how to lengthen pendent light cord ?
Home depot sells a can light converter to pendent light. It screws in the bulb receptacle and has a cover that slides up the cord to hide the old canned light fixture. But it only comes in 48 inch cord and we need about 70 inch because of the high ceiling. Does anyone know how I can make the cord longer? The cord is sealed into both ends.
I will try to post a pic of the light.

Just for grins, how high is the ceiling? You say you need a 6 foot cord and typical mounting is normally 30 inches above a table or countertop. That makes it 5-6 foot above the floor.

Also, I should have mentioned that this is a cathedral ceiling with no way to access the attic where the light is. That is why I would like this very simple to install light.

Here are two examples. Other, similar devices may also be available:
