The MediAcous night light is a rechargeable egg-shaped silicone lamp that turns on with a tap on the top and dims by holding your hand there, with no buttons to find in the dark. It runs a warm white mode for feedings and a separate cycle of seven RGB colors for a child who wants to pick one, and it has a memory function so it returns to the last setting instead of starting bright. A one-hour timer shuts it off on its own. Battery life runs roughly 100 hours at the dimmest setting and about 5 hours at full brightness, so most parents charge it weekly. Being cordless is the real point: it moves from the nursery to the hallway to a toddler bed without hunting for an outlet. Best fit: night feedings, diaper changes, and kids who want something to hold at bedtime.

Pros

  • Tap on and hold to dim, so you never hunt for a switch in the dark
  • Cordless and rechargeable, moves room to room without an outlet
  • Memory function returns to your last dim setting instead of blasting full brightness
  • Soft silicone shell is safe for a toddler to carry to bed

Cons

  • At full brightness the battery only runs about 5 hours, so it is a night light rather than a lamp

Frequently asked questions

How long does a charge last?

Roughly 100 hours on the dimmest warm setting and about 5 hours at maximum brightness. Most people using it for night feedings charge it about once a week.

Is it bright enough to change a diaper by?

Yes on the warm white setting turned up. It is intentionally not bright enough to light a whole room, which is the point for night wakings.

Can a toddler hold it or take it to bed?

The shell is soft silicone and it runs cool, so it is commonly used as a bedtime comfort light. It is still an electronic with a battery, so supervise young children with it.

Does it stay on all night?

It can, but there is also a one-hour timer if you want it to shut off on its own after the child falls asleep.
