THOMAS MR16 / PAR 16 BATTEN

James Thomas Engineering MR16 lighting battens are fitted with 12v 50w MR16 tungsten halogen lamps, which are available in various beam options.

The battens are wired in series, in groups of 10 and in alternating positions along the batten. 

These can be supplied as floor standing or with hanging brackets and can be used vertically or horizontally. 

Colour frames and safety bonds included

Thomas Battens are available in two versions:

20 lamp batten - 2 circuit batten - 2 groups of 10 lamps alternating 1, 2, 1, 2,  and so on along the batten. 

30 lamp batten - 3 circuit batten - 3 groups of 10 lamps alternating 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, and so on along the batten. 

The battens are powered by using a special series power splitter, each splitter will power 2 circuits (2 x groups of 10 lamps) this can be a circuit of 10 lamps from one batten and a circuit of 10 lamps from another batten. 

If using two or more battens you can colour mix using coloured lighting gels, as in below examples.

The special series splitter is fitted with a 16A plug and can be used with a standard 240v socket or dimmer. 

We have adapters as required to 13A, 15A etc.

2 x 20 lamp battens, using 2 series splitters, each used to power one circuit of 10 lamps from each batten. This enables you to have 2 x mixable colours. (Lighting gels required) 

Example 2,

2 x 30 lamp battens, using 3 series splitter each used to power one circuit of 10 lamps from each batten. This enables you to have 3 mixable colours (Lighting gels required)
