Upgrade your interior lighting with the OSRAM NOVA LED T5 Batten, a premium 4ft (1185mm) linear luminaire that combines German-engineered reliability with modern energy efficiency. Specifically designed for the Malaysian climate and electrical standards (220-240V), this 13W batten is a direct, superior replacement for traditional fluorescent T5 tubes.
Unmatched Luminous Performance
