Night lights can be had in various colors of illumination, as well as various intensities. I would not put a night light in the bedroom where I planned to bunker down in the event of uninvited visitors, the hall is a better location IMHO. Since there is some history of BGs pulling the power and cutting phone lines to houses they had targeted, I'd prefer to have one of the 'power failure' type night lights, that illumnates in the event of a power failure also.

Any necessary target ID needs to be done with a hand held flashlight or a weapon mounted light from the front. Contrary to frequently stated opinion, it is NOT necessary to aim a weapon directly at a potential target to illuminate said target with its weapon mounted light. There is enough peripheral light to allow target ID without direct illumination/aiming the weapon directly at the target.

JMHO, YMMV,
