Modular lighting unit

A lighting fixture comprising an elongated housing having a top wall, a bottom wall, and a pair of opposed side walls;

• said top wall having a width which is greater than the width of said bottom wall whereby said bottom wall has a longitudinal free edge located below the top wall;
• a plurality of light bulbs mounted in said housing and projecting beyond said free edge of the bottom wall and below said top wall;
• a reflector mounted in said housing having a reflector wall located between said top wall and said bulbs, said reflector wall having a plurality of longitudinally-spaced air vents formed therein, each consisting of at least one slot formed in the reflector wall;
• and said top wall having a plurality of longitudinally-spaced air vents formed therein, each consisting of at least one slot;
• said slots in the top wall of the housing being located between the slots in the reflector wall when the fixture is viewed in plan, whereby air below the reflector wall heated by said bulbs will flow through the air vents in the reflector out the air vents in the top wall while light passage out of the top wall is blocked.

A lighting fixture comprising an elongated housing having a top wall, a bottom wall, and a pair of opposed side walls, said top wall having a width which is greater than the width of said bottom wall whereby said bottom wall has a longitudinal free edge located below the top wall;

• a circuit board mounted in said housing perpendicular to said top wall;
• a plurality of lamps mounted on said board projecting beyond said free edge of the bottom wall and below said top wall;
• a reflector mounted in said housing having a first reflector wall located between the top wall and said bulbs and a rear reflector wall adjacent said board;
• said rear wall having apertures therein through which said bulbs extend, a blind mating interconnect connector mounted on said board adjacent at least one of the side walls of the housing;
• said at least one side wall having an opening formed therein providing access to said blind mating interconnect connector.
