The Searchlight Meteor 12013-1NI is a modern LED pendant light in a black nickel finish with decorative acrylic detailing. Its compact, rounded design makes it particularly suitable for kitchen islands, breakfast bars, bedside lighting and contemporary living spaces. Measuring 10 cm wide, the pendant offers a distinctive decorative feature without taking up too much visual space. An adjustable suspension, with a maximum overall height of 180 cm, provides flexibility when positioning the light above furniture or worktops. The integrated 7W LED offers three selectable colour temperatures, allowing you to choose between warm white and neutral white lighting. Dimmable operation adds further flexibility, making Meteor a practical option for both decorative and functional indoor lighting.
The Meteor pendant combines a rounded metal body with a black nickel finish and acrylic detailing. Its contemporary design features a compact, globe-inspired form with decorative horizontal bands around the shade.
The acrylic elements form part of the illuminated design, while the integrated LED provides a concentrated downward light output. The combination of a dark metallic finish and illuminated detailing creates a decorative contrast when the fitting is switched on.
A slim suspension cable connects the pendant to its matching ceiling fitting, keeping the overall appearance neat and understated. The 10 cm width makes it suitable for individual installations or arrangements using several pendants.
Meteor includes a built-in 7W LED light source, so no separate bulb is required. The integrated LED provides downward illumination, with additional light visible through the decorative acrylic detailing.
A selectable colour temperature function provides three lighting options:
- 2700K Warm White - a warmer light suited to relaxed residential settings.
- 3000K Warm White - a balanced warm light suitable for everyday use.
- 4000K Neutral White - a clearer, more neutral light suitable for task-oriented areas.
The colour temperature is selected using a switch inside the ceiling fitting during installation. It is not a colour-changing function controlled by the ordinary wall switch.
The manufacturer confirms that Meteor is dimmable, providing additional control over light intensity when used with a compatible dimming arrangement.
Its adjustable suspension allows the light to be positioned at an appropriate height above a kitchen counter, breakfast bar or bedside table. The maximum overall height is 180 cm.
As a single pendant, Meteor provides a defined area of illumination rather than the broad coverage of a multi-light ceiling fitting. Several pendants can be installed separately where a longer surface requires lighting from multiple points.
- Kitchen islands - individual pendants or multiple fittings arranged along a worktop.
- Breakfast bars - compact suspended lighting above seating areas.
- Bedside lighting - a ceiling-mounted alternative to traditional bedside lamps.
- Dining areas - decorative accent lighting above smaller tables.
- Modern living rooms - supplementary lighting in seating areas or corners.
- Contemporary interiors - particularly spaces featuring black, grey or metallic finishes.
- Hospitality interiors - decorative lighting above counters or individual seating areas in dry indoor locations.
- Integrated 7W LED - provides illumination without requiring a separate replaceable bulb.
- Three colour temperatures - choose between 2700K, 3000K and 4000K to suit the intended application.
- Dimmable operation - offers control over light intensity with compatible dimming equipment.
- Black nickel finish - adds a dark metallic detail to contemporary interiors.
- Metal and acrylic construction - combines a decorative outer body with illuminated acrylic elements.
- Adjustable suspension - allows the hanging height to be set during installation.
- Compact 10 cm width - suitable for smaller spaces and multiple-pendant arrangements.
- IP20 rating - intended for dry indoor environments.

Understanding LED colour temperature and the Kelvin scale
Colour temperature 2000K to 3000K, the light produced is often referred to as a "warm white", "soft white", occasionally called a "candle white". It ranges from orange-ish to yellow-ish white in appearance. This kind of light is attractive, enjoyable, comfortable and relaxing.
Colour temperature 3100K to 4500K, the light produced is often referred to as a "neutral white", "bright white" or "natural white". Light sources within this range will emit a more neutral white light and may even have a slightly blue tint. This kind of light is bright, vibrant and clean appearing.

Colour temperature 4600K and above, the light produced is often referred to as a "cool white", "pure white" or "day white". Light sources in this range will have a blue-ish white tint to them. The higher the number, the more blueish it will appear. This kind of light will appear crisp, invigorating and energetic.
