Description
The Sermessa is a two-light tri-proof batten: a long, slim grey plastic housing with a clear plastic diffuser held in place by clips along its length. It measures 155.8cm long, 9.9cm wide and 5.6cm high, so it sits close to a ceiling or wall. It takes G13 lamps and gives 5,200 lumens at 4000K, a cool, neutral light that suits practical work. Its IP65 rating means it is sealed against dust and protected from jets of water, so it is as much at home outdoors as it is indoors.
That rating opens up the places where an ordinary indoor light would not belong: a garage, a workshop, a utility room, a cellar, a garden shed, a carport or the wall beside a back door. With 5,200 lumens from one long fitting, it gives plenty of light for jobs like fixing a bike, sorting laundry or finding the right tool on a crowded shelf. It can also be suggested for a bathroom, and a qualified electrician will confirm the right zone. It suits anyone fitting out a garage, a hobby room or an outbuilding who wants one practical, low-fuss light rather than a decorative one.
The body and the diffuser are both plastic, and plastic does not rust, which counts in a damp outbuilding. The LED lamps can be replaced by the user, and there is no separate driver. There is no switch on the batten itself; it is switched at the wall and runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz. It carries energy class E and weighs 1.3KG, so it is easy to lift into place. This is a mains fitting, so a qualified electrician should install it. To keep the light at its best, wipe the clear diffuser over with a damp cloth from time to time, as dust and cobwebs gather on any garage light.
