There's nothing quite worse than stumbling around in the dark when you've gotten up to use the lavatory or grab a glass of water in the night, so Ellum Motion Sensing Lights are here to help light the way around your home without the need for an outlet or electrical wiring.

The wireless design of Ellum Motion Sensing Lights is powered by AA batteries, which allows you to place them almost anywhere from the top or bottom of the stairs, to the hallway. Able to be secured in place with screws or adhesive, Ellum Motion Sensing Lights turn on for 20-seconds when they sense motion and automatically turn off when you're gone, which makes for power savings and convenience in the long run.
