Hi Folks,
I was in NYC on a business trip and was staying at the Mandarin Oriental New York (a client of mine). They were nice enough to upgrade me to a 42nd floor corner room overlooking the Hudson ($2,500 a night +10% NYC tax LOL).
I looked in a hallway closet where the iron and ironing board is stashed and there is a good old fashioned 2 D cell incan with a yellow body with the words, "Emergency light". I tried it and it worked!! I imagine it will suffice to get down 40+ stories in an emergency??? However, it is certainly better than nothing at all and I was actually glad to see them being responsible in this regard.
Although, my trusty L2 with an ARC AAA Premium GS as backup would have blazed the way for me in-case of a real emergency, it is nice to know that large cities are taking these things into account.
Good Night...
