This toilet nightlight will help you out during that midnight bathroom trip
LONDON -- Getting up for a wee in the middle of the night can feel like traversing an obstacle course in complete darkness.
Keeping the lights off lest you wake your housemates or bedfellows -- and incur their wrath -- can wreak havoc; from peeing on the floor to injuring yourself on bathroom appliances.

But, you can finally put all that behind you. Illumibowls -- new bathroom nightlights that attach to your toilet -- have just launched in the UK and they could spell the end of peeing in the dark.
The Illumibowl is both light-sensitive and motion-activated, so it only comes on when you walk into your bathroom during the night.
It comes equipped with nine colour options -- single colour or colour rotate -- and it can be clipped into the underside of the toilet seat of any type of toilet.
Funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign, the product is available at Firebox.com for £19.99.
