TIA,

Note that the light levels in nature vary greatly so you should think those numbers as a guide only (I can't remeber what data I used for the numbers) .

Don't have a decent picture, at least not on my website. This is the only shot. The pendants are hung from the top of the canopy using fully threaded six inch long 1/4" bolts. Using nuts on top of the canopy, I can raise and lower the lights easily. I'll try to get a better picture this evening.

Thanx, the explanation not only helps me, but hopefully anybody else that goes thru this thread.
