On the first day of creation, God said, “Let there be light”. But that in turn created a problem because, you see, he didn’t specify what kind of light there was supposed to be. Did he mean your regular incandescent bulbs? He couldn’t have, because those guzzle an alarming amount of electricity and lead to horrible side effects such as the slaughter of baby seals and deforestation of rainforests. Did he mean the relatively more benign fluorescent lights then? I don’t think so, because these lights emit ultraviolet radiation. I believe we can all agree that the benevolent god above sure as hell wouldn’t want you to contract skin ailments or, worse yet, cancer.

What’s more, installing the Orient LED Batten is as easy as screwing in a pair of invisible clamps that safely and securely hold the lightweight fixture.
