Emergency Light Battery

An emergency light battery refers to the batteries that are inside emergency lighting fixtures and provide operational power during emergencies. These batteries lose their ability to charge over time. Most batteries have an average lifespan of five years. It is important to test your emergency light batteries to comply with OSHA(Occupational Safety and Health Administration) regulations and to insure the safety of building occupants were an emergency to occur. Push-to-test battery buttons are standard and many emergency light models are available with upgradeable testing options to simplify maintenance.EL-1 Emergency Light
