If your home is like ours, the builder didn’t put lights in the closets. I’ve always found the closets dark and you need to use the light on your phone to see what’s in the corner. Let me show you how I added lights to our front hall coat closet without any wiring or switches and how you can bring light to your dark closets.

I loathe managing rechargeable batteries. How often do these need to be recharged? How many times can they be recharged? Are the batteries removable/replaceable? As an alternative, why not just use an ordinary lamp in the room, that shines light into the closet?

I don't have enough time with these lights to answer how often they need to be recharged or how many times they can be recharged. It will depend on how often you go into that closet. I like them because they do not require any wiring and can be adjusted easily to shine where needed. The challenge with a lamp is that it does not shine from above in the closet so it leaves some areas still dark. You also have to turn the lamp on where these come on with motion. Different solutions will work for different people and I've found this one works for us.

>upgradeyourhomediy : For how many amp-hours is the battery rated? Is the battery user-removable/replaceable? Is there a way to determine the battery's charge level?

>upgradeyourhomediy : Doesn't light "shining from above" leave _more_ areas dark than light shining from behind the person looking into the closet? A camera flash illuminates everything the camera can see, but light from the overhead sun causes a shadow under the subject's nose.
