You could hang a floating light skirt much like I did and then install whatever you have into it. You don't see any of it if it hangs low enough. Then you have 4 or so wires.

S that the one fom your Solon I think it called?? If so I seen it many times in pictures and loved it , me and a friend were saying this morning that I I were to use a giant ring to hang the pendants from I may make some sort of "skirt" for it so it keeps the girlfriend happy, if anything from this build I do it needs to be approved by her, her rules lol

so if I were to do a light ring I was thinking I'll take the pendants apart I'll drill a hole and use bolts and washers/seals to join to the ring so I can take them apart for whatever reason

BEing as I have no clue about led's lol how could I mount some moonlights onto my ring??? Can I get little round led housings to join on or do they all come in made fixtures?? Any good led sites ???

I would like to add some strip lights in between my pendants who makes good strip lights?? Thanks guys

I would go with 4 pendants as well, moguls with big reflectors. Either 250w for most bulbs or the 175w Iwasaki bulbs...depends if you like the Iwasaki bulbs and if you want to save a bit of electricity.
