Description
The Knightsbridge 5ft LED batten light delivers 5925 lumens of 4000K cool white light from an integrated 55W LED array housed in a pressed steel body with an opal polycarbonate diffuser. The 1525mm-long fitting is designed as a direct replacement for conventional fluorescent tube battens, offering the same mounting centres (600mm) and BESA box compatibility while eliminating tube replacement and ballast maintenance.
Designed for garages, workshops, storage rooms, utility areas, commercial corridors and retail back-of-house spaces, the batten mounts directly to ceilings or walls using rear and end conduit fixing points. The hinged gear tray opens for access to push-fit loop-in loop-out terminals, allowing multiple battens to be daisy-chained on a single circuit without junction boxes. The opal diffuser spreads light evenly across the 135-degree beam angle, reducing harsh shadows and glare on work surfaces.
The pressed steel body and polycarbonate diffuser combine for an IP20 rating suitable for dry internal environments. At 55W and 5925lm output, the batten achieves 147.49 lumens per watt efficacy, significantly higher than the fluorescent tubes it replaces. The non-dimmable constant-current driver is rated for 50,000 hours L70B50 lifespan, meaning the LED will maintain 70% of its original output after 50,000 hours of continuous use under typical conditions. The white powder-coated finish blends into standard ceiling finishes.

Frequently Asked
Can this replace a fluorescent tube batten?
Yes. The 1525mm length and 600mm fixing centres match standard 5ft fluorescent battens, and the mounting points are BESA box compatible. The integrated LED eliminates the need for tube replacement and offers significantly longer lifespan than fluorescent equivalents.
Is it suitable for use in a garage or workshop?
Yes, provided the space is dry and indoor. The IP20 rating means the batten is not protected against moisture or dust ingress, so it should not be used in damp garages, outdoor canopies or dusty industrial environments. For those applications, look for IP65-rated versions.
Can multiple battens be linked together?
Yes. The batten has push-fit loop-in loop-out terminals accessible via the hinged gear tray, allowing multiple units to be daisy-chained on a single circuit without external junction boxes. This simplifies installation in spaces needing multiple fittings.
What colour is the light output?
The 4000K colour temperature produces cool white light similar to daylight, which provides good colour rendering and visibility for task-based environments like workshops and storage areas. It is cooler than the warm white (2700K-3000K) typically used in living spaces.
