Rechargeable emergency lights switch on when the power goes off, and rechargeable lamps and lanterns can be moved where you need them. Check the battery type and capacity, the runtime on the brightness you will use, how you charge it (mains, USB or solar), and whether it also charges your phone. For shops, keep one at the till and one at the door, and test them monthly.
Key takeaways
- Pick a runtime that covers your usual outage.
- Solar or USB charging helps in long outages.
- Keep one at the till and one at the door.
- Test monthly.

05Frequently asked questions
How long should it last?
Look at runtime at the brightness you will use; a spec sheet may quote the longest runtime at the lowest setting.
Can it charge my phone?
Many rechargeable lamps have a USB output; check it on the product page.
Are solar lights good enough?
For gates and gardens, yes, if they get sun. Indoors, a mains-charged lamp is more reliable.
What else should I have for outages?
A mini UPS for the router, a power bank and a stocked first-aid kit.
