Abstract: A wall-washer lighting fixture is installed flush with a ceiling surface and directs light horizontally and vertically along adjacent wall surfaces, closely adjacent to the intersection between the ceiling and the wall surfaces in order to reduce to a minimum any shaded area along wall surfaces adjacent the intersection. The lighting fixture includes first lens elements oriented, located and configured for directing light toward first areas of the wall surface, spaced vertically downwardly from the intersection, and a second lens element located vertically lower than the first lens elements and oriented and configured for directing light toward second areas of the wall surface, located between the first areas and the intersection between the ceiling surface and the wall surface, so as to illuminate the wall surface more uniformly while reducing to a minimum any shaded area along the wall surface adjacent the intersection.

Abstract: A lamp safety retainer includes resiliently flexible retainer elements located beneath the base of a vertically oriented compact fluorescent lamp coupled with a lamp socket in a luminaire so as to intercept the base upon inadvertent uncoupling of the lamp from the lamp socket to preclude fall of the uncoupled lamp from the luminaire, while enabling selective flexing of the retainer elements for deliberate removal and replacement of the lamp in the luminaire.

Abstract: A lamp safety retainer includes resiliently flexible retainer elements in the form of helically coiled spring wire retainers covered with a non-metallic textile material and located beneath the base of a vertically oriented compact fluorescent lamp coupled with a lamp socket in a luminaire so as to intercept the base upon inadvertent uncoupling of the lamp from the lamp socket to preclude fall of the uncoupled lamp from the luminaire, while enabling selective flexing of the retainer elements for deliberate removal and replacement of the lamp in the luminaire.
