I'm not sure why anyone even tried to invent a new pendant light after the PH5. ;)

It is a great design.

I found it when looking for a lamp that doesn't expose the bulb itself, which is exactly what it was designed for.

How does it fare with modern LED bulbs? I imagine the placement of the reflectors assumes an almost-point source of light like a filament would provide, but most LED bulbs now have a plane of LEDs inside a frosted shell.

I guess would it make a noticeable difference to put an LED faux filament bulb in here? Or is it just not as fussy as I'm imagining?

		I use a frosted LED bulb and don't see any reason it would work better with an incandescent bulb, i.e. it works great.
