ABSTRACT:
The outdoor lighting fixture is for attachment to a building structure and the like and includes an elongated shade for mounting along the building structure in an overhanging, cantilever relationship and the shade is folded to form a downwardly sloped section, and then folded again to form a vertical section which is parallel to and spaced from the building side surface. A series of lamp sockets are mounted to the lower surface of the shade adjacent the upper fold and elongated tubular fluorescent lamps are supported by the plugs. An elongated electrical wire housing is mounted to the lower surface of the shade immediately adjacent the sockets and functions to support the electrical wires of the light fixture and to rigidify the shade, and a plurality of elongated support braces extend from the edge of the shade which is attached to the building out to the fold at the sloped section and are rigidly attached to the shade for rigidifying the shade. The fluorescent lamps are insulated with external concentric protective tubes, and the ballasts for the lamps are centrally located in an insulated ballast box on the roof of the building structure.
