Red LED Exit Sign with Dual Faces
The Acuity Lithonia WLTE thermoplastic exit sign uses red LED illumination across two faces to mark egress paths in commercial and institutional buildings. It operates on 120/277 voltage and includes universal field-selectable chevrons for directional indication. No internal emergency battery is fitted, so the unit relies on an external power source for backup operation.
Surface Mount Installation and Common Issues
The lightweight plastic housing mounts to standard junction boxes and the chevron arrows are configured on site by removing the appropriate knock-out tabs. Installers sometimes forget to set the directional indicators before final fix, leaving the arrows pointing the wrong way. Because there is no integral battery, the circuit must remain energised from a central inverter or generator during a power loss.
Voltage Compatibility Determines Suitability
The sign accepts 120 or 277 volts AC, so it matches the two most common North American lighting circuits. If the building supply is a different voltage, an additional transformer or a different model will be required. Buyers who need self-contained battery backup should select a separate unit that includes an emergency power pack.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the exit sign is operating correctly once it is wired at 120/277 V?
After wiring, the red letters should illuminate steadily on both faces and the selectable chevron indicators will point in the chosen direction, showing the unit is receiving power and the LEDs are functional.
What components are included and what must be purchased separately for installation?
The package contains the thermoplastic housing with dual red faces, universal field-selectable chevrons, and the internal LED driver; mounting hardware and 120/277 V wiring supplies are not included.
Which version should I choose if I need a self-contained sign without a backup battery?
This model has no emergency battery and runs directly on 120/277 V, so it is the correct choice when a simple AC-only exit sign is required.
