Product Description
xThe Fordo PE180 is a 1,800 mm linear pendant in black — six LEDs, 30 W total, giving 2,450 lm at 3000 K, TRIAC dimmable, on a 2,000 mm suspension.
1.8 metres of light in a 110 mm bar
1,800 mm long, 110 mm wide, only 45 mm deep. That shallow depth is the useful number over a table: the Fordo covers the length without hanging into your eyeline, where a deeper fitting of the same span would. It wants a table or bench of about two metres or more; below that it will overhang.
Six sources along the length, not one
Six lamps at 5 W each spread along the bar. A single source in a 1.8-metre body would be bright in the middle and dim at both ends; six give even light across the whole span, which is the entire point of a linear pendant over a long table.
2,450 lumens, and it dims properly
30 W at 82 lm/W. That is enough to be a dining table’s main light, and it takes an ordinary TRIAC leading-edge wall dimmer — no remote, no app, no controller. So the same fitting does bright for homework and low for dinner, which is what a table actually needs.
How it compares to the Serda. Both are white-light linear pendants around 1.8 metres. The Serda is 1,840 mm, 46 W, 2,310 lm with three colour temperatures and touch dimming. The Fordo is 1,800 mm, 30 W, 2,450 lm, fixed at 3000 K with TRIAC dimming. So the Fordo is brighter on two-thirds of the power and dims from a normal wall switch; the Serda lets you change colour but you must reach the fitting to dim it. For a dining table, the Fordo is the more practical of the two.
3000 K, fixed — and correct for the job
No colour selection, warm white throughout, CRI above 80. Over a dining table warm is the right choice; a switchable fitting mostly gets left on one setting anyway.
4.2 kg over 1.8 metres, and it is Class I — earth required. The canopy is only 60 mm projecting 40 mm, so the whole load hangs from one small point. A licensed electrician installs it — show them the fixing before the day.
Aluminium, iron and polycarbonate
Aluminium doing the structure and shedding heat, with a polycarbonate diffuser running the full length — which is what gives an unbroken line of light rather than six visible LEDs. Polycarbonate rather than acrylic matters over that span: it does not yellow.
Where it works
- Dining tables and kitchen islands of two metres and up.
- Workbenches and studios wanting even light along a surface.
- Rooms needing one fitting for both task and evening light.
- ⚠ Below two metres of table it will overhang.
- ⚠ Indoor and dry locations only — IP20.

Questions
How long a table does it need?
About two metres or more — the fitting is 1,800 mm. Below that it will overhang.
Is it bright enough to be the main light?
Yes — 2,450 lm from 30 W, and it dims from an ordinary TRIAC wall dimmer, so the same fitting does bright for homework and low for dinner.
Fordo or Serda?
The Fordo is 1,800 mm, 30 W, 2,450 lm, fixed 3000 K with TRIAC dimming. The Serda is 1,840 mm, 46 W, 2,310 lm with three colour temperatures but touch dimming you have to reach. The Fordo is brighter on two-thirds of the power and dims from a normal wall switch — for a dining table it is the more practical.
Why six lamps?
Because a single source in a 1.8-metre body would be bright in the middle and dim at both ends. Six spread along the bar give even light across the whole span, which is the point of a linear pendant.
Will I see the individual LEDs?
No — a polycarbonate diffuser runs the full length, giving an unbroken line. Polycarbonate rather than acrylic matters over that span because it does not yellow.
How heavy is it?
4.2 kg over 1.8 metres, hanging from a 60 mm canopy — so the whole load is on one small point. Show your electrician the fixing before the day.
Can I change the colour temperature?
No — 3000 K warm white, fixed. Over a dining table warm is the right choice, and switchable fittings mostly get left on one setting anyway.
