Wasn't sure if this should be in Packing or Technology, but we used these rechargeable night lights on our recent trip to Africa. I just ordered another set - I left one in our last camp :( Loved all aspects of these little lights - you can set warm or cool light, and the motion detection worked really well (we used them in the bathroom). You can also just keep them "on" all the time. They have a magnet for attaching, and a metal cover for storing (this also has a sticky back if you are mounting them maybe at home). They are small - 2" x 2" but still provided the light you need to...uh...navigate. Still working on one charge after 3 weeks of nightly use. Now part of our standard travel kit!

Looks like a winner.
Could even use them at home on stairways

Winning idea! I hate hunting for the light switch in the middle of the night so I can find the bathroom. Thanks for the link and review.

That’s a neat little travel light.
I have a coworker who uses her outdoor solar powered lights in her house during power outages.

Like it!
I stayed at 2 different Hampton Inns the last 2 weekends.
One had a nightlight in the switch plate in the bathroom. The other had nothing.
I usually carry a plug-in night light if I'm not sure there will be one. Hampton Inns are usually reliable about having one.. But apparently not always.

On a recent trip a couple of the hotels had night lights built into the handle of the hairdryer. Found that a clever idea.
