Here is one option. Took two minutes.

It actually takes more then two minutes, first you got to drag your ass out of the house to the hardware store, wait in lines drive in stupid traffic before proceeding.... now once back onsite you have to find electricians pliers for it can cut the cable and crimp the aluminum clamps.
After purchasing the items I noticed looking at my recent and I'll be dammed if I didn't get over charged with two items on my recent for 4 bucks I didn't even buy... wow... someone is going to have to look at the tape.
So then thinking more on this I notice damn, I have two lights to do this work for and it is a pain in the ass to cut cable and clamp on swivel hooks and expensive too.... so I decided hell with it, that cost close to $30 in materials not to mention time and gas spent. I am returning my packed up the swivels the smaller ones from lowes and also addressed being charged 4 bucks for crap I didn't buy and with the return of the 4 swivels I got their that should be about 12 back in my pocket, Then another I will return the larger ones from Ace Hardware for another 8 bucks, so I should get $20 back in my pocket. Less time gas and a few bucks for /16 galvanized cable and cable ferrule (clamps) I've learned the way Capt Morgan used the rope ratchets connecting them to the the four post on the led panels with carribener in the middle to attach to ceiling is best route to go.
Except for in starting to create the leader cables I opted to to tie two post each together using the galvanized cable and securing each end of the cable to one post each using the clamps to bind the loop so they would remained secure and hold the weight of the light. For I will attach one of the rope ratchet carribener to these two post connection wires for each side and attach the remaining one to the eye post I have secured in the wood rafting above. From what I can till the cable wire is much more sturdy in holding an angled position of the panel verses using the ratchet rope which seems to give more and not hold steady if you want to position panels. I can get the same flexibility as I had with the Onyx Bloom suspension system.
Here is picture of the hardware for one set, except for the swivels both different sets shown..
Here below is my take on using the wire leaders minus connection swivel, for they are secured onto post and help act as stabilizer on the carribener when tilting the panel and provide a nice easy disconnect from the screw eye above or simple to release off the wire to swap out another panel in the event of failure without having to disconnects for panel post.
See the difference not to mention the less tension on ratchet rope easier to raise and lower panel.
DankSwag....
Hope to see these post come connected in the future with my guide wire idea, beats freaking around with swivel clips and multiple post connections.
