Noben 42W LED Batten Light Colour Selectable IP54 - White

The Noben is a slimline LED batten light running at 42W from a 220 to 240V AC mains supply, putting out up to 4670 lumens through a wide 120° spread. American buyers shopping for an LED shop light or a wraparound fixture will recognise the format straight away: a long, low-profile linear fitting that washes a whole bay with even light rather than pooling it in spots. Colour temperature is selectable across 3000K warm white, 4000K neutral white and 6500K daylight, so the same fitting can read cosy or crisp depending on the task. Colour rendering sits at Ra 80, and the integrated LEDs are rated for 30,000 hours.

At 1500mm long it suits garages, workshops, utility rooms, store cupboards and covered carports where a clean, bright wash matters more than decorative shaping. At general lighting levels its output covers around 11 to 16 m², so a pair spaced along a single-car garage or a small workshop bench area keeps the whole footprint readable without dark corners. The IP54 rating means it copes with splashes and sheltered damp, making it a sound choice for a porch ceiling or a covered outdoor work spot, though it should be kept clear of fully exposed positions, direct water jets and any standing water. Mount it to either a wall or a ceiling depending on how the run needs to throw.

The body is moulded polycarbonate in a white finish, light at just 344g, which keeps the fixing simple on plasterboard or masonry. The IP54 sealing guards the diodes against dust ingress and splashing in working environments. This batten is not dimmable, so it is best paired with a standard switched circuit rather than a dimmer. It mounts flush to the surface via wall or ceiling brackets. Other wattages share the Noben range, so a workshop or garage run can mix lengths and outputs to match each zone.

Where is this batten typically used?

It is well suited to garages, workshops, utility rooms, store cupboards and car parks where even, practical light is the priority. The 1500mm length and 4670 lumen output cover a good working footprint. Its IP54 rating also allows use in covered, sheltered outdoor spots such as a porch ceiling.

Can this batten be used outdoors?

Only in sheltered positions. The IP54 rating handles dust and splashing, so a covered carport or porch is fine, but it should be kept out of fully exposed locations, direct water jets and standing water. For open outdoor use you would need a higher IP rating.

How do I select the colour temperature?

The fitting is colour selectable between 3000K warm white, 4000K neutral white and 6500K daylight. You set the tone you want during installation, which lets the same batten suit a cosy utility space or a crisp workshop. There is no need to buy separate fittings for each tone.

How do I clean the diffuser?

Switch the batten off and let it cool, then wipe the polycarbonate diffuser with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive pads and solvent cleaners, which can dull the surface over time. A regular wipe keeps the light output bright in dusty workshop or garage settings.
