Our take on the GE LED Power Failure Night Light 11281

The GE LED Power Failure Night Light is a plug-in night light that switches to battery power when the outlet loses electricity, so it keeps glowing during an outage. It has a light sensor for automatic dusk-to-dawn operation, two LEDs at 50 lumens in soft white, and a sealed rechargeable battery. It suits hallways, stairwells and bedrooms where a little light during a blackout matters. Compared with plain plug-in night lights it adds the backup function, but it is not dimmable, the battery cannot be replaced, and its 3.2-star rating shows many owners find the light output or battery life disappointing.

Questions and answers

Does it turn on by itself during a power outage?
Yes. It runs on outlet power normally and switches to its internal battery when power is lost, so it stays lit.
Can the battery be replaced?
No. The rechargeable battery is sealed inside the unit, so when it wears out the whole night light has to be replaced.
How bright is it?
It puts out about 50 lumens of soft white light, which is enough to guide you down a hallway but not to light a room.
Does it work as a flashlight?
It can be unplugged and carried, but it is a small plug-in unit with modest output, so it is a backup light rather than a real flashlight.
Is it dimmable?
No. It has a single brightness level and no dimmer control.
Where should I plug it in?
Any standard indoor outlet works. Place it in a hallway, stairwell or bedroom where a low light is useful at night.
Where is the GE LED Power Failure Night Light 11281 cheapest?
At Zoro, for $13.69, 40% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
