Provides 20 hours of emergency lighting
February 1st 2008

Home-Tek has negotiated the rights to manufacture and distribute the Safe-TLight self-contained nightlight and torch. The device is the brain child of British inventor Chris Haines, who invented it when his mother almost fell down stairs one night when the electricity failed.

The emergency light plugs into a normal 13A socket, has a rechargeable led torch that switches on automatically if the electricity fails providing the ambient light level is below the preset level.

During a power cut, the light automatically switches to its internal rechargeable battery and provides emergency lighting for about 20h. The light can be removed to use as an emergency torch.

In the event of a fire, Safe-T-Light gives an emergency light low down below smoke level when seconds can mean the difference between life and death.
