ABSTRACT:
A lighting fixture which may be installed under a shelf or cabinet positioned above a working area or positioned above any area in which illumination is sought. The lighting fixture is capable of easily and effectively directing the light to specific locations within the working area. A florescent tube is disposed along the length of the fixture. It has a reflector located above it. Below the florescent tube there is an elongated perforated metal panel covering approximately one-third of the light opening below the tube. The panel may be moved transverse to the length of the tube along the opening to direct the light from the tube. The panel is preferably formed of one fixed and one identical overlapping, movable, perforated metal panel. The movable panel may be moved parallel to the length of the tube to control the amount of light passing through the panels. The fixture is provided with cord storage in the middle of the back of the fixture. The ballast is mounted via a closed cell foam pad. Key slot screw holes are located in the top of the fixture. The narrow portions of the slots are dimpled upwardly to capture mounting screw heads which are held in place by one or more resilient pads on top of the fixture.
