    What are using them for? The amount of power they will use, will depend what bulbs you put into them. This are used on sites, clipped to the ceiling and often never removed, they aren't expensive so were just left behind.

    I dont think the regs would allow these on a farm. Any lighting that is supported just by the cable flex isn't allowed iirc. You would probably be looking at more a stronger solution like pvc conduit, and then IP rated light fittings, it would depend on the level of dust and water in the area but would be IP44 or above.

    They are 110volt so you would need to plug them into a tranformer or a 110v socket. as Davy said they would not withstand dust or water, but if you mounted them at a decent height(2.5mtr or higher) you should be fine. Consumption for 3hrs a mth wuld be very little..
