Choosing a night light comes down to one question: how do you want it to turn on? Some here respond to touch or remote, some to motion, one to falling light levels, and one is really a drawing board that happens to glow. This guide lines up all five so you can match the trigger, the power source, and the size to the room you're lighting.

What each one actually does
13 Color Changing Night Light
13 Color Changing Night Light is controlled by touch or remote, with 13 colors, 5 brightness levels and 3 modes. The shop states it runs about 10 hours on bright mode from a full charge, with charging taking roughly 4 hours, and it has a remote-set auto-shutdown timer of 1, 2, 4 or 6 hours. It's positioned as a bedside lamp and gift item.
LED Note Board With Night Light
LED Note Board With Night Light is a different kind of product from the rest of this list — an acrylic dry-erase board with a light-up edge and a blinking mode, sold with 7 color pens and available in three sizes. The shop pitches it for kids' drawing and family messages rather than as ambient bedroom lighting, though it does use the same night-light glow effect.
Rectangle Wireless LED Motion Sensor Night Light
Rectangle Wireless LED Motion Sensor Night Light uses a PIR motion sensor that the shop says detects movement 3–6 meters away and lights up within 0.5 seconds. It installs with a 3M adhesive magnetic strip, charges via Type-C, and offers stepless dimming. It comes in four lengths (10cm, 20cm, 30cm, 50cm) and three light options (warm white, cool white, or 3-color-in-one).
LED Motion Sensor Night Light
LED Motion Sensor Night Light is also motion-activated and runs on a rechargeable lithium battery, described by the shop as useful during power outages as well as for everyday spots like bedrooms, staircases and closets. It has a round shape. The listing doesn't mention dimming, length options, or color choice.
Square LED Portable Induction Night light
Square LED Portable Induction Night light plugs directly into a wall outlet rather than running on a battery. The shop lists it at 0.5 watts and 50 lumens with a built-in light sensor that turns it on at dusk and off at dawn, and notes it still leaves the rest of the outlet free for another plug. It's sold as a 4-pack.
How they split by trigger and power
Two of the five — Rectangle Wireless LED Motion Sensor Night Light and LED Motion Sensor Night Light — turn on by sensing motion rather than light or touch. Between those two, only Rectangle Wireless LED Motion Sensor Night Light's listing mentions adjustable brightness and multiple length options, so it's the only motion-sensor light here that's described as sizeable to a specific space rather than a fixed one-size unit. Square LED Portable Induction Night light is the only one in this group that runs on mains power through a wall socket instead of a rechargeable or USB-charged battery, which matters if you don't want to think about charging at all. 13 Color Changing Night Light is the only one offering manual color and mode control via touch or remote, and LED Note Board With Night Light is really in its own category as a writable board rather than a fixed-place ambient light.
