Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is electrical installation required for this light shade?
No, this product is a shade only and is designed for easy installation onto your existing BC B22 light socket. No electrical wiring is required.
What is included with the MiniSun Pendant Drum Light Shade?
The package includes one MiniSun Pendant Drum Light Shade (Black) and one 10W BC B22 GLS LED bulb, which provides light output equivalent to a 100W incandescent bulb.
What items are NOT included?
The ceiling rose and flex (the electrical cable and ceiling mount) are NOT included. You will need to attach this shade to your existing electrical fitting.
What are the dimensions of the light shade?
The shade has a height of 330mm and a diameter of 450mm.
What type of light bulb does it use?
It uses a BC B22 (Bayonet Cap) bulb. A 10W BC B22 GLS LED bulb is included with your purchase.
How do I clean the light shade?
To clean the shade, ensure the power is off, then gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Can I use a different bulb than the one provided?
Yes, you can use any BC B22 bulb that fits the shade, as long as it adheres to the maximum wattage rating of your existing light fitting to prevent overheating. However, the included 10W LED bulb offers excellent energy efficiency and brightness.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on after installation.
First, ensure the power is switched on at the main circuit breaker. Check that the bulb is screwed in firmly and correctly. Verify your existing ceiling rose and flex are functioning correctly by testing with another known-working bulb if possible.
Shade feels loose or wobbles after installation.
Ensure the shade is correctly seated and secured to your existing light fitting. Some fittings use a shade ring that needs to be tightened to hold the shade in place. If unsure, carefully re-read the installation instructions for your specific existing fitting.
Light output seems too dim, despite using the included bulb.
While the included 10W LED bulb provides 100W equivalent light, ensure your room size and desired brightness are suitable for this output. Check if the bulb is clean and clear of any obstructions. If the issue persists, the problem might be with the existing electrical circuit rather than the shade or bulb.
The shade does not fit my existing light fixture.
This shade is designed to fit standard BC B22 (Bayonet Cap) light sockets. Please verify that your existing fixture is compatible with this fitting type. If not, this shade may not be suitable for your current setup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup Instructions
- Ensure Safety: Always turn off the power to your existing light fitting at the main circuit breaker before starting any installation.
- Unpack Components: Carefully unpack the MiniSun Pendant Drum Light Shade and the included bulb.
- Locate Existing Fitting: Identify your existing light socket on the ceiling flex. This shade is designed for BC B22 (Bayonet Cap) type fittings.
- Attach the Shade: Carefully align the shade with your existing light socket. Most fittings require securing the shade with a shade ring that screws into place or by twisting the shade until it's firmly seated. Ensure it feels secure and stable.
- Install the Bulb: Screw the included 10W BC B22 GLS LED bulb into the light socket until snug. Avoid overtightening.
- Restore Power: Once the shade and bulb are securely in place, restore power at the main circuit breaker.
- Test: Turn on your light switch to enjoy your newly updated lighting.
Compatibility
This shade is compatible with standard BC B22 (Bayonet Cap) light sockets and requires an existing ceiling rose and flex setup. It is designed to be an easy replacement for existing pendant light shades.
Care Instructions
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your light shade:
- Cleaning: Ensure the power is off before cleaning. Gently wipe the shade with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive materials, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the finish or materials.
- Bulb Replacement: When replacing the bulb (after its lifespan), always ensure the power is off. Use a BC B22 bulb that fits the shade and adheres to your existing light fitting's maximum wattage recommendation.
