Browse Forums Lighting + Lighting Design 1 Jul 26, 2010 3:39 pm Hi, I'm thinking of getting some simple batten fix lights that have an alabaster glass 'shade' (eg http://www.onlinelighting.com.au/produc ... ts_id=8404 ) and I'm wondering whether the alabaster glass is going to mean I either have less light filtering through, or that I'm going to need a higher wattage globe. Has anyone got anything similar, and how do you find the light source? Re: Lights with Alabaster Glass 2Jul 27, 2010 11:47 am Hi Sweetime I have exactly the same light in my hallway and entry and am very happy with the light output. Like most baten-fix lights they are only rated to 60Wmax incandescent lamp. I tried some compact fluoro lamps in them as well but they were physically larger and protruded out the bottom of the shade - but it still looked OK to me and gave a good light output. Whether it is enough light for you will depend on the size of the room. Cheers So I'm just reading up on this ecosystem of lights. I'm planning on putting deck lights along the outside edge of a large deck. Will need about 3 packs (18 lights) plus… 0 21547 Need to remove glass panel out of concrete without wrecking the glass to get the spa room in, any recommendations on how to do that.
