The Blue LED "Blue Waterfall" Nightlight is an LED nightlight. What more can I say about it?

It features a blue LED firing upward into a "waterfall"-shaped transparent acrylic piece.

The nightlight is ready to use as soon as you remove it from the package. Remove it from the package by lifting one corner of the plastic on the front of the package, and then remove the nightlight.
Then, to borrow a phrase from a TV commercial, "plug it in, plug it in!"



Since this product is designed to be operated from 110-120VAC, this section can be skipped.



This is an LED nightlight, not a flashlight. So I won't slam it against a steel rod or against the corner of a concrete stair, try to drown it in the can, stomp on it, run over it, or subject it to other indecencies that a flashlight might be subject to.

The nightlight is probably not very water-resistant, but it should have some minor degree of splash-resistance. So if you plug it in near a tub (in a GFCI outlet), I don't think a few drops of water splashed onto it will do it any harm.

It should also be able to withstand a short drop to the floor, but I don't believe it is TOO durable. So please try not to step on it if you find it on the floor; it probably wouldn't like that very well.

The nightlight has one blue LED in it near the base. This LED is shone into the plastic shape above that.

This nightlight has a UL holographic sticker on it, but the power requirement/usage ratings are not embossed anywhere on it.
I don't believe it consumes a lot of power, so you need not be concerned about using it 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year (366 days for leap year, of course).

Since this is a nightlight with a set purpose, I don't have a whole lot more to say about it.
In fact, those photographs and spectrographic analyses directly below may very well be "it".
