I do not like running into things. Since I can’t see in the dark, I am a
believer in nightlights. I am of an age
where I am frequently up during the night.
Stumbling around is counterproductive to healthy toes. Walks in the dark lead to cracked elbows,
throbbing stubbed toes and immoderate speech therefore I use nightlights.
I found these nightlights on Amazon and they were priced
aggressively at $12.99 with free shipping on orders of $25.00. There were a variety of ratings and
reviews. They provide adequate
light. The light they provide is bluish
in color. One complaint was they are
flimsy in construction. They are a bit
flimsy but once you plug it in, who cares?
You aren’t going to be handling it.
You do need to firmly plug them in.
They do not easily seat themselves, you need to give them a good
push. They have a light sensor which
turns them off when there is light in the room and on when it is dark. They also have a swivel head that allows you
to direct the light which is a very positive feature.
The light bulb is an LED that the manufacturer claims uses
90% less electricity than an incandescent bulb of similar lighting. My four 7 Watt incandescent light bulbs used
28 watts of electricity. Replacing them
reduced the use of electricity to 2.8 watts.
I am sure I will NOT see a change in my electric bill. However if 10,000 people changed four 7 watt
nightlights to LED it would save 252,000 watts of electricity. That is an astounding savings of our
resources.
I don’t expect you to jump on the computer and buy new
nightlights but when and if you need them, might I suggest that you consider
your environment and save some electricity.
I received no compensation for this post. I purchased the nightlights, they were not
given to me to review.
If reviewing a product, it may have been received free of charge. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
