This can't possibly be any more of a fire hazard than having anything else plugged into your outlet.

The internal components are at most an LED and an AC to DC step down converter on an IC. It might even be using AC LEDs, though I doubt it for this price.

A lot of ICs have some method of cutoff protection, so this might even be safer than leaving a non-circuited device plugged in.

But, if you need to be extra cautious, plug them into GFCI outlets and get a clear baby-proof outlet cover that's lined with intumescent bead.

Wherever you copied and pasted this bs from is not very accurate. We design, engineer, and manufacturer many products that are handled by both of these testing laboratories. You always aim to get UL, and if the cost to make the quality/safety measures is too expensive, you go the ETL route.

If you care about speed you submit to ETL. If you care about safety and lawsuits down the road, you go with UL. It's almost like comparing this as the special olympics vs the regular olympics. They both are technically olympics.

As someone who manufactures to UL and ETL standards let me say once again, there is a big difference. Why do people keep posting this nonsense. The testing for UL is brutal compared to ETL.

What an odd product combination. Is it for someone that's doing new construction and don't want to buy a separate night light? I mean, why is it both the cover plate and a night light? I don't understand why it's not just one or the other.

It's tamper resistant. It seems that clear plastic cover fits over the light and behind the plate, so I am assuming the plate is a special design for that cover. Haven't had a chance to pick mine up yet but will report back once I'm able to check it out.

First thing I thought lol. "Well these will be recalled in a year"
I'm sure your Toyota will have more recalls than these simple devices.

There are many reasons for colored night lights. As has been pointed out, white light affects night vision.

Most importantly it includes blue light. Which has shown reduces the ability to fall asleep. This can be a problem if you wake up in the middle of the night.

The best color for night lights is red

Didn't know I needed this and now I've ordered 20.
I'm going to put one on each power strip in every tool box.

I just picked mine up. I was surprised to see the plate included. I guess I didn't read the description close enough. If using the tamper resistant piece, it is simply a piece of plastic like blister packaging products come in. It is not substantial but would serve its purpose. The package says you can use the new plate or use with existing plate. I am planning on using only the nightlight portion as I am not worried about tampering.

Reviewer said it has light sensor. Can someone confirm it will turn off when light is on?

That can definitely be true. I forget the exact details, but there's a reason why military lights also include red. I believe it is easy for the member to see while using, but harder for the enemy to see from a distance.

I purchased these a few days ago and have them all around my ground floor for the past 3 days. They do a decent job of lighting the area below, enough to see where you're going in the dark. I like that they have different color modes but only use the white light. For the price I think they are worth it

I've always gone for these night lights [walmart.com]. They're a little more expensive @ $2 each, but the benefit here is that they can angle down. You can remove the little plastic shell on the top and turn it upside down. This helps just illuminate walkways or sinks and doesn't shine directly into your eyes.

I've literally used these for more than 20 years.
What color are lights on the Walmart ones? Thanks.

They stay off during daylight, yes
