Sputnik Multi-Arm — Sizes, Bulb Choice & Honest Limits
Each size adds more arms and light output: the S (12 arms) suits a dining room or living room of standard size; the M (16 arms) and L (18 arms) work well in larger open-plan spaces or rooms where maximum visual impact is the goal; the XL (20 arms) is a statement piece for double-height spaces, large lofts, or commercial settings. Note that each size comes with a fixed colour temperature — S and XL at neutral 4500K, M at cool 6000K, L at warm 3500K — so choose your size based on both the number of arms and the light quality you want. Each arm takes a standard E27 bulb (not included); filament LED bulbs at the matching colour temperature will complement the industrial aesthetic and keep the exposed-bulb look. The total wattage depends on the bulbs you choose — check that your ceiling rose and wiring can support the combined load before installation. The fitting is not dimmable and is rated IP20 — indoor dry areas only. At this scale, professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure correct ceiling support and cable management.
Position the lowest point of the fitting at least 210 cm from the floor. Over a large dining table, aim for the base at 80–90 cm above the surface. The black metal structure pairs naturally with concrete, dark wood, exposed brick, and leather — materials that reinforce the loft-industrial aesthetic.

Common Questions
Does this pendant need an electrician to install?
+
Yes — it is a hardwired fitting that connects directly to your mains supply. At this size and with multiple E27 sockets, professional installation is strongly recommended to ensure correct ceiling support, wiring capacity, and cable management.
Which size should I choose?
+
The S (12 arms) suits standard dining rooms and living rooms. The M (16 arms) and L (18 arms) work well in larger open-plan spaces. The XL (20 arms) is best for double-height spaces, large lofts, or commercial settings. Note that each size has a fixed colour temperature — choose based on both arm count and light quality.
What bulbs should I use?
+
Each arm takes a standard E27 bulb (not included). Filament LED bulbs at the colour temperature matching your chosen size will complement the industrial aesthetic. Keep individual bulb wattage low — with 12 to 20 sockets, the total load adds up quickly. Check the maximum wattage rating on the fitting before selecting bulbs.
What ceiling height do I need?
+
Position the lowest point of the fitting at least 210 cm from the floor. For larger sizes (L and XL), a ceiling height of at least 2.8–3 m is recommended to allow the fitting to hang at a comfortable and visually proportionate level.
Can I use this pendant in a bathroom or outdoors?
+
No — this fitting is rated IP20, suitable for dry indoor areas only. It must not be installed in bathrooms, above sinks, or in any outdoor location.
