Hallway sensor lamp that lights the way before you reach for a switch

Shaped like a slim handheld torch, mounted flat against the wall. Walk within three meters and it comes on by itself; step away and it goes dark again. In motion mode a single charge lasts for months of ordinary use.

Why choose this hallway sensor lamp?

It handles the short trips you do not want to light the whole house for. The wood and acrylic body looks like an object rather than a fixture, which helps in a hall you actually walk through.

Auto mode: the sensor covers three meters across a 120 degree arc and switches on for you.
Months per charge: the 500 mAh cell and 1W LED stretch a long way in motion mode.
Magnetic backing: pull it off the mount to charge, then put it straight back.
Wood and acrylic: a warm timber shell with a diffusing acrylic face.
No cabling: nothing to run down the wall and nothing to wire in.

Walnut or ash, depending on what the rest of the hall is made of.

Mount it about waist height on a staircase so the treads catch the light. It works the same way in a bathroom, a landing or a walk-in closet, anywhere indoors that a wall switch is in the wrong place. At 180 x 25 mm it takes up about as much wall as a thermometer.
