- Lamp heads & photometrics: Adjustable LED heads; design to achieve ≈ ≥1 fc average and ≥0.1 fc minimum along egress paths at 90 minutes.
- Finish & cleanability: Smooth white matte/gloss surfaces with stain/UV resistance; confirm color consistency and ease of cleaning for healthcare/retail/office interiors.
- Construction: Thermoplastic (lightweight/cost-effective) or aluminum/steel (architectural/durable); low-profile designs minimize visual impact; tamper-resistant hardware where appropriate.
- Mounting: Universal canopy/bracket for wall, ceiling, or end-mount; verify junction-box pattern, projection, and door/signage clearances.

- Battery: Maintenance-free Ni-Cd or lithium packs delivering ≥90 min runtime; check recharge time and ambient temperature range (heater options for cold spaces).
- Remote capacity: For extended coverage, select remote-capable versions and verify total watt load, conductor size, and run length for voltage-drop limits.
- Environment: Specify damp-location (or higher) where needed; consider IP/NEMA ratings for vestibules or semi-outdoor spaces.
- Diagnostics & maintenance: Optional self-testing electronics automate monthly/annual checks; maintain inspection logs per AHJ requirements.
