Smart lights have been around for some years, helping households save money on energy bills through scheduling and mood lighting, with the option to control them remotely and instantly apply a range of fun effects. The new IKEA GÖMPYSSLING LED lighting with sensor doesn’t break this mold, but instead offers consumers a straightforward alternative that covers the basics at an attractive price point.

IKEA is no stranger to home gadgets, selling everything from motion sensors and air-quality monitors to smart plugs that enhance device functionality. The IKEA GÖMPYSSLING LED lighting with sensor echoes the quality of its existing range, from the durable build quality to the basic features found in its other smart lighting systems.

Powered entirely by battery and operable without hubs or apps, the GÖMPYSSLING LED lighting with sensor uses motion sensors to activate for 10 seconds after the last detected movement. Once activated, it emits a warm, white light at 2700 Kelvin, providing neutral illumination perfect for finding essentials around the home.

The IKEA GÖMPYSSLING LED lighting with sensor is primarily designed for use inside cupboards, with the manufacturer’s instructions indicating how the light should be angled “to illuminate the interior of furniture.” This explains its low price and bare-bones functionality, with households likely to purchase multiple lights to complete a kitchen setup.

Easy to mount and requiring no installation cables, the GÖMPYSSLING LED lighting with sensor is an affordable option for bringing much-needed light to cupboards and closets.
