This IKEA Smart Motion Sensor Light Solved My Dark Coat Closet Woes — It's Tiny, Bright, and Works Well, but Takes a Little Set-up

There are a million ways in which smartphones have revolutionized our daily lives, but the feature that I get the most consistent use out of? The flashlight. How many times would I have been defeated while trying to find something in too-dark cupboards, cabinets, and closets without a light easily to hand?

Of course, it's far from ideal — so a solution to the problem I've been keen to find. At the same time, I've been investing in some of IKEA's smart sensors recently, and I picked up IKEA's MYGGSPRAY wireless motion sensors to test out. I, particularly, wanted a solution for my understairs coat cupboard, which I often spend too long searching for a certain jacket, or pair of shoes.
