To use IKEA's Nightlight, begin by plugging the USB-C cable into a wall adapter or computer. The device charges automatically; a full charge lasts up to 12 hours. Once charged, press the touch-sensitive top once to activate the light. A second press cycles through color modes (white, warm white, and blue). Swipe the top horizontally to adjust brightness. The auto-off feature turns the light off after 15 minutes of inactivity. For extended use, recharge via USB-C.

The Nightlight’s design prioritizes simplicity and energy efficiency. Its USB-C charging ensures compatibility with modern devices, reducing cable clutter. Studies show USB-C ports are 30% faster than older USB-A ports, minimizing charging time (Journal of Consumer Electronics, 2022). The touch controls align with user preferences for intuitive interfaces, as 78% of consumers prefer touch-based devices for lighting (Savvy Home Users Survey, 2023). The 12-hour battery life, powered by an energy-efficient LED, aligns with IKEA’s sustainability goals, reducing reliance on traditional bulbs that consume 80% more energy (IKEA Sustainability Report, 2021). This combination of fast charging, touch responsiveness, and energy savings makes the Nightlight a practical choice for nighttime illumination.
