18W LED batten light in white, open-beam, daylight

Overview of the Ritos 18W T8 Light Strip, 61 cm, Open-Style in White

The Ritos T8 Light Strip with 18 W is a compact, open-style lighting solution for kitchens, workshops, basements, offices, hallways, and other dry indoor areas. The light is supplied with a T8 fluorescent tube with a G13 base and has a total length of approx. 61 cm.

The included bulb produces a luminous flux of 1,210 lumens and daylight-white light with a color temperature of 6,400 Kelvin. This makes the light strip particularly suitable for functional areas where bright and clear light is desired.

Open-style light strip for workspaces

This light is an open-style T8 light strip. The bulb is exposed within the fixture and is not enclosed by a closed diffuser cover.

This classic design is suitable for workshops, basements, hobby rooms, or other workspaces, for example. The model can also be used as an additional light strip for kitchens and work surfaces.

1,210 lumens and daylight with 6,400 Kelvin

According to Saasil, the included fluorescent tube reaches a luminous flux of 1,210 lumens. With a color temperature of 6,400 Kelvin, it produces daylight-white or cool-white light.

This light color has a clear and objective effect and is particularly suitable for functional lighting tasks. This makes the light ideal, for example, as workstation lighting with daylight for workshops, offices, or hobby rooms.

T8 fluorescent tube with G13 base

The light strip is supplied with a T8 fluorescent tube with a G13 base. The bulb has an output of 18 W, a length of approx. 59.5 cm, and a diameter of approx. 26 mm.

Since the tube is not permanently integrated into the fixture, it can be replaced if necessary with a technically compatible T8 bulb with a matching G13 base and suitable dimensions.

Compact 61 cm light strip in white

According to Saasil, the light strip has dimensions of approx. 610 × 56 × 28 mm. This makes it suitable even for smaller mounting surfaces where a long 120 or 150 cm light strip is not required.

The housing is made of acrylic and aluminum and is finished in white. Thanks to its simple design, the light can be easily integrated into various functional interior areas.

Also usable as under-cabinet and furniture lighting

Due to its compact length, the light strip can also be used for additional lighting under suitable cabinets, shelves, or furniture areas. This makes it suitable, for example, as a T8 under-cabinet light (60 cm) for work and storage surfaces.

The directional light distribution focuses the light on the desired area and can supplement existing room lighting.

Without integrated switch

According to Saasil, the light strip does not have an integrated on/off switch. When planning the installation, a suitable external switching option should therefore be provided or the existing electrical installation should be taken into account.

The operating voltage of the light is 230 V.
