High Lumen Emergency Lights – Ultra-Bright LED Fixtures for Maximum Egress Coverage
High lumen emergency lights are engineered to deliver powerful illumination—600 to 1600 lumens per unit—ensuring compliance with NFPA 101 and IBC egress lighting requirements. Increased lumen output allows for wider spacing and higher mounting heights, reducing fixture counts and installation costs.
Ideal for large areas such as warehouses, gymnasiums, high-ceiling corridors, and manufacturing floors, these fixtures provide ≥1 ft‑candle initial brightness along exit paths and maintain ≥0.1 ft‑candle at 90 minutes under emergency power.
Premium high-lumen emergency lights offer selectable output up to 1300 lumens, built with durable housings and support for remote head operation. Many models feature lithium-ion or Ni-Cd battery backup, self-testing diagnostics, and dual 120/277 VAC input for long-lasting, reliable performance.
What is a high lumen emergency light? It's a high-output egress fixture rated for 600+ lumens, ideal for wide-area coverage and high-mounting applications like warehouses, gyms, and industrial corridors.

FAQs About High Lumen Emergency Lights
❓ What qualifies as a "high lumen" emergency light?
These units provide significantly more output—typically 600 to 1600 lumens—to illuminate larger spaces with fewer fixtures.
❓ Why is high lumen output important?
Higher lumen output allows lighting to meet NFPA’s ≥1 ft‑candle requirement across wider areas and maintain ≥0.1 ft‑candle for the full 90‑minute duration.
❓ Where are high lumen units best used?
Ideal for **warehouses, gymnasiums, auditoriums, high-ceiling corridors,** and large commercial spaces where standard fixtures may fall short.
❓ Do they use more electricity?
No. Although output is higher, they use energy-efficient LEDs (≈20 lm/W), often consuming the same or less power than older halogen models.
❓ What kind of batteries do they include?
Most high lumen lights offer **lithium-ion or Ni-Cd battery packs** capable of 90 minutes runtime and quick recharges.
❓ Are self-testing models available?
Yes—many come with built-in diagnostics that run monthly and annual tests, simplifying compliance.
