We Wanted Proper Bedside Lighting Without Paying an Electrician
Hardwired sconces need an electrician, cut walls and cost hundreds. Here's the rechargeable wall light Australians are putting up in about a minute instead.
— Schmick, Verified Buyer
“The perfect solution for rechargeable lights inside the home. They are so versatile, easy to install & use and they look absolutely brilliant! I love them so much that I'm going to get more.”
✦The Problem
The problem isn't wanting better lighting. It's what it takes to get it.
Every beautiful bedroom seems to have them: soft wall lights either side of the bed, a warm glow over the hallway, art lit like it's in a gallery. Then you look into what it takes — an electrician, cables chased through the wall, patching, repainting — and the quote lands in the hundreds of dollars. Per light.
Renting? It's not even a conversation.
The stick-on alternatives haven't helped their own reputation either — dim, plasticky, falling off the wall by week two. So most people do what most people do: nothing. The bedside stays dark, and the big light stays harsh.
That's exactly the gap the Nova Lights LED Rechargeable Wall Light was designed to fill. Here's what makes it different.
“We had deliberated for ages about buying wall lights to light up my wife's artwork. When I saw these, I knew they'd be perfect small but effective, something to highlight her paintings but still not take over the wall. We are more than happy with them.”

Difference 01
It looks like a fitted sconce, not a sticker
The first thing people notice is what they don't notice: no cord, no bulk, no plastic shine. A matte finish in Black, White or Wood Grain, sitting flush on the wall like it was always meant to be there. It reads as considered lighting, not a workaround — which is the whole point.
“So elegant and easy to install”

Up in about a minute and it actually holds
Peel the adhesive backing, press the mount to the wall, click the light on. No drill, no wiring, no tradie. Screws are included if you'd rather, and the adhesive removes cleanly when it's time to move — designed for renters from day one.
And it holds. One customer stuck these inside a motorhome and has been shaking them down Australian roads ever since.
“Absolutely love these, great subtle lighting and a beautiful update to our older Moho without using valuable Amps when off grid. A modern touch and the adjustable ambience and direction has been a game changer for us. Also no drilling into walls, super strong adhesive which can withstand all the movement we have subjected it to while travelling Oz.”

Two lights in one, and the light always suits the moment
It's a reading light and a night light in a single unit — run them together or separately. Three colour temperatures (warm 2700K, natural 4000K, cool white 5700K), three brightness levels each, and a 360° rotating magnetic head so the light goes exactly where you want it.
“Well constructed light (with remote) which is so easy to use and fit to the wall. Three different light modes and up/down light work independently of each other. Love it!”
— Vincent L., Verified Buyer

Truly wireless. Weeks between charges.
The built-in 2500mAh battery gives up to 15 hours of light per charge — several nights of reading, or weeks of evening glow. When it's time, the light pulls off its magnetic mount and recharges anywhere via USB-C in under 3 hours. No powerpoint needed. Which is why they end up in hallways, entryways, wardrobes and — apparently — motorhomes crossing the country off-grid.
“Decided to use these bad boys on a little bedroom DIY and just WOW!!! So easy to install and look amazing.”

The LED Rechargeable Wall Light
The look of a fitted sconce. None of the wiring, cost, or holes in the wall.
