A [flashlight](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timeli-flashlight) works great, but they tend to be too bright, plus you can rarely find one when you need it. Night lights are great, but they only provide light in one area, right? WRONG! The Candela Guardian Nightlight is a two-part night light that provides light at the wall socket, but also has an extra piece that [acts as a lantern](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-lantern-1) and can be taken with you. Definitely an innovation for anyone who has [small children](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/munchkin-night-owl) or senior citizens living with them. It’s virtually maintenance free and is great as an emergency light. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 27% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/youth) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Portable Night Lights:** The rise of portable night lights as a convenient and multi-functional lighting solution. - **Dual-purpose Lighting:** The emergence of dual-purpose lighting solutions that serve both as an ambient wall light and a portable lantern. - **Low-light Technology:** Advancements in low-light technology that allow for discreet and unobtrusive lighting solutions. ### Who This Affects Most - **Home Improvement:** The home improvement industry can tap into the demand for multi-functional lighting that is easy to install and low-maintenance. - **Senior Care:** The senior care industry can benefit from the development of portable and low-light night lights that improve safety and convenience. - **Outdoor Recreation:** The outdoor recreation industry can find opportunities in the development of rugged and waterproof portable lighting solutions for camping and hiking activities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Soothing Auditory Infant Nightlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vava-peepalight.md) - [Connectable Motion-Detecting Nightlights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wyze-led-night-light.md) - [Soothing Speaker-Equipped Night Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lullaby-talk.md) - [Comforting Multifunctional Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buddy-portable-lamp.md) - [Astronaut Night Light Projectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/night-light-projectors.md) - [Color-Matching Night Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/angelcare-magical-dreams-lumicolor-bear.md) - [Rechargeable Multicolored Dinosaur Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/globe-electric.md) - [Connectable Motion-Sensing Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/briteman-giangle.md) - [Portable Wireless Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fsl-wireless.md)
