Default Beyond Flashlights: Recommended Power Failure Night Lights?

Which night lights that automatically provide light in the event of a power failure are recommended?

Has anyone had any experience with the Garrity Rechargeable LED Flashlight with Night Light Item # KE200GST06N?
  • Nichia® 2X brighter LED - 100,000 hours (11.4 years of use)
  • Automatically lights up when power fails - up to 13 hours
  • Replaceable AAA Ni-MH batteries included
Thanks

Wouldn't a mod to AA NI-MH batteries be good? Something on the order of 2-3 times the capacity would always be helpful.

Hi John,

I'm sure you're correct. However, I don't know if the AA size will physically fit in the nightlight housing.

Is anyone aware of a similar model that will accept AA NI-MH batteries?

There is a great power failure night light made by Sylvania, see my review of it here http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/...d.php?t=186081

I'd be interested in any of these available in Australia.

Hello Scott,

Thanks for the link to your very comprehensive review of the Sylvania power failure night light.

I suspect the 3 user replaceable AAA Ni-MH batteries in the Garrity KE200GST06N may provide longer run time than the three non-replaceable button cells in the Sylvania. (Per the "Features" link, a "full charge provides up to 13 hours of continous light".)

Per Garrity:
Quote:
The Garrity rechargeable LED KE200 light has 45 Lumens.
How does this output compare to similar power failure night lights?

Thanks
