Battery-powered cupboard lights like these sit in the same space as stick-on LED bars from brands such as OxyLED and Mr Beams, aimed at adding task lighting without running new wiring. This Daphomeu 5 pack is rechargeable over USB C and includes motion sensing, so it suits kitchens, pantries and wardrobes where you want light only when you open a door or walk past.

Who are these lights for?

Anyone who wants quick, low-commitment lighting. Motion mode is useful for late-night trips to the kitchen, while the dimmable output helps avoid glare when the lights are mounted at eye level under wall units. Rechargeable power means no ongoing AAA costs, but it also means you will need to top them up depending on how often the sensor triggers.

• 5 separate lights, useful for spreading coverage across multiple cupboards
• USB C charging, easier to share cables with newer phones and tablets
• 42 LEDs per light, aimed at more even illumination across a worktop
