Startup Company’s Products First to Break Design Barrier, Meeting Building Industry Demands For Lower Installation Heights

NEWARK, Del. (Business Wire EON) July 1, 2008 -- SentryLight Inc. (OTC Frankfurt/Xetra: 3SL) publicly announced that its innovative products received patent approval from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The invention relates to a fully-concealed emergency light that is hidden inside the wall until an AC power failure.

We invented SentryLight to save lives. With the tragedy at the World Trade Center and the 9/11 Commission's findings, architects, engineers and building owners around the world are more aware of the need to place emergency lights lower, below the smoke in a fire. The U.S. and international patents protect our intellectual property and build value for our shareholders

With installations in eleven countries, SentryLight’s innovative fixtures are penetrating the annual $1 billion emergency lighting market in the U.S., Canada, UAE and Europe. The company website is http://www.SentryLight.com.

Invented by a firefighter, the breakthrough product design is the world’s only emergency light approved for installation at any height. Lower installation heights enable the product to continue to work even after smoke from a fire blocks competitors lights installed near the ceiling. Required by building codes to provide illumination during a power failure, competitive designs are prone to vandalism, forcing independent labs like UL to require installation heights above 2.5 meters. A video case study on the SentryLight website demonstrates this competitive advantage.

SentryLight designs surpass conventional designs by providing an aesthetic solution for architects, a reliable solution for engineers and an affordable solution for building owners. For building occupants, the result is an increased ability to exit a building during an emergency, reducing injuries or even death.

“We invented SentryLight to save lives.

The U.S. and international patents protect our intellectual property and build value for our shareholders,” commented Brian Corbett, Fire Chief, Inventor and President of SentryLight.
