Questions regarding Tech Lighting 150-Watt Single Circuit Monorail Kit - 700MOKTS150

• Can this kit be ordered with 2 adj 3″ standoffs (700moso3)?
• Does the surface mount transformer come with feed cable?
• What is the cost for 3 madeleine pendants complete with adaptors and cables- color-TBD?

Answer: Tech lighting does not allow swapping of parts, even something minor like switching the rigid standoffs for the adjacent standoffs, so you would have to purchase the adjacent stand offs separately.

Also, you asked if there was cable feed that is supplied? Cable feed is not included with the tech lighting kit. However, it is included with the LBL monorail kit, which may also make it easier for you since you are interested in LBL Lighting Madeleine Pendant Light - HS268.

You can visit this link to see the different kits that LBL Lighting offers. Please advise if you would still like to go with either company, we can offer a discount once we figure out what you will be ordering.

I really like the Quoizel Lighting Imperial Traditional Mini Pendant Light - QZ-IM1506HL but notice the height is about 50 some inches high. We only have an eight foot ceiling. Since pendants will need to be 30+ inches off the counter we will only have a little more than two feet to hang a pendant light. Can the rod height be adjusted?

Answer: This pendant light from Quoizel Lighting has an overall height of 54″ the height includes (3) 12″ Rods. Thus, You will have a little over two feet to hang the pendant light from your 8ft ceiling. You can use 2 out of the 3 rods to achieve this. However, you will have the extra rod, should you want to hang the pendant light lower, but given the 3ft rule of thumb (from the counter) we think the two rods will be just right.

My question is about the Tiella from Tech Lighting selection of pendants. I shop at my local Lowes, and their pendant selection is all rated at 35 watt, yet I see the same pendants available online listed as having 50 watt bulbs. Is the wiring the same for both lighting fixtures or is it different? Can a 50 watt bulb be placed in a 35 watt pendant?

Answer: Tech Lighting supplies Lowes with its products, but indeed there are subtle differences between the products sold to them and the products sold to online dealers. Thus, there is a difference in wiring if the maximum wattage of the pendants (at Lowes) can take is 35W. We would not recommend using a 50W bulb in a 35W fixture because it will burn it out, as well it can damage the glass and/or finish on the fixture. We hope this information helps.

What does 3x 26W mean? Can this Progress Lighting Eclipse Transitional Inverted Pendant Light - PG-P3495-33EB accept a higher wattage bulb, like a 75 or 100 watt? Please advise.

Answer: 3X26W means that this pendant lighting fixture from Progress Lighting has three bulbs that are 26W each. The Maximum Wattage is 26W on each bulb, you can go below but you can not go above the listed wattage. Hence, you can not use the 75W or 100W. Total Lamping is 26W X 3 = 78W.

The picture for Kenroy Medici Contemporary Pendant Light - KR-44301-BS-CONF and Kenroy Medici Contemporary Pendant Light - KR-44303-BS-CONF shows a white with blue/red confetti, and the picture beside shows a amber/gold with multi color confetti. There is no color choice to order or is it the same pendants with the bulb on and then off. I want to order the amber/gold along with matching single pendants for my home I am building. I need the model numbers for the color choice for amber/gold for single and double.

Answer: These pendant lights do not have color options. The picture in the thumbnail was provided by one of our customers and the glass is lit. Please be advised that these lights are made and shipped in different batches directly from Kenroy (the manufacturer), so one batch may be darker than other bathches and vice versa, but the idea is that variation will occur. However, by choosing the confetti- that acts as the color option is just a matter of variation that constitutes the color or appearance of the glass. We hope this information is helpful. Many customers really enjoy the finish of the glass because of the variation in colors.

When it indicates 24″ for this Meyda Tiffany Fishscale Inverted Tiffany Pendant Light - MD-67381 is that from the change connection or the entire fixture? We have a ceiling height of 9″ but will be walking through this room without a table under the light.

Answer: We spoke to Meyda Tiffany (the manufacturer), who advised us that the shade dimension of this inverted pendant light is 9″H x 24″W. They said that this fixture from the bottom of the finial to just before the chain is about 22″H. Using only one link of chain, the overall height of the fixture can hang as high as 25.5″ to as low as 60.5″.

Thus, this fixture is supplied with 3′ of chain and about 4′ of wire. You could add more chain and wire to the fixture if you wanted it to hang lower. The cost per additional foot is $3.00. We hope this information is helpful.
