RECHARGEABLE LED LIGHT BULBS: BE PREPARED WHEN THE POWER GOES OUT

If you have never seen these, you might be unsure of what rechargeable LED light bulbs are. A "rechargeable" bulb is what?

These, however, charge automatically as you use them. They fit into a standard light fixture and function just like ordinary LED bulbs while also charging while in use.

The bulbs are aware of power outages.and hurry up! In the event of a power loss, you are not left in the dark.

Additionally, they may be taken out of the standard fixtures and used manually as flashlights, or they can be screwed into the specific hooks and hung as lanterns. Brand-specific information varies, however the majority of them claim to run for between 4 and 8 hours on a charge. Although I believe we have seen them run longer than that; I didn't bother to time them, these that I purchased are on the shorter end, at 4 inches.

PLUGGIN IN/CHARGING THE LAMPS

Surely there must be a catch? Okay, sort of. These plug into a typical fixture and function largely as expected, with the exception that when you flip the switch off, they frequently briefly come back on. It can be confusing if you weren't anticipating it, but it's not a huge concern.

The fact that you typically cannot connect them into any "special" fixtures or circuits, such as those with two-way switches and dimmers, is a bigger problem. You may need to experiment with timers and remote controllers as well; they may not work properly.

Why? The lights are wired to "know" the difference between a circuit that has been interrupted (you've turned the switch to "off") and a circuit that isn't receiving power (the power is out, or perhaps if the circuit breaker is flipped). The "fancier" circuits' complexity may cause misunderstanding, and the bulb might not turn on and off at the proper, regular intervals. (Homeschoolers, use that as an opportunity to explain how circuits function to your students.)

They are generally just as easy to use as other bulbs when using them just as conventional bulbs, though.

(One more tip: I like to ensure at least one of these is somewhere readily accessible, in case I want to take it out to use it).

HOW ABOUT AFTER THEY'VE BEEN CHARGED?

These bulbs can be used as flashlights or lanterns after they are charged, in addition to the fact that you can rely on them to turn back on in the event of a power outage. There are a few easy ways to accomplish this.

The hooks offer an additional method of touch with, well, that contact. You can hang the light bulb up if you screw the hook onto the end of it.

But there is also a push-button switch on the outside of the hook "base."

We've actually been switching out a few of these bulbs because the light fixtures in our living room are temporarily damaged (it's a long story), and it produces a surprising amount of light. One of the bulbs is in a lamp that is charging, and the other is being used as a lantern.

I'm very confident that once charged, these specific rechargeable LED light bulbs last longer than four hours. The amount of light does, however, dim very soon. Just two hours after turning it on, it's considerably less light.

(Let me be crystal clear: I'm referring to when it's operating on its own battery power. There is no fading or time restriction when inserted into a socket like a conventional bulb; it simply operates as a regular bulb.)

MY OUTCOME

I don't know how long these light bulbs will last because I've just had them for about a month. However, I've been really happy with their actual performance thus far and think they were a wise buy. These are undoubtedly a good idea to keep on hand in case of power outages or other emergencies.
