Bedside Lamp On Off Switch with Outlets
Have you ever sat in bed and then needed to get out just to turn off the lights? Or do you want lamps that are easier to use on the side of your bed? One clever electrical upgrade is installing a light switch right next to your bed and at your nightstand height. Along with a light switch, go ahead and add a power supply for deceives and table lamps right next to your bed. Bedside switches can help provide you access to you bedroom lights without the need to get out of bed. This isn’t just good for convenience but can help in the event there is an emergency.
USB Outlets

Consider adding a USB outlet next to your bed, in your kitchen, or in a home office. USB outlets are convenient and make charging your devices easier.
Automatic Lights
Areas with inconvenient light switches such as closets, laundry rooms and kitchen where you often have your hands full, consider installing automatic lights. Motion sensor lights can turn on when you and others enter the room and turn off when you are gone. Not only are they convenient they help improve efficiency. Often lights get left on and forgotten. This affects your energy bill. There are many places where you can find that automatic lights can help make your life easier.

Extension cords can be hazardous and unsightly when you create your holiday display.

Not only does exterior outlets on the eaves of your home help improve the look of your light show, it also makes it safer. You no longer have cords running along the ground where you can trip over them. Additionally the cords are protected from wind and rain as they are safety under the roof of the home.
