I have tried many and this Cooper version is by far the best.
It has a much warmer color temp than the Pass & Seymour or the Leviton.
At full power it uses .75 watts and is dimmable to 75 milliwatts or .075 watts.
Also features an on/off setting.
And an always on setting for bathrooms or dimly lit hallways.
I usually prefer Leviton to Cooper, but this receptacle combo is by far the best in its class. 5 stars.

After weeks of fighting with my children about pulling their plug-in nightlights out off the walls and then losing them, I knew I had to find a more permanent solution.First, I bought the Leviton T6525-W 15-Amp 125V AC Combination Decora Tamper Resistant Receptacle with LED Guide Light. It worked but the light wasn't bright enough for me nor my kids.
Then I bought this Cooper Nightlight and the difference was like night and day. The light shines just as bright as a plug-in nightlight, if not more. I love the features as well. It has a manual on/off setting. You can switch from Night Light mode to Guide Light mode with 3 dimming settings. To switch between modes you have to press and hold the nightlight for about 10 seconds. When you see it flashing, then you know you've switched modes.
I used the Leviton 80401-W 1-Gang Decora/GFCI Device Decora Wallplate, White and it matched up just fine.
I have 3 of these installed in each bedroom and they work like a charm. No more stumbling around in the dark or turning on room lights to check on children.
CON When you turn your lights on or off, you have to wait about 10-15 seconds before the nightlight responds. When I turn off the lights at bedtime, I constantly have to tell my children, "Wait for it...". Now it has become a game :-) We count 10 seconds and the nightlight magically appears.

I find the plug in night lights kind of tacky looking. This Cooper outlet was a nice way to have a light that looked very classy and is only on in the dark. The ability to easily adjust the brightness of the LED light is very convenient. Installation took about 20 minutes once I figured out the wiring. While I am not an electrician, I am an experienced DIY'er. There are lots of different ways to wire an outlet. Don't be surprised if the way the old outlet is wired is not the way the directions with the nightlight describe. If you are confused, someone at a home improvement center, or an online reference, can probably resolve any issues.Honest reviews on Cooper Wiring Devices TR7735W-BOX 3-Wire Receptacle Combo
I just installed mine yesterday. Good installation instructions and connections for the homeowner. The product performs just as described. The light is a little brighter than some plug in models. The light is not focused in any one direction. Continuously dimmable rather than the 3 settings the manufacturer talks about.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Cooper Wiring Devices TR7735W-BOX 3-Wire Receptacle Combo
We REALLY like this item!We have a single-gang outlet right at the top of our stairs. Previously, our upstairs hallway was dark, and our only option to have some light was to leave the large overhead light on all of the time. This item solved that. We had originally considered getting a plug-in nightlight, but none of the ones wed looked at were attractive to us. We looked at old-fashioned bulb-type nightlights, but those use much more electricity and the bulbs can get dangerously hot. We're getting the light to make the hallway safe for our children, after all!
There are a few plug-in nightlights on the market with newer LED lighting technology, but these were both more expensive, ans many didn't throw out very much illumination.
This unit was perfect for us. The light itself is better than we could have exptected it throws plenty of light, and is adjustable to 3 different light levels to suit your particular needs. It's not only energy efficient when running, but the ambient light sensor turns it off when the surroundings are bright enough that it's not necessary. And the outlet itself features tamper-resistent technology to prevent the mixing of small fingers and utility voltage.
Installation was as easy as any other outlet, and took perhaps a total of 2 minutes to remove the old outlet and install this one. I did appreciate the ability to back-wire the outlet as this makes installation even easier.
All in all, this is a great item!
