AMERELLEMotion Sensor Night Light - LED Plug In Night Light With Sensor That Lights Up When It Auto Detects Motion - Wide 100 Degree Detection Zone - Ideal for Bathroom & Nursery - (73092CC)

I bought these to safely light the way to the bathroom and kitchen without turning on main lights and disturbing other sleepers at night. They quickly detect motion and stay lit for about 45 seconds after motion ceases.

Previously I had a Mr Beams MB 722 which is battery operated unlike this which is plugin. My Mr. Beams flaked out after 9 months to where it turned off during the day time like it is supposed to but began staying on all night long rather than on and off with motion as it is designed to do. I finally had enough and pitched the MB 722 for the AmerTac.First off, it may be my tan walls in the bathroom where this sits, but the unit looks more pink that nickle. At first I didn't notice it coming out of the package but this morning I actually thought I bought a pink hued version which turns out isn't even offered. It's not big deal because it's only faintly pink looking not like solid pink.I was happy to report that this unit puts out more light than the MB 722 it replaces yet it's more diffuse or softer than the light the MB 722 put out. This is actually a great plus because I was always disappointed with the amount of light put out by the MB 722. With the AmerTac, it seems like more of my bathroom is getting light but it isn't so super bright that it blind you or wakes up my wife since our master is separated from the bedroom by a pocket door. It's great that I can open the pocket door and have the AmerTac kick on for either of us to use the toilet or get a drink without waking the other. We don't even need to close the door the light is soft enough.The only downside I see compared to the MB 722 is that the motion detection range doesn't seem to be as far as the MB 722. With the Mr. Beams, as soon as the pocket door was half slid open it'd kick on (when it was new and worked right). I have to take a step into the bathroom before the AmerTac turns on yet they are in almost the same identical location. It's not a big deal and in no way substantially detracts from the positives it does have when compared to the MB 722.But, the shorter detection distance is why i gave it 4 instead of 5 stars. So this 4 star rating is derived from a direct comparison with the MB 722 I had. The AmerTac may have better detection than every other competitor other than the Mr. Beams warranting a 5 star vote if this was your review. I can't stress enough how much better the lighting is for my purposes versus the Mr. Beams MB 722. Now, will this unit last longer than my MB 722? I sure hope so.On a side now, I do wish this had battery backup should the power go out. A couple of AA batteries or a 9-volt would be perfect. It'd be a nice feature and even worth $5-$10 more in my opinion. Since we have flashlights in the bedroom, it's not that big of a deal but it would be a nice feature if it was added.

We desperately needed this. Our son sleeps in our bed so whenever one of us decides to go to sleep we can't turn on the lights in the room. But we obviously need some light to get in there without making too much noise - especially if he wakes up before we come to sleep & we need to go comfort him or something.I'm SUPER sensitive to light - I had to put electrical tape over the cable box because the little green lights on it were driving me mad at night. Any night light was constantly being unplugged each time I would come to sleep, which of course resulted in one of us bumping into something the next night (usually while attempting to plug it back in the pitch dark).This does not obstruct the lower outlet - another great feature - and it will turn on if approached from an angle. It's located on the wall by the bedroom door, but that wall is angled (our bedroom has 5 walls, a square with a corner cut out basically - and this is on the angled wall - it goes off just fine when I walk through the bedroom door at about a 45° angle from it). If the overhead lights are on this does not turn on at all. It will however turn on during the day if the overheads aren't on - but that's probably b/c our bedroom does not get much natural light & this across the room from the only set of windows (sliding doors actually).The motion sensor is not overly sensitive. This is located about 4-5ft away from the foot of our bed on my side. If I move a bit (to reposition or something) it won't go off. It will go off if one of our dogs decides to relocate though (yes, our bed is very very full at night...2 dogs, 2 adults & a toddler). I usually have to wave my foot in the air once or twice to trigger it, which is good since we don't want it going off every 5 minutes as I'm a bit of an active sleeper.If you're looking for a very bright light - this is probably not for you. The light is pretty dim - you couldn't read anything by it or locate your keys in your purse probably, but it's enough to basically see what's in front of you & make your way around a room. On a scale of 1-5 (5 being brightest) I'd say this is a 2-3. So if you want an average night light brightness that just doesn't stay on all the time I highly recommend this night light!

You know...that middle of the night wake up call? You don't want to get up, you especially don't want to turn on the light just to go to the bathroom because it will interrupt your sleep cycle and you may never get back to sleep. This was the best solution to that situation. It isn't overly bright and it has a motion sensor so it isn't on all night interrupting your sleep in that way. A great buy!

Este producto funciona muy bien y es muy util sobretodo en las noches cuando hay oscuridad total y cuando hay personas mayores para evitar que cuando se levanten tengan que encender la luz en un apagado aqui se hace automaticamente y a un buen precio

Esperaba una luz un poco menos intensa. Aunque funciona muy bien. Excelente para pasillos sin luz onpara vestidores y baños

Works fine and is very useful in our dark hallway leading to bedrooms and bathrooms. One thing I hadn't thought of was that we have small dogs who get up in the night because they're mischievous or bored, or one of them thinks she hears a squirrel or leaf or whatever .... when she leaves the bedroom and goes down the hall she activates the light. which kind of shines into our bedroom because of the location. Not a major concern at all, though. Overall, I quite like it ... the level of lighting is pleasant and not too much, and the shut-off time is fine.

I've been generally happy with it. I use it in the bathroom so that I don't have to turn on the main lights when I go in at night. It turns on automatically when it detects movement, and turns off automatically a minute after the person leaves (or stops moving). The brightness is just right for my needs.One little quirk about how it operates: If it's bright in the room and it detects movement, it won't turn on. If it's dark and it detects movement, it will turn on. That's expected. But then if you turn on the main lights while it's on, it will not automatically turn off. In fact, it will stay on until a minute after all movement stops, even though the room is well lit. Not a big enough deal to remove a star though.

Love this motion-activated night light. We put it in our bathroom so that if we need to get up at night to use the bathroom, we don't have to turn on the lights and wake ourselves up (we can stay sleepy, so we can go back to sleep easier!). Turns off after 30 seconds of inactivity, so if you're on the toilet for longer you may have to wave to activate it again ;) We had purchased the Sensky one at first but found it was too bright. This one casts a warm light and it is dimmer, which is perfect for what we wanted.
