What is the best light to use at night?
When it comes to selecting lights that are best for nigh time, or early morning use, we recommend you find an option that operates on an automatic or sensor basis. Not only will this ensure optimal safety of the home, but with less light polluting the room during your slumber, you will be guaranteed of a quality rest. Additionally, and in our opinion, the best night lights also offer a dimmable function – allowing you to personalise the level of light appearing in your bedroom or hallways.
Is it okay to sleep with LED lights on?
Sleeping with LED lights on all throughout the night can hinder your sleep quality. Instead, it is recommended that you find a night light that caters to your sleeping behaviours. While it is fine to have an LED night light on while you are preparing for sleep, it is recommended that you also invest in a set of good quality motion sensor lights. Ultimately, this avoids both unnecessary electricity consumption and disturbance.
