It's a small plug-in light that switches itself on the second your power goes out. Here's why over 400,000 of them are already sitting in American hallways, bedrooms and bathrooms.
Your guide:
the Backup Light. He'll
take it from here.
Most blackouts start the same way: a flicker, then black. With a flashlight, you still have to find it, in the dark, and hope the batteries work.
The Backup Light senses the moment power to the outlet is cut and switches on automatically. Nothing to find, press or flip. The room is lit before you've even stood up.
On a normal night it's a soft night light for the bathroom or hallway. When the grid drops it becomes a power failure light. Pull it off the wall and it's a flashlight.
One small light does the job of three, so it earns its outlet every single day.
When the lights go out, someone has to walk to the breaker box, check on the kids, or head down to the basement.
Just lift the Backup Light out of the outlet and the top beam lights your way. No hunting through the junk drawer.
While it's plugged in, it keeps itself topped up. A full charge gives up to 3 hours of light in an outage, and it recharges in 8 to 10 hours once power is back.
No more buying packs of batteries every storm season, and no more flashlights that are dead the one night you need them.
In an outage, most of us grab our phones and switch on the flashlight. That drains the one device you need to call family, check the outage map or reach help.
With a Backup Light in every room, your phone stays in your pocket, charged.
For older parents and grandparents, a dark hallway at 2 AM is a real risk. One misstep on the way to the bathroom can change everything.
Plugged into the hallway and bathroom, the Backup Light makes sure the path is never dark, even when the power is out.
Few things are scarier to a child than waking up to a room that's suddenly pitch black.
Plug one in the kids' rooms and the glow stays on through the outage, so nobody wakes up scared and nobody has to come running.
Emergency gear usually ends up hidden in a closet because it's ugly. The Backup Light is a slim 2.25" × 4.5" white unit with a retractable plug.
Press it into any standard outlet and you're done. That's the whole installation. Right now, Prepared Hero™ is offering bundle savings with free shipping, so you can cover every room at once.
