A flourescent lighting fixture includes a secondary housing member for ballast laterally offset from and to one side of a primary housing member for flourescent bulbing. A bridge assembly extends between the housing members. A dead air enclosure may be positioned to one side of the bridge assembly and within the primary housing member for heat transfer abatement purposes. A metallic diverter panel may be provided within the primary housing member, for example, as one wall of the dead air enclosure. The housing members include a series of exteriorly protruding fin plate means for defusing heat generated by the flourescent bulbing throughout and across the exterior of the housing members and away from the interior of the ballast assembly.
