Certified. Tested. Verified by Independent Labs.

Most work light brands print logos on a box. DAYATECH backs every claim with paperwork you can verify.

Nine independent certifications. Third-party labs. Numbered reports. No marketing language — just the test data that qualifies these lights for electrical crews, utility contractors, and professional jobsites across North America and Europe.

This page lists every certification DAYATECH holds, what each one tests, and what it means when you specify a light for your team.

The Nine Certifications Behind Every DAYATECH Light

cETLus — Safety Certified for US & Canada

Issued by Intertek. Covers electrical safety for plug-connected and battery-powered luminaires sold in the US and Canada. A cETLus mark signals the product passed the same base standard as a UL listing — relevant for contractors on sites that require NRTL-listed equipment. Applies to: 363B, 368, 363Z, 363D.

ETL — Independent Electrical Safety Listing

ETL-Listed by Intertek. Confirms compliance with ANSI/UL 153 and CSA C22.2 No. 250 for luminaires. Verifies insulation, thermal cutoff, and short-circuit behavior under sustained load. Applies to: 363B, 368, 363Z, 363D.

FCC Part 15 — Electromagnetic Compliance

Federal Communications Commission compliance for unintentional radiators. DAYATECH lights pass FCC Part 15 Class B limits, meaning the driver electronics do not interfere with two-way radios, GPS receivers, or communication equipment on utility and construction sites. Applies to: all battery-platform variants.

LM-79 — Photometric Performance Report

IES LM-79-19 is the industry test method for SSL (solid-state lighting) photometry. Every DAYATECH SKU has a third-party LM-79 report on file documenting: total lumen output, CCT (color temperature), CRI (color rendering), beam angle, and efficacy (lm/W). When we say “4,000 lumens,” LM-79 is why that number means the same thing it would on a certified architectural fixture.

LM-80 — LED Lumen Maintenance Data

IES LM-80-08 tests LED chip lumen maintenance over 6,000+ hours at controlled temperature. DAYATECH LED packages hold LM-80 data supporting L70 estimates — the hours to 70% initial output. This is the standard data set used for DLC submissions and long-term fixture specification.

LM-80 chip-level test data is available by request for spec submittals — contact Support.

VOC Certification — Volatile Compound Compliance

Volatile Organic Compound compliance covers the non-electrical portion of the product: enclosures, adhesives, lens materials. Relevant for indoor use, confined-space work, and facilities with air-quality restrictions.

German Utility Patents (Gebrauchsmuster) — 9 Granted

DAYATECH holds nine German utility patents covering the folding hinge geometry, the universal battery adapter architecture, the zoomable optical stack (363Z), and the thermal routing that lets a 7,000-lumen IP65 fixture (363D) run continuous without shutdown. These patents protect the original design work that made the DAYATECH foldable form factor possible. When competitors copy the shape, they copy what these patents describe.

Why Certifications Matter When You Buy a Work Light

Certifications filter the work light market into two groups: brands that published test data, and brands that published marketing copy.

If a light runs outdoors on a commercial jobsite, OSHA, the NEC, and many utility safety programs require electrically-listed fixtures. A crew lead pulling an unlisted fixture onto a switchyard can be cited — even if the fixture “looks fine.”

Certification matters downstream, too. If a project specifies “4,000 lumens minimum at the work plane,” an LM-79 report is what makes that spec verifiable. A box that just says “4,000 lm!!” is a guess.

DAYATECH built the certification stack first and designed the product second. Every number on the spec sheet traces back to a report we can send.

Additional Documentation for European Jobsites

For procurement teams sourcing into the EU & UK, DAYATECH holds the full CE conformity package. Download any certificate below.

What This Means for Your Jobsite

  • Utility & switchyard crews: cETLus + FCC Part 15 means the light is listed and will not interfere with radio comms.
  • OSHA-regulated construction: ETL listing satisfies NRTL-listed fixture requirements for commercial sites.
  • Spec-driven procurement (government, military, large GC): LM-79 and LM-80 reports available on request for submittal packages.
  • Indoor / confined space / facility work: VOC compliance for air-quality-controlled environments.
  • OEM and private label: Nine utility patents are the base IP that supports custom manufacturing. See Custom Projects.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you send the LM-79 or LM-80 report for a specific SKU?

LM-79 fixture-level reports are published directly on this page — see the download links under each certification. For LM-80 chip-level data or sku-specific submittal packages, contact Support with the product model and we will email the full third-party lab report.

Are the certifications on the product itself or just on the box?

Both. The cETLus and FCC marks are printed directly on the fixture per NRTL listing requirements. Box labels carry the full certification set.

Do these certifications cover the battery adapter?

The adapter is tested as part of the integrated fixture under cETLus and ETL. The battery pack itself carries the original tool-brand (DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, Bosch) certifications.

Why German utility patents and not US patents?

The original DAYATECH design work was filed and granted under the German Gebrauchsmuster system, which protects functional designs. Equivalent US design-patent applications are part of the ongoing IP work.
