Spiral and Hoop shape LED Pendants

Spiral and Hoop shape LED Pendants

Contemporary pendant lighting is increasingly defined by form as much as function. Linear rings, halos and spirals allow light to sit lightly within a space while still delivering strong ambient illumination. Now installed in our showroom are three dedicated LED pendants that exemplify this approach: SCH831642, LNO112A and LNO093A.

Each fitting uses integrated LED technology and fine suspension detailing to create a clean, architectural presence suitable for modern residential and commercial interiors.

 

Geneva Black LED Halo 1000mm

The Geneva is a bold halo pendant with a wide circular profile, suspended from fine cables to give the appearance of a floating ring. The integrated LED sits within the inner edge of the halo, providing an even, continuous light source around the full circumference.

Its scale makes it particularly effective in open spaces where a pendant needs to visually anchor the room without feeling heavy. The simple geometry allows it to sit comfortably above dining tables, meeting tables or within reception and living areas, while the slim profile keeps sightlines open.

Design notes:

·       

Large circular halo form

·       

Slim profile with integrated LED

·       

Suspended via fine tension cables for a floating effect

·       

Even, glare-controlled illumination around the ring

 

Swirl effect LED pendant light 5800lm

The LNO112A takes a more expressive approach, using a flowing spiral form to create movement within the space. The LED is fully integrated into the curved profile, resulting in a continuous line of light that follows the shape of the fitting.

This pendant functions as both a light source and a sculptural element. It is particularly effective in living spaces, stair voids or areas where the fitting can be viewed from multiple angles. The warm metallic finish softens the modern form, allowing it to work within both minimalist and more layered interiors.

Design notes:

·       

Dynamic spiral form with continuous LED line

·       

Integrated light source follows the curve of the fitting

·       

Creates visual movement and depth

·       

Best suited to feature positions rather than task lighting

 

Brushed gold & opal ribbed hoop LED pendant 3200lm

This modern brushed gold statement light offers a more restrained interpretation of the halo concept. A single, clean hoop is suspended horizontally, delivering a uniform band of diffused light. The simplicity of the design allows it to integrate easily into a wide range of interior schemes.

This fitting works particularly well when used in multiples over dining tables, kitchen islands or counters, where consistent, evenly distributed light is required without visual clutter.

 

Design notes:

·       

Clean hoop geometry

·       

Opal-diffused integrated LED

·       

Even light distribution with minimal glare

·       

Suitable for single or multiple installations

·       

Integrated LED and Suspension Detail

 

All three pendants use dedicated LED technology, allowing for slim profiles and uninterrupted light output. The suspension systems are deliberately minimal, ensuring the focus remains on the illuminated form rather than the fixing method.

 

From a practical perspective, integrated LED provides:

·       

Long service life

·       

Reduced maintenance

·       

Consistent colour and output

·       

Improved energy efficiency

From a design perspective, it allows the light source to become part of the form itself rather than an added component.

These pendants are now installed in our showroom, where their scale, light quality and presence can be properly assessed. Seeing these fittings in situ allows for a better understanding of how halo and spiral lighting interacts with surrounding architecture and furnishings.

Our team is available to advise on placement, sizing and suitability, whether for a single feature installation or as part of a wider lighting scheme.

Sync Energy Flow Stockists - The new way to power your home

 

What is the Sync Energy Flow Kit

The “Flow” line from Sync Energy is a modular Home Energy Management System (HEMS) — a combined hybrid inverter + battery storage solution designed for homes with (or planning) solar PV, or for anyone wanting to store energy (from grid or solar) for later use.

• The All-in-One kits bundle a hybrid inverter and one or more battery modules, giving a ready-to-install solution.
• For example, the SEF1A60G3 is the “6 kW inverter + 3 battery modules” version, meaning a stronger inverter paired with a larger battery storage capacity — a robust kit for a medium to high energy-demand home with solar or EV charging.

In short: this isn’t just a standalone solar inverter — it’s a full self-contained energy storage + management system, built with future-proofing, safety, and smart control in mind.

Key Features & What Makes Flow Kits Stand Out

Here’s what the Flow kits (especially the 6 kW + 3-battery version) offer:

• Hybrid Inverter + Modular Battery Storage

• The system combines inverter and batteries in one stackable unit — no need to separately source or wire inverter + storage.
• Battery modules are modular and scalable: you can expand storage later (up to ~ 35.84 kWh) as your needs grow.

• PV-ready (Solar-Ready) & Grid Compatible

• Even if you don’t install solar right away — the kit works in “battery storage + grid import/export” mode.
• If you have (or install) solar panels, the kit can integrate them — storing excess solar or powering your home directly, boosting self-consumption and reducing reliance on grid power.

• Smart Energy Management via App

• The system works with the dedicated Sync Energy App: you can monitor energy flow, storage levels, usage, and tariffs in real time.
• Features like “Tariff Sense” let you optimise when you draw or store energy (e.g. off-peak vs peak), which helps reduce electricity bills.
• If you have an EV, the system supports smart EV charging — using excess solar or cheap tariff energy when available.

• Safety, Durability and Flexibility

• Batteries use LiFePO₄ technology, known for safety, stability, and long life.
• 90% Depth of Discharge (DoD) and long cycle life — meaning you can use most of the battery capacity without severely affecting lifespan.
• Built for indoor or outdoor use: robust (weatherproof/rated), stackable, and designed for clean, professional installation (hidden handles, plug-and-play connectors, adjustable base, neat wiring area).
• Scalable design: start modest, expand later — a big plus if you might add solar panels or EV charging in future.

• Flexibility: Retrofit or New Build, With or Without Solar

• Works well both in new builds and retrofit settings — so you don’t need to be building a new home to adopt it.
• Even without solar panels, you can use it to store cheap off-peak grid electricity and draw it during peak times.

Why It Matters — Who It’s For & What it Enables

Using a kit like the Flow system (6 kW + 3 battery modules) gives you significant control and future-proofing:

• Homes with solar PV — Overcoming the classic “wasted surplus” problem: whenever your panels generate more than immediate demand, excess power can be stored rather than exported or wasted.
• Homes with EV charging — With smart control and storage, you can charge your EV during the cheapest or greenest times (cheap grid energy or surplus solar), reducing bills and carbon footprint.
• Retrofits or older homes — Even without solar, you can start storing cheaper off-peak grid electricity — ideal in regions with variable tariffs.
• Homes concerned about energy security or rising prices — Battery + storage gives a buffer against outages, tariff spikes, and grid instability.
• People thinking long-term / sustainable living — As energy use becomes more complex (solar, EV, demand scheduling), having a single unified management system avoids complexity and ensures everything works together.

In short, this kit isn’t just about saving money or going “green” — it’s about giving your home energy autonomy, flexibility, and resilience.

Potential Considerations / What to Evaluate Before Buying

While Flow kits are strong, there are a few things you should think through:

• Initial cost & scale — A full 6 kW + 3-battery kit is a substantial investment, so it’s more suited to households with medium-to-high energy use (solar + EV + general consumption) rather than minimal usage.
• Installation requirements — Though plug-and-play, you’ll need proper installation (ideally a certified installer), especially if integrating with solar panels or EV chargers.
• Future expansion vs current needs — The modularity means you could “over-buy” capacity if your energy needs are modest. If you don’t use much energy (or won’t in future), a smaller kit may suffice.
• Space & placement — The system has physical size (batteries + inverter stack) and potentially needs a neat, ventilated, safe installation space (ideally indoors or covered, per IP ratings).
• Return on investment depends on energy patterns — If you don’t generate surplus solar or use off-peak energy much, savings may be lower; benefit increases with high usage, solar generation, EV charging, or flexible energy consumption.

Who Should Consider Sync Energy Flow — And Why It’s a Smart Buy

If you fit one or more of these, the Flow 6 kW + 3-battery kit is likely a very good fit:

• You have (or plan to install) solar PV panels and want to maximise self-consumption and storage.
• You have (or plan) to charge an EV at home and want to optimise charging costs and emissions.
• You want to future-proof your home: modular battery capacity, app-based control, and scalability makes this a long-term solution.
• You want energy resilience — to store surplus energy, handle tariff fluctuations, or get partial backup.
• You aim for sustainable, efficient energy usage — reducing grid dependence, using clean energy, and managing household power intelligently.

Final Thoughts — The Flow System as a Path to Smarter, Greener Homes

The Sync Energy Flow kits — especially the “All-In-One 6 kW + 3 Battery” version — represent a thoughtful, future-ready approach to home energy. They’re not simply “solar add-ons” or “batteries.” They are full home-energy ecosystems that combine storage, smart control, solar readiness, and scalable design.

In a time of rising energy costs, growing environmental awareness, and increasing demand for home EV charging or self-consumption, a system like this lets you take control. Whether you begin modestly or go full-scale, Flow gives flexibility, control, and a clear upgrade path — something many older or static energy setups can’t match.
