Reading, crossword puzzles, etc. By the time you’re finished, it’s time for round 2. 
I guess bathrooms bore the crap out of me in record time
Young people…
I picked up one of these from Walmart awhile back: https://www.amazon.com/GE-38628-Designer-Farmhouse-Entryway/dp/B07C57YLPR
2200K. Equivalent to the old 7 watt incandescent night lights in brightness and color temperature. For a nightlight, it’s very bright. No idea which emitter they’re using.
I’m interested in any suggestions for a battery powered night light or <1 lumen as we don’t have power plugs in the right places. I used to use a Nitecore NU30 headlamp which lasted about 3 weeks on <1 lumen (about double the runtime specification), but the battery died after 3 years.
Need to be off-the-rack?
Preferably, yes!
These are really good. And if you catch their 2-for-1 or 40 percent off deal, which comes around fairly often, they’re reasonably priced.

Not sure if anyone wanted one of these but
I had one of these as a gift and it comes in a very nice warm 3000k light. Rechargeable and has auto turn off for 3-5 minutes of light on. Found many cheaper alternatives if you hunt in the right spots in amazon.
It uses a 14mm star in my unit which I could always swap to something nicer but the stock LED is good enough for me
Just hunt for Faucet Tap Drippy Night Light Voice Activated
Usually the voice activated are usb rechargeable and the non voice activated are 3x AAA battery types.
Thanks, I’ll check it out.
You probably don’t have kids do you?
At least not mine 
Easy — Mr. Beams Step lights. I’ve bought quite a few of them, most given as gifts. I have a healthy stash (~20 or so) myself. I’m always on the road for work, so these often get set up in hotel rooms, usually leaving a couple on the corners of furniture and a few in the bathroom.
MB500-WHT = 4000K neutral white (looks more like 3500K to my eyes) (Amazon link)
MB500A-WHT = 600nm (~1800K) amber. (Amazon link)
The -WHT refers to the white case. Not sure if they ever made other colors.
They run on 2x AAAs, and are very happy with Eneloops. I recommend rechargeables in them as I’ve had issues with alkalines leaking in them. Good for 6-12 months depending on how dark it is. Not much bigger than the 2 AAAs themselves.
Thanks for the suggestion. Looks like they ship to Australia too!
I use rechareables in them to avoid that, as I’ve noticed LED lights mostly all stay bright even as the alkalines start leaking, unlike the old incandescent bulbs that went dim orange usually before or just as the alkalines start to leak.
I do wish MrBeams would redesign their lights to assume five 1.2v NiMH cells rather than four 1.5v alkalines.
I’ve been wondering about wiring in and taping on an extra battery holder.
That’s because I have so many of them around the house that every few weeks I’ve got to put in freshly recharged batteries on one of them.
I have quite a few Mr Beams lights and am using rechargeables without a problem. For the D-cell & C-cell lights, I do use alkalines, but haven’t had those leak on me yet. The one D-cell ceiling light went 2 years on the same set of batteries. I only changed that one because it was starting to get dim.
Thanks for the tips. Purchased a two pack of MB500A-WHT
Sadly Mr Beams don’t ship to Australia, but managed to find an Amazon store that did.
So the Mr Beams MB500A-WHT that I ordered have arrived. Brightness is just right for a bathroom night light, amber light is great for night time use, and the automatic light sensor works well. The only thing I don’t like is absolutely terrible PWM, that is visible just by looking at it (not even moving your head).
Huh. I don’t have that model, I have the 4xAA square ones and don’t notice any PWM on those.
Thanks for the warning, I hope you post a review on their website.
People really vary in their threshold for perception of flicker frequency, (or Critical fusion frequency (CFF) ), but if anybody can see it, I don’t want it in my house.
I’ll avoid that model.

For daughter’s nightlight I just use my Fireflies PL47G2 with sst20 2700 JA3 on lowest output. 21700 battery… good runtime.
Using it as I write with a mini tripod to light up the ‘stage’ with a Sylvanian Families house set… pre bedtime soft light.
Ooo, I’d love to put a Sunlike 2700k in one of these! Could you do a writeup on how you did the optisolis?
