Rubbish emergency spot lights

Looks very cheap and the seller has put paper over the original labels. The unit has power, charging light and "trouble" light. There is a test button although it's usually easier to just turn off the power, especially considering spot emergency lights are usually high up.

Looks like a right pile of wank. Doubt that complies to any safety standards at all. Funny thing is, by putting his company name on those, he becomes even more liable than if he were just selling them as originally made.

I hope whoever it was didn't purchase a fire extinguisher from the same seller - something tells me neither would work properly!

That's crap. It doesn't look to be earthed either.

To be fair, probably hasn't got any metal in it, that costs money. lol

Is is made out of very thin metal and there is a dent on the front left of it even though it's supposedly new.

Didn't even notice the fitting after that!

I thought it might be put there just for picture but I have a feeling it would be shipped stuck on.
