Re: Exterior Emergency Egress Lights
I have been installing battery packs on all exterior exits, The code actually requires emergency lighting to the public right of way; not just on the outside of the building. However, this is seldom inforced. Pretty much eliminates anything but compact fluorscent. Also, watch out in cold climates, need special ballasts and batteries for fluorescents if it gets too cold. What a mess.
Jim, where does IBC require multiple lamps, ballasts etc.? I may be guilty of your one lamp design.
