Installation Note
The Tense Pendant is crafted from lightweight Tyvek and may move or swing when exposed to air currents. The shade attaches to the power cord via a strong magnet — strong drafts may cause the magnet to detach. Position in a controlled environment free from excessive airflow. Indoor use only.
Replacing the LED
Disconnect the magnets holding the LED bulb. Open the shade on the side, carefully remove the LED bulb, and replace. Reattach the magnets to secure.
Materials
Shade: Tyvek membrane (100% recyclable), tightened with carbon rods. Cord: Black PVC.
Wrinkles are a natural part of the fabric and give each lamp unique character. They typically smooth out after 6–8 weeks of hanging. Tightening the velcro band helps even out wrinkles sooner.
