Why do I need this?

Nightlights aren’t just for kids. They’re a practical gadget that helps you to safely roam your home at night, without walking into walls or knocking over tables. These sleek plug-ins are so versatile that they work in dark hallways, bedrooms, kitchens — even closets — giving you just the right amount of light to guide your steps, but not so much that they’ll distract you or interrupt your sleep.

The standout feature of these slim LEDs is their auto on/off function. Their built-in light sensors detect surrounding light intensity, automatically illuminating at night and turning off during the day. There’s no technical setup or learning curve with these. No need to pair them with Bluetooth or connect them to Alexa or Google Home. Just plug them into a wall outlet and let them do their thing. Simplicity never looked so sweet.

Reviewers say the light they emit is neither too bright nor too dim — just the right amount of glow to keep you from stumbling at night while you go from room to room. Plus, they’re energy-efficient thanks to their dusk-to-dawn sensor. With this feature, the brightness changes according to ambient light, so the darker the room, the brighter the nightlight will be — and vice versa.
