Did you know that the batteries in your emergency exit lights, like people, may get low on electrolytes? And just like the human body, your lighting system may not work so well either, when it becomes deficient.
Besides checking the electrolyte levels in your batteries, they should be tested and terminals need to be clear of corrosion or other debris. Gel-type batteries need to be "cycled." When replacing batteries, properly disposed of the old ones in compliance with EPA standards.
Test any chargers on your system and of course, test the lamps. Chargers may need to be re-calibrated. Check the direction of all lamps. Are they pointing in the most effective manner to light the signs and the path of egress?
Emergency exit lighting systems also need to be inspected regularly to keep you in compliance with regulations.
