Does anyone know of a source of cheap batten fittings... I used to get cheap fluorescent ones but they all seem to be LED ones which are a trifle overkill just for a loft... with like 30 mins per year usage !
 
If i need one at very short notice then the LAP ones in screwfix arent too bad, some LAP stuff is awful but they do come with a 3 year warranty i believe now.
otherwise, pop in your local wholesalers and see what they have, I got a really good price recently on 2 fittings as another spark had returned them.
 
Electric Centre do a budget range, I have used them and have some in my garage they are pretty good.
 
I just use 5 foot single fluorescent fittings as left lights. 15 quid from CEF. Never seen the pojntnin LEDs in attics myself, as you said, only on half an hour a year sometimes.
 
I have used the cheap LAP ones from screwfix two four foot fitting about £20 each. Really easy to fit with push fit terminal. Don't look great but they do the job and are ideal for the loft.
