    Hey guys, I bought this pendant light used and it's in good shape. I would like to switch the bulb but I can't seem to find the way to remove the old one. Does anyone have this particular model? if so, how do you get to the actual bulb? I tried prying off the bottom but I'm afraid to break the glass, it seems to shift a bit but it doesn't budge.. Also how is your particular experience with this fixture? I noticed that it radiates a good amount of heat.

    Link below is the pic of my model:

    I believe the bulb is spring loaded so you push the bulb to one side and then angle it down for removal. If it doesn't go one direction it will go the other.

    Yes it is, but I haven't even been able to get that far... I want to know how to get to the bulb. There are no screws or anything and I tried to get some info online and I been unsuccessful.
