So - go for 2ft tubes then.....

I've never done this 'lighs on top of the wall units' thing before -
presumably the best way to determine 'how many' tubes is to actually try
it & see ?
Probably looks better if all wall-units have illumination above them ...?

Thanks

===============================
Homebase had some 3' fittings yesterday so they might be worth looking at.

Cic.


Thanks for the suggestion. Never heard of 3ft fittings before - you
live & learn g

I'd be a bit wary of finding that, having bought them, you couldn't
get replacement tubes easily.....

Being 'out in the sticks' here in S-W Ireland, it's a 2 hour drive to
the nearest Homebase - so I'll try the specialist lighting shop in the
next town. Who knows - they might even be clued up on different
'colours' of tubes !

Many thanks
Adrian
