Oddly cheap emergency lighting

Hi All


I was wondering if anyone had come across the below:

https://www.lighthubdirect.com/collections/led-bulkhead-lights/products/14w-led-emergency-maintained-non-maintained-round-dome-bulkhead-light-3hr-white-ip65


Basically a 14W bulkhead with LiFePo4 battery, 3 hrs, 1000 lumens with 300 lumens in emergency mode - all for 30 quid.


That does not sound right to me cost wise - has anyone used this brand? if it is that cheap there must be something funny. I am going to have a read of BS EN 60598 to see if I can figure out anything, but just seems weird.

  • Price is good. But I expect you want advice from someone who has supplied and fitted those.

    It depends on quantity. If your using one or two and they fail, then not such a big deal. But if it is a much larger number and a high failure rate, you lose the saving.


    I am still the physical wholesaler type person; like to be able to eyeball the people selling me the stuff. Though will still use online for tried and trusted materials.
