Abstract
A battery assembly for a lighting fixture is provided. The battery assembly includes a battery unit comprising a battery unit housing and a first set of conductive pins. The battery unit housing is configured to accommodate one or more batteries configured to power one or more light sources of the lighting fixture. The first set of conductive pins are in electrical communication with the batteries. The battery assembly includes a battery interface comprising a battery interface housing and a second set of conductive pins. The battery interface housing is configured to accommodate the battery unit housing. The second set of conductive pins are coupled to the light source(s) so that the batteries power the light source(s) when the first set of conductive pins contact the second set of conductive pins. In some implementations, the battery unit can be inserted into the battery interface while the lighting fixture is energized.
