{"product_id":"blackjack-float-48-linear-pendant","title":"Float 48 in Linear Pendant | Blackjack Lighting","description":"\u003cp\u003eFloat is a linear pendant in its most essential form: one long, thin bar of light hung level in the air. The body is a slim metal extrusion just 1.3 inches wide and 1.7 inches tall, running a little over four feet, with an acrylic diffuser along its whole underside. Two fine cables lift it to a narrow rectangular canopy, and from a few steps away the cables almost vanish, so the bar seems to hover over a table or island.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe integrated LED makes that slenderness possible. A continuous strip of LEDs runs the full length of the extrusion and the acrylic diffuser spreads it into one even line, with no spots, no sockets and no gaps; the driver lives up in the canopy rather than in the bar. The result is generous, high-quality ambient light from a remarkably small object. Polished Chrome gives the bar a bright, reflective edge; Satin Nickel softens it to a quiet brushed line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA line of light:\u003c\/strong\u003e a continuous LED strip behind a full-length acrylic diffuser, so the whole bar glows evenly from end to end.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThin proportions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48.1 in (123 cm) long but only 1.3 in (3.3 cm) wide and 1.7 in (4.3 cm) tall.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFloating suspension:\u003c\/strong\u003e two 96 in support cables to an 11 in canopy, which also houses the driver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSerious output:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2932 lumens from 39 W at 3000K with a 90+ CRI, enough to light a long table on its own.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo metal finishes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished Chrome for a crisp highlight, Satin Nickel for a softer, brushed look.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eBlackjack Lighting, Buffalo Grove, Illinois\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eFloat 48 in linear pendant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eSpec Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eFLT-48P-PC-12T-30K (Polished Chrome);

Trained in industrial design at Syracuse University, Blackman began his lighting career in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group, then founded Blackman Design Associates in 1988, designing decorative and architectural lighting for manufacturers including Kichler. He launched Blackjack in 2013 in suburban Chicago, now based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, to build fixtures conceived for LED from the first sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis argument is that the LED should change the shape of a light, not just its efficiency. Rather than hiding a new source inside old bulb-and-shade forms, Blackjack designs around the small, flat, cool-running LED: thin discs, slim rods, glowing rings and lenses that let the light itself become the object. In his own words, \"Decorative lighting by its nature is not primarily about optimizing lamp efficiency, it is primarily about decoration!\" Float is the slim-rod idea at its purest: a single four-foot line of light that seems to hang in mid-air.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat is the idea behind Float?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo reduce a linear pendant to a single thin line.
