Eyeball Fittings for loft, how many?

[morphe]

Loft is being done on monday and we have to decide how many lights we need, I have chosen the eyeball fittings as they swivel.
The loft is roughly 16ft L x 15ft w, not forgetting that the walls will be slanting as we are not having a dorma.

PS were would be the best place for them to go? (we thought along the top at the highest point.

These are the lights I have seen

I would go for the 230v lights unless the loft is being used as a bathroom.

There's less to go wrong

would you recommend 40, 60 or 100 watt.

they dont make halogen eye ball lamps with 60 or 100w lamps

eyeball lamps they do, but they need even more clearance
