3.0 out of 5 stars If your power goes out a lot, September 11, 2007

By	TomK1 "tomk1" (Brookeville, MD) - See all my reviews

I've owned these for a few years and I just purchased another here on Amazon.

Basically, these lights are plugged into an outlet and have a little neon pilot light that lights up. When the power goes out, the flashlight comes on. There is a switch on the bottom to control this behavior, so it can work completely manually.

I find this is useful for lighting area that you need to walk in the dark at night with no power. It's also useful to use as a quick flashlight if you need one in a hurry.

The light lasts perhaps 15-30 minutes at full brightness and it will gradually get dimmer. I can't say how long it takes to go down to something too dim to be useful. However, if you want a flashlight, this is not the best choice.

The neon pilot light always stops working on these after a few years, and they're a little expensive for what you get. But this is the only low-cost emergency lighting choice. They're pretty much no-fuss.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Product in a Power Outage, February 1, 2006

By	G. Hoover "naturesemp" (Buckley, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We've had ours for over 7 years and need a new one. A great night light but super when the power goes out in the night! Lots of power outages in our area and this product has never failed. Switches to a brighter light when the power fails so you can see around the house. We have several in different areas.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Elegant & Simple Solution, February 23, 2002

By	"jlg22" (New York, NY United States) - See all my reviews

Unobtrusive, simple to use, and works well. I've already had the "opportunity" to need it while in the midst of a construction project. It allowed me to find my way out of my office cave.
