Overview

The T8 fluorescent tube is a popular lighting solution for many types of commercial applications. The FLEL takes the efficiency and longevity of the T8 fluorescent tube and pairs it with an emergency ballast backup. During normal operations, the FLEL-T8 can be used as a normal light.

When power to your building or facility is lost during an emergency, powerful Nickel Cadmium batteries provide 90 minutes of emergency support. The snap together design makes installation and maintenance for this emergency light simple. Polycarbonate construction and a clear cover shields the emergency light from vandalism and corrosion.
