I have seen the Eton Balckout Buddies over the years, but, frankly, never gave them much thought. Today, however, I was in Mill's Fleet Farm and looked at one a bit closer. I like the fact that it is an LED nightlight and comes on when the power goes out.
So, when I got home, I checked their webpage. I see that they now have several versions of the Eton Blackout Buddy. The Swivel appears to be the original that Fleet Farm had in stock.
They also have another one that adds two USB ports. The design will also swivel. It looks like a nice upgrade over the original. I think it will also serve as a battery pack for any devices connected via USB.
Finally, they have a Connect Charge, it is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Apple Homekit or Google Home.

Anyway, for anybody familiar with these, how well do they work out for you?
Also, are there any competing products that work better?
