The Maxxima nightlight employs LED (Light Emitting Diode) technology which is revolutionizing the lighting market. Since LEDs consume 10% of the energy of incandescent lamps, this nightlight should cost no more than $0.25 a year to operate when used an average of 10 hours a day. Use it in bathrooms, kitchens, senior living quarters, vacation homes, etc. The LED in this light gives off an agreeable comfortable sky blue glow. A photoelectric eye turns the light on at dusk and off at dawn.
