Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program In our area it seems like our power fails every time the wind blows. While the powers that be work on solving that problem, it's very wise to be ready for it to happen again. The first thing I notice in a power outage is, it's dark! I love the idea that it comes on automatically when the power fails. This system is very simple to install. I will probably order another one or two.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I got his second remote unit to go with an existing standard home starter set. I wanted this one to go on another circuit and had no problem programming 2 different remotes to turn on their own individual emergency light. Just flip the tiny switch inside the battery compartment and you're good to go. Don't let the pics fool you, however; this is a very mediocre flashlight, in and of itself. Doesn't light up very much or reach very far. But as an emergency light, or even visual power outage alert, this is pretty good. Only lights up though; no audible alert. But for my specific application in this instance, that turned out to be a good thing. Feels nice in the hand and seems like a good build while still remaining cool and trim looking. Nice overall.

Best Deals for Mr Beams MB220 ReadyBright Wireless Power Outage LED Lighting

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program After Hurricane Irene last year, and previous good experiences with other Mr. Beams motion-activated lights, we decided to invest in this Mr. Beams ReadyBright Wireless Power Outtage System.

For those who already have other Mr. Beams motion activated products, this ReadyBright series uses the same super-bright LEDs and magnifying lens. The only difference is that this ReadyBright system does not not contain a motion-activated sensor but instead has a remote sensor. Both the ReadyBright and the original motion-activated will only turn on in the dark.

The main difference between the two is that when the power goes out unexpectedly, this particular unit sends a wireless signal to the other Mr. Beams ReadyBright series lights in your house to turn themselves on. This base unit also doubles as a remote control to individually activate/deactivate individual ReadyBright series lights that it is directly pointed at. This is great if you are awake and are at home. The main problem with this feature is that it will run the battery down from the lights being on continuously all night if you are not at home to switch off the ones you don't need. So if you will be away from home on vacation or for other long periods of time, it's best to unplug and deactivate this "base unit" as it is the one that automatically sends the remote signal to the other ReadyBright series lights.

In contrast, the regular Mr. Beams motion-activated lights will only turn themselves on if some moves in front of them in the dark.

Overall, we mainly plug in the ReadyBright base unit during hurricane season or if the weather is bad enough that a power outtage could be expected. During those times when there is a power outtage and we are home, this is an excellent system to have as it automatically lights up itself so that you can easily find it in the dark, as well as automatically sending a remote signal to other ReadyBright lights to turn themselves on.

This unit worked perfectly during Hurricane Sandy and in the snowstorm that followed as well. We use both this unit along with other ReadyBright lights and the original Mr. Beams motion activated lights both at home and in our RV.

Highly recommended.

Honest reviews on Mr Beams MB220 ReadyBright Wireless Power Outage LED Lighting

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Very useful product that every home should have.

Where I live, we have frequent power outages when it storms and we have designated spots in the house with flashlights and lamps and matches. However with an infant, when the power goes, it's hard to navigate all of that.

This item works well because it lights up and you can go towards it, you can unplug it and use it as a flashlight to help you find your way in the darkvery handy if you have to navigate stairs.

Highly recommended!

We will be purchasing more detectors.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is a handy little gadget for' just in case', if you do not have frequent power outages and a wonderful help, if your power does go out regularly. It makes me wish we had outlets near our stairwells as a safety measure.

When your power goes out, it immediately lights up which will allow you to walk around without stumbling or falling over things. As soon as you unplug it, it becomes a flashlight, which does have an off and on button. The plug will fold up into a space in the body of the light. It makes an adequate flashlight to get around. While it is plugged in and your power is functioning there is a small green light to let you know it is charging.

It's a good item to keep one unhurt in power outages and helpful in those moments of sudden darkness.
