Frequently Asked Questions
Will this night light prevent falls when I get up to use the bathroom at night?
Yes. The PIR motion sensor detects movement from up to 15 feet away and the diffuse backlit LED gently illuminates hallways, bathrooms and stair landings so you can see the path without turning on harsh overhead lights that disorient sleepy eyes.
Is the housing fire resistant for use in a child's bedroom or senior's room?
Yes. The casing is built with V-0 fire-resistant material and includes over-current protection, giving families and caregivers added peace of mind when the light is plugged in overnight.
Does it shut off automatically so it is not a fire risk while I sleep?
Yes. In motion mode the light turns off automatically after about 60 seconds of no movement, and in dusk-to-dawn mode it only operates when the room is dark, so there is no need to remember to switch it off.
Can I rely on it to light a dark staircase for an elderly parent?
Yes. The 120-degree motion sensor with a 3 to 5 meter range and the 60-second on-time give older adults enough time to safely cross a stair landing or hallway without fumbling for a light switch.
Is it safer than the open flame candles I am replacing for nighttime use?
Absolutely. This is a flameless, wax-free, smokeless LED plug-in light, so there is no open flame, no hot wax and no soot, making it a much safer choice for bedrooms, bathrooms and homes with kids or pets.
Is this a good night light for a parent worried about toddler falls?
Yes. The soft backlit glow lights the path between bedroom and bathroom without harsh glare, and the auto shutoff means it will not stay on all night, which is exactly what safety focused parents look for.
Will it help me avoid tripping over my senior dog in the hallway at night?
Yes. The motion activated warm light switches on as soon as you step into the hallway, giving you enough visibility to see your pet, toys or shoes on the floor before you reach them.
Is the on/off switch easy to find in the dark during an emergency?
The unit includes a physical on/off/auto switch on the side of the body, so you can quickly disable the light when not needed or force it on manually without fumbling.
How does this compare to a standard plug in night light for fall prevention?
Standard nightlights stay on all night at a fixed brightness, which can disrupt sleep. This unit uses motion and dusk-to-dawn sensors with adjustable brightness, so the light only appears when and where you need it, exactly the use case fall-prevention experts recommend.
How does it compare to battery powered motion lights for stair safety?
Battery lights fade, need frequent battery swaps and can fail mid-night. This AUVON unit plugs directly into the wall for reliable constant power, runs at only 1.5W, and includes a fire resistant housing for long term unattended use.
Is bright LED light at night a hazard to my eyes or my sleep?
No. The diffuse backlit design reflects light off the wall rather than shining directly into your eyes, and you can choose warm white or amber color temperatures that are far gentler on night vision and melatonin than typical blue-white nightlights.
Will the plug overheat if I leave it on every night for years?
No. The light draws only 1.5 watts, includes over-current protection and uses a V-0 fire-resistant shell, and the LEDs are rated for long life, so continuous nightly use in a hallway or bedroom is well within its safe operating range.
Does it stay cool to the touch so it is safe around curious children?
Yes. The low 1.5W LED output and efficient backlit design keep the surface cool during operation, so there is no hot bulb or heating element for a child to touch.
What if the motion sensor misses me walking through the hallway?
The 120-degree sensor is tuned for typical home movement, and you can switch the unit to dusk-to-dawn mode for hallways where the light should simply come on automatically when it gets dark, removing any chance of a missed trigger.
Is the light certified by an independent safety lab?
The product is designed to meet applicable safety standards and is built with V-0 fire resistant housing and over-current protection, giving you reliable unattended nighttime operation.
Will leaving it plugged in 24/7 raise my electricity bill?
No. At 1.5 watts per light, four units running in auto mode all night use only a fraction of a kilowatt hour per month, so they are designed to be left plugged in year round.
How do I set up the AUVON backlit night light for the first time?
Plug the unit into any standard wall outlet, slide the side switch to Auto for sensor mode or On for a constant glow, choose your preferred color temperature with the small selector, then press and hold the dimmer button to set your ideal brightness from 1 to 50 lumens. The light will remember your last setting for next time.
How do I switch between motion mode and dusk to dawn mode?
Both modes run automatically when the side switch is set to Auto. Use motion mode for bedrooms, nurseries and bathrooms where you want the light to come on only when you walk past, and use dusk to dawn mode for hallways and stairways where you want the light on whenever the room is dark.
How do I change the color temperature and brightness?
Use the small color temperature switch to choose warm white, amber or cool white, then press the dimmer button to step through preset levels or press and hold it for stepless dimming from 1 to 50 lumens. Your last setting is saved automatically thanks to the memory function.
Does it work with any standard US wall outlet?
Yes. The night light uses a standard US two prong plug and fits any standard 120V household outlet, including decorator and tamper resistant styles, and the compact body leaves the second outlet free for another device.
Will it work in a 220V or international outlet?
This model is designed for 120V US outlets. For international use you will need a region appropriate version of the AUVON night light, since the plug shape and voltage are different outside North America.
What is included in the four pack box?
You receive four AUVON backlit LED night lights, each ready to plug in and use, plus a quick start guide. No hub, batteries, screws or extra cables are required.
Is the light safe to leave plugged in all night and every night?
Yes. The light draws only 1.5W, uses a V-0 fire resistant housing, includes over-current protection and is designed for continuous unattended use in bedrooms, hallways, bathrooms and nurseries.
Can I disable the sensors and use it as a regular night light?
Yes. Slide the side switch to On for a constant glow at your saved brightness, or to Off to fully disable the light without unplugging it from the wall.
What is the difference between a backlit night light and a regular LED night light?
A regular LED night light shines directly into your eyes, which can feel harsh at night and disrupt sleep. A backlit night light shines toward the wall, so the light reflects off the surface and washes the room in a softer, more diffuse glow that is easier on your eyes.
