Batten lights are an electrical fitting containing a tube lamp to provide an artificial light and can be fitted to the ceiling or a wall. Ensuring a workplace has adequate illumination is essential for employee health and safety. Substandard or insufficient lighting can lead to various complaints including eye-strain, headaches and fatigue and can result in quality issues, low productivity and sometimes accidents can occur.

### What batten light is best for me?

There are various types of batten fixture available, choosing the best one for an installation depends on a few key factors.

- Natural light: Make the best use of existing natural light. Ensure that all windows and skylights are kept clean to allow as much natural light is utilised.
- Application: Make sure that the correct type of ceiling lighting is installed for the job at hand. An office environment requires different lighting to a clothing factory containing sewing machines and fabric matching tables.
- Positioning: Care must be taken when installing ceiling lighting. The correct positioning of lighting ensures that employees can safely carry out their daily tasks and not put themselves under any unnecessary strains.
- Environment: Must your batten light be Anti-corrosive or IP44 rated or above.

Whether you are installing office lighting, garage lighting, LED or fluorescent, industrial batten lights are the most likely. Some additional points to consider are;

### Mounting type
- Recessed or flush light: Enables the lamp to be mounted flush into the ceiling.
- Surface mount: A simple way of fixing single or twin batten fluorescent or LED fixtures to the ceiling.
- Pendant: A type of fitting that suspends the lamp a short distance from the ceiling.
- Dimmable: Must the lighting be dimmable? If so, extra ballasts and switching components must be used.
- Diffusers: Used to spread and soften the light.

### Colour Temperature

Colour temperature refers to a scale that measures the type of colour or hue that a lamp emits. The colour temperature scale is measured in Kelvins (K). The higher the K number, the cooler the lamp. The lower the K number, the warmer the lamp.

- 2500K Extra warm white
- 2700K Warm white
- 3000K Warm white / White
- 3500K White
- 4000K Cool white
- 6500K Daylight

<p>Batten lighting usually involves bar or box enclosures being suspended high overhead, forming a robust housing that's often most associated with tube lights - indeed, ceiling batten lighting was almost synonymous with the use of fluorescent strips for decades in most types of public and industrial spaces.</p><p>With the advancements in modern lighting technologies, however, more economical and hardwearing LED battens are rapidly becoming far more popular and widespread in many areas today.</p><h2>What are the benefits of LED battens over traditional fluorescent tube fittings?</h2><ul><li>LED battens run at far lower temperatures. Not only is this safer for anyone who might come into direct physical contact with batten enclosures, it also makes LED battens vastly more economical</li><li>More than 90% of the energy an LED batten light consumes will converted directly to light output, and not wasted as unwanted heat</li><li>LED battens are instant-on. Anyone who has spent any time around traditional fluorescent tube strips will be very familiar with their annoying tendency to flicker and blink for several seconds while trying to warm themselves up to full power</li><li>This is one reason why standard tube battens are fairly useless in motion sensor/PIR applications, and most other types of security lighting. LEDs can instantly emit their full brightness when powered, making LED batten lights a great option for security and motion-triggered lights</li><li>LED battens can emit highly directional light, not just flooding. LEDs are mounted in batten fixtures such that they focus all their light output at precisely the area you want to illuminate (i.e. the ground directly beneath them).</li><li>With standard tube lights, their output is scattered at 360 degrees all around the circumference of the tube (which is why you often see them using built-in reflectors) - any light fired up towards the ceiling is essentially wasted energy, and thus money</li></ul><p>LED batten lighting tends to be the preferred method of ceiling light installation in many modern industrial or high-traffic public areas, due to its handy utilitarian combination of convenience, ruggedness, economy and safety.</p>
