Does the canopy have a notch to run cord along ceiling? Is 40W Edison type bulb enough? TIA!

The canopy does not have a notch, 40w seems fine. This light is located in my pantry and works great!

The tube simply houses the cord and it is purely for looks--some pendant lights hang directly from the cord. The canopy, however, has a small (about 1 inch) tube that must be used with the light to install it as described. I am not sure how it would adapt for your other light; if you're handy it can probably be modified, but I think you won't know unless you have it in hand.

According to the material that came with the lamp, you are only supposed to use a 40 w bulb, and it has to be small enough to fit in the shade. It isn't really bright enough for what I use it for, but . . . .

None that I am aware of at present. I installed my Full Spectrum Light Bulbs (ALZO 45W CFL) in light sockets without a globe or shade (not my original plan). Used in this fashion they throw a lot of light as long as you aren't too concerned about appearances. One is mounted horizontally and another vertically. Both have been in service since the beginning of this year without any problem.

This is one canopy, with one power cord and the ability to turn each half with (2 bulbs) on independently. The sides would have to be switched manually as there is only one power cord to plug into a timer.

The light comes with all the instructions and hardware for hardwiring it to the ceiling; not what we wanted or needed. We went to the local home improvement store (pick just about any), and picked up the plug adapter (all of about $4 maybe?) and now have it suspended and plugged in to a socket. It took longer to weave the wires through the chain than it did to install the adapter! It is a very nice and well made light.

This fixture is hung on a cord, not with stems. Please contact our customer service staff f(1-800-921-4162) for further assistance.

It is hardwire. The shade is made of paper. The light bulb is candelebra (small). I am looking for a better shade or better lamp.

Yes. The cord is extremely long & we only needed a few feet. My husband cut the cord & hard wired them into what used to be the recessed can lighting. Just a simple splice, electricians tape & cap. I love mine. :)

Yes it does. But it takes as short a bulb as you can find. The shades could stand to be made a little taller. I ended up using some short instant on CFL's. It looks great on or off. Nice fixture.

None in fact i have both a corded and a cordless shade and like the corded one much better. However, good luck finding the corded ones....i think they are all being phased out.

There is a frosted acrylic diffuser plate on the bottom so you don't see any bulbs from below. The shortest stem included in the kit is about 6" and the shade itself is pretty deep so it might be a little low for 8' ceilings. I have it hanging over my bed so it's not a problem. I love the pattern that shows when it is lit.

... it doesn't come with any plug or hangar - I used it to replace an existing hanging lamp so was able to use the cord/chain/hangar from that one - I guess they expect this lamp to be installed by a "qualified electrician" - hard-wired - I'm not one, but it was fairly simple to do myself.

This comes with a cord for the light and plug. You have to assemble this, and you will need a ceiling hook. This has a great look and I recommend this.

I believe the manufacturer intended it to be wired into the ceiling, but with slight modification I made it plug into a nearby wall outlet. I bought 10 feet of lamp cord, a plug, and an inline toggle switch. The power wire included with the lamp went up into the ceiling through the threaded center tube, but I then brought it back down through another hole in the ceiling (also under the decorative flange). I made a half-inch cut at the edge of the flange with tin snips to allow the lamp cord to exit the flange without getting pinched. The lamp cord goes along the ceiling to the wall, down the wall to the outlet. I put the in-line switch just above the outlet, at chest height.

Hi -- yes, it comes with a cord. The "fixture only" refers to not coming with bulbs. These work great because the chain links allow for different heights. Hint: If you're using these as a grow light, don't spend oodles on "grow bulbs." Just buy regular old fluorescents. I read on a plant site that for seedlings it's not so much the kind of light as just getting the light itself. At that stage, light is light.

Its adjustable, There's about 10 ft or more of cord which you can adjust. I adjusted mine to about 4 ft of length from the ceiling and stuffed the excess into the base of the fixture
