Abstract
An emergency light control and battery charging system utilizes a temperature compensated switched voltage regulator for charging the battery. Energization of the emergency light is effected through a field effect transistor which is turned on through a voltage doubler circuit enabled when there is a failure in the power supply. The system is arranged with a latch that insures that the light is not turned on when the battery is connected until after line power is initially applied. A low battery voltage detector insures that the battery is protected from a deep cycle discharge if line voltage is not restored.
