Abstract: Disclosed herein is a lighting system that may include a faceplate, a lighting component, a common electrical component, a battery, means for sensing that normal power is not available, means for triggering a connection between the battery and the light emitting device, means for displaying whether the battery is charged, and a means for triggering a test of the light emitting device and the battery. The faceplate may be sized to cover a single gang electrical box and may include a means to mount approximately flush to the electrical box. The lighting component may be permanently affixed to the faceplate and may include a light emitting device in a first portion of the faceplate such that when illuminated light may emit away from the electrical box.
