I decided to put these on my stairs because they aren't as bright as our hallway light but they give off enough light so you don't trip and can see where you are going. They don't shine too bright so they don't wake anyone up at night when I walk up or down the stairs.  I love the fact that they are wireless and only need batteries. These are really great because you don't have to use a remote or tap them to turn them on. The lights turn on as soon as you get near them.
