Bedroom Motion Sensor Light – Strips That Make Your Bed Glow!

One thing I cant stand is when Im in bed sleeping and the wife turns on the light to go to the bathroom or to find something. It is a difficult situation as she does need to be able to see to find what she’s looking for, only if it was less of a distraction to me!

Well, with a motion sensor LED Light strip; she can now get out of bed and have enough light for her to see what she’s doing and where she’s going without disturbing me. These strips are great as they gently light up the room enough so that people can see what’s going on but soft enough that it doesnt disturb anyone sleeping.

The LED motion sensor strips, while designed for the bed, they can also be used in places like closets, wardrobes, hallways and even in the bathroom and kitchens.

They come with a clever PIR motion detection sensor and you can also control the duration of the light and the sensetivity of the sensor.
