Crossy Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Help!! I'm looking for some flex for my pendant light fittings. We have very high ceilings (>5m), the flex dropper that comes with the fittings will leave them as a hazard to low flying aircraft so I need to fit longer droppers. The flex in question is 2 x 0.75mm2 round (about 5mm in diameter) and is gold in colour. We need about 35m for all our droppers. Anyone seen something like this around BKK? It's not absolutely essential that it's gold in colour but that would be best match to the fittings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevjohn Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Crossy A man of your means should be able to buy any colour and have it gold plated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David006 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 lol....good quality speaker wire is translucent gold usually...could always sleeve it with nice white conduit, aluminum tube, shrink wrap or spiral consolidation stuff? IKEA used to sell nice lighting cable extension cords......lol hard to believe a sparky cannot source something suitable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bankruatsteve Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 If you can't find the flex you might check out some tubing (or maybe even harder to find?) Then spray paint. And assuming you don't need much more than drill holes to hook up. Albeit the speaker wire sounds like it might be the simplest way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundman Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 See if you can find some light grey outer sheath VCT 2x0.75mm Flex. and a can of Hato gold spray paint. Looks quite realistic and as long as there is no movement - no scratches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
