer in this catalogue than you would expect many bright pendants here cannot be dimmed at all and on a fitting bought for itsform it matters: dimmed, the ring stops being a light and becomes a drawncircle.

Aluminium, iron and silicon

The silicon missing from our record seals and diffuses along thering; the aluminium sheds heat, which at 36W is what determines LED life.

Where it works

• Over dining tables and islands in a normal-sized room.
• Bedrooms and entries, as a clean circular form.
• Commercial receptions and meeting rooms.
• 29lm/W roughly three times the running cost of an efficient fitting.
• 650mm tall allow for the depth when planning the drop.

Questions

Why 36 watts for only 1,035 lumens?

29 lumens per watt among the lowest in this catalogue, where an efficient fitting produces the same light from about 10 watts. The figures are not an error: the 800mm gives 30 and the two-tier 26 independently, so the family confirms itself. You buy a Vantel for the form, and it costs roughly three times as much to run.

How tall is it?

650mm and unlike the other two Vantels, this one has a recorded depth. It is not a flat ring against the ceiling but a form with real vertical presence, so allow for it when planning the drop over a table.

Which Vantel should I choose?

This 600mm for a normal dining room, bedroom or entry. The 800mm wants a large room. The two-tier wants height and reads from the side rather than below. All three run at much the same efficiency, so choose on form and scale.

Is it bright enough?

Over a dining table it works as the central fitting with other light in the room; as the only light in a living space it is not enough.

Can I dim it?

Yes, and it switches between 3000, 4000 and 5000K at installation. That is rarer here than you would expect many bright pendants cannot be dimmed at all and on a fitting bought for its form it matters: dimmed, the ring stops being a light and becomes a drawn circle.

How heavy is it?

Not recorded, for a 600mm pendant on an 80mm canopy. Ask us before the fixing is chosen.

What is it made of?

Aluminium, iron and silicon the silicon is missing from our record and does the sealing and diffusing along the ring. The aluminium sheds heat, which at 36W determines LED life.
