Tools and Hardware Reviews of C. Crane BNB Bright Night LED Nightlight Bulb
Customer Review: Amazingly bright. Very efficient. Better than expected
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a no name LED replacement bulb from Walmart for a couple of dollars, and I hooked the nightlight up to my kill-a-watt energy meter and I found out that the Walmart LED used MORE electricity than the normal incandescent nightlight bulb (around 2 watts), while at the same time not being as bright. I just got these bulbs today and I am absolutely blown away by how bright they are. They are much brighter than the standard incandescent bulb- there is no comparison. And the fact that they use less than a watt (about .8 watts according to reviews) means that we can leave the two bulbs on 24/7 and only use about $1.20 per YEAR in electricity (people who have these bulbs and choose to turn them off during the day- it is more a matter of your OCD than any actual monetary savings).
You may feel better about not "wasting" electricity during the day by turning them off, but in reality you are really using no electricity at all with a bulb that uses .8 watts, and the tradeoff in safety the one day you forget to turn the light back on at night, and you walk into something, or fall and hurt yourself is NOT worth it by any stretch of the imagination). I just installed one at the bottom of a two story staircase and it is so bright it lights up the hallway on the second floor. The other one is in the kitchen at entrance to the house and it will make it easier to both find my way around after entering the house before I find the switch to turn a main light on, and when I make my way down to the kitchen for a late night snack.
If you are a landlord, protecting yourself from liability is one of the major things you have to worry about. Placing lights like these throughout the property will ensure that you have afforded at least the minimum degree of lighting of your property to try to ensure that it is a safe environment. The fact that you can leave them on at all times without affecting your electric bill is a huge bonus, so it certainly can't hurt.
Bottom line- these light use almost no electricity at all, and they are way brighter than you think they should be.

I have had these for quite a while now without any problems in a standard nightlight with a photocell. These are much better than the cheaper LED nightlight bulbs that are sold in drugstores.Customer Review: Bright and Energy Efficient
Summary: 5 Stars
While it costs more than a "regular" night light bulb, it's also brighter, gives a nice, white light, and will make up for the cost in longevity and energy savings. I also love that it doesn't heat up. Highly recommend and will purchase again!Customer Review: Bright night light
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered this because I felt guilty about having a 7 watt night light bulb burning all night long, but needed a light for when guests spent the night. I've owned it for several weeks now and it has exceeded my expectations for a LED light. It is bright and casts a slightly bluish glow. It may be too bright for use in a bedroom, but for hall or bathroom it's excellent. And, you even get to feel self-righteous for saving the electricity.Customer Review: Bright, Blue and White
Summary: 5 Stars
If you have a night light, this bulb is all but a must-buy. The brightness is quite good for an LED and it pays for itself in electricity savings in about a year.
I've had some LED bulbs like the Westinghouse Nanolux 3-Watt G19 LED Bulb which I thought were great for porch lights, but not bright enough for indoors, but this Nightlight Bulb seems just as bright as the little incandescent it replaced (though with a more blueish white light).
I highly recommend it.
