Mini 3.0

My mum used to walk to the bathroom in the dark on purpose. She had it in her head that turning the light on meant she'd be up till 5. She fell in November and broke her pelvis. Eleven weeks between the hospital and the rehab place. She's home now and these are in her hall and her bathroom and she actually uses them, which I did not expect at all, she wouldn't go near the motion sensor ones we tried. All she wanted was to see the doorway. Two years I've been on at her about lighting. Two years.

Second lowest setting. Never moved it. Never will.

Fine. It's fine. It does what it says. I'm giving it four because I paid extra for the dimmer version and then discovered my husband will still find a way to turn on the overhead light, so that's a me problem not a light problem I suppose. Light's good.

Up twice a night, over 50, you know the drill. Was either turn the light on and then lie there for an hour, or take my chances with the dresser in the dark. Six months with this and I'm back asleep in two minutes. Wife hasn't woken once. Will say I thought the red would look daft, like a darkroom, and it does for about a night and then you stop seeing it.

every single nightlight ive bought lit up the whole room. every one. i had one that looked fine at bedtime and by 2am the nursery was glowing like a fish tank. this one goes right down to nearly nothing and STAYS there. thats it. thats all i ever wanted

i used to drape a tea towel over the old one and whip it off when she woke up. that was my system. i had a system. involving a tea towel. anyway this just does that

I'll be honest, the wife ordered it, I thought it was a waste of money and I said so. It's been in the hallway since June. I use it more than she does. That's all I'm going to say about it.

Bright light at night hurts me, actually physically hurts, and I've had people be quite dismissive about that over the years. I've slept in blackout for a decade and just accepted that I walk into the doorframe. This is the first light I can look straight at. Three months and I've used it every night. If you know, you know.

Extractor fan's wired to the bathroom light so every trip at 3am started with that buzzing. Haven't touched the switch since March.

Bought two. Needed four. It's the whole route not one spot, you don't clock that until you've got them in. Bedroom hall bathroom kitchen. Get the multipack, don't be me.

2:30 and then again at 4, every night, screaming for the hall light. Now it's "put my red light on" and she goes back down by herself. She's nearly 3 though so I'm not ruling out that she's just growing out of it and I've spent thirty quid on a coincidence

No charging. Review over.

I can't sleep in the pitch black, he can't sleep with anything on. That's been a genuine problem in this house for eleven years, we have argued about it at 3am more times than I can count and it's never once been a productive conversation. This has held since March. He says he can't see it from his side. I can find the door. I'm not being dramatic when I say I wish we'd found it a decade ago.

Old one had three settings, dim, less dim, and still too bright. This slides all the way down which is the entire difference. Four stars purely on price, I want a second one for the landing and I'm annoyed about what it's going to cost me. Buying it anyway obviously

Two weeks postpartum, doing nappy changes by feel or putting the big light on which made the room feel like A&E at 3 in the morning. Girl in my antenatal group mentioned it. Ordered it that night, off no sleep, half crying. Best decision I made that week and I wasn't making good decisions that week

cat starts his patrol at 4. every night. no reason. i used to follow him down with my phone torch like an idiot. now theres a bit of glow on the stairs and i can see where hes gone. he doesnt set this one off either which the motion one he absolutely did, constantly, on purpose i think

Dad's 89 and uses a urinal by the bed rather than walking to the loo. Enough light that he can manage without calling me through. He wouldn't use the last one, said it made him feel like he was back in hospital, and that was the end of that. This one he uses every night and doesn't mention. Which is how you know.

He wakes up screaming a couple of times a week and we'd stacked nightlights everywhere trying to sort it. Bathroom on, landing on, house lit up like a corner shop at 2am. We're down to two of these and he's noticeably calmer. So apparently more light was making it worse, which nobody told us, and we'd been doing it for a year and a half

Slider. No wifi. Sold.

33 weeks. Up four times a night. Was going in the dark to avoid the light because once it hits me I'm awake for an hour minimum and then I'm lying there doing sums about how much sleep I've got left. Two weeks with this and I'm actually dropping back off. Keeping it for the baby obviously

Had smart bulbs. One night the bathroom light came on by itself at 2am after an update and I lay there genuinely unsettled by it for a good while. That was the end of the smart house era in this flat. This has a slider on the side. That's the technology. Nothing to pair, nothing to charge, nothing that wants me to open an app in the middle of the night

I was properly stressed about nursery lighting, which sounds ridiculous now and felt ridiculous at the time as well. Every cute little dimmable lamp we bought, she'd just lie there staring at it, wide awake, delighted. She doesn't look at this one. Not once. It's boring. That is the entire point and nobody tells you that

Knees are shot and I kept taking the stairs in the dark because putting the landing light on meant being up till 5. Can see my feet now. That's it really

Take one away with me now. Those frosted hotel bathroom doors, you know the ones, might as well be a window. Plug it in by the bed and you can find the loo without waking the room

Housemate gets in about 1 and flips the hall light on which comes straight under my door. Put one out there and asked him to use that instead and he does, mainly because it's less effort than finding the switch. Four stars, I'd want a slightly warmer red, but it's stopped the problem

Leave at 5:30. Getting dressed used to mean the big light and the look that came with the big light. Not an issue now

Son's 8. Gets up for a wee at 3. Does not turn the bathroom light off. Ever. Straight into my face and then that's my night finished. This is in the hallway now. He can see, I stay asleep, everyone's happy. Ordered two more last week
