The Crazy holders are round lamp holders with a white, dome-shaped body and a red ring around the lamp opening — a neater, more modern look than a plain batten holder for bedrooms, halls, passages, shops and offices.
This is the batten version: it fixes flat on a ceiling or wall with the bulb pointing straight out. Inside is a brass bayonet sleeve with spring-loaded contacts for pin-type (B22) bulbs. For a bulb tilted down from a wall, choose the matching Crazy angle holder.
Where to use it
- Ceiling bulb points in bedrooms, halls and passages.
- Shops, offices and showrooms that want a neater bulb point.
- Staircases, landings and store rooms.
- Upgrading old batten holders.
How to install
- Switch off the lighting circuit at the MCB and check that the point is dead.
- Open the holder and bring the switched phase and the neutral wires in through the base.
- Connect them to the two terminals and screw the base to the ceiling, wall or round sheet.
- Close the holder and fit the bulb.
Electrical work should be done by a licensed electrician with the supply switched off. Indoor use only — not for open, wet or outdoor locations.
Frequently asked questions
- What is a Crazy batten holder?
- A round, dome-shaped batten holder with a red ring around the lamp opening. It does the same job as a plain batten holder — a fixed bulb point on a ceiling or wall — with a neater look.
- Crazy batten holder or Crazy angle holder?
- The batten holder points the bulb straight out, which suits ceilings. The angle holder tilts the bulb downwards, which suits walls, mirrors and passages.
- Which bulbs fit this holder?
- Pin-type bayonet (B22) bulbs — the cap used by most household LED bulbs in India. Screw-type (E27) bulbs need a screw-type holder.
- What are the slots in the dome for?
- They are ventilation slots that let warm air escape from around the lamp cap.
- How is it wired?
- Connect the switched phase and the neutral to the two terminals. The switch must always be in the phase wire, so the holder is dead when the switch is off.
- Can I use it in a bathroom or outdoors?
- It is an open holder for indoor, dry places. In bathrooms, open verandahs and outdoor points, use an enclosed fitting made for damp or wet locations.
