Safety note: closets hold clothes, paper, and other materials that burn. Use lights rated for the way you power them, keep bulbs and fixtures away from fabrics, never exceed the wattage rating on a fixture, and look for a UL or ETL mark. Charge battery lights only with the cable provided, keep batteries and small parts away from young children, and stop using a light that swells, leaks, or gets hot. Hardwired lights should be installed with the breaker off, by a licensed electrician if you are not experienced. Listings differ; we describe what each maker lists.
