Not sure I fully understand?

Fit them to your fitting with a 20mm locknut or lockring, or use the sheaper monkey-puzzle type.

Hang your fitting with jack-chain or gripples.

It depends what you want. With one job I wanted to be able to repair a florescent fitting without turning off all the other lights so I used these

plus a standard suspension hook jack chain and standard hook the other end. It meant I could unplug and take to workshop to repair and use a spare while being repaired so production did not stop.

In other areas I used three phase lighting track again with plug and socket. I had to fight with owner to get him to agree to lighting track. Two guys did whole of warehouse type building in a weekend with lighting track it would have taken a week or more with conduit to do the same so although track cost more than conduit the labour saving made it cheaper.

Years ago you could buy florescent fittings with a BA22d connector and they just hung off the ceiling rose but today I have failed to find any florescent fitting not requiring an earth except for things like 2D so since BA22d has no earth these simple ones have gone.

Still available from B&Q for £20.

Ideal if you have a 1960s kitchen and want to update it to the new fashionable 1970s look.

I wonder what that weighs.

Though I notice it's listed as "not available to buy oneline" and when I put my postcode in all the local stores listed it as either "low stock" or "no stock"

I also wonder how you would stop one swinging about all the time.

The B&Q stock checker is shocking.

It said low stock for garden gates. They had a dozen.
It said low stock for my wife's glue gun sticks. They had literally hundreds.

Could be worse.

It could say they have stock and you fetch up at the store to find they have none.
