A system and method are provided for detecting emergency conditions and alerting a user while providing emergency lighting, using a combined alarm system. The system is connected to an external electrical power source to provide electrical power to the system, electrically charge an electrical energy storage, and provide ongoing detection of electrical power outages. When an alarm signal detector signaling device detects an external alarm signal, it generates an alternative alarm signal and a lighting source generates emergency lighting. When an abnormal voltage detector detects an electrical power outage, the lighting source included in the system generates emergency lighting. The user is able to carry the system as a portable source of emergency lighting, and control the generation of emergency lighting using an electrical power switch.
A combined alarm system, said system comprising:
The system of claim 5, wherein said attachment component is coupled to said device housing in a removable fashion.
The system of claim 5, wherein said attachment component, while coupled to said device housing, is wearable on a part of a human body.
A method of detecting emergency conditions and alerting a user while providing emergency lighting, said method including:
