Abstract: This invention relates to a mounted emergency light fixture. The light fixture has a mount assembly and a front cover with a break plate which bends a light stick inserted into the fixture when the cover is pivoted from a closed position to an open position. The mount assembly has a restraining plate and a back side which maintain the light stick within the mount when the cover is pivoted to the open position. Hence, after the cover is opened the light sticks are illuminated and are held in the mount or may be removed to provide emergency lighting.
