Mr Beams: Great Lights for Dorm Rooms


Wireless Environment co-founder, David Levine, went to his college reunion in May and realized that everything on campus had changed! One thing that had not changed: not enough light in any dorm room. Most dorm rooms, especially the older ones, don't have central ceiling lights, making the students responsible for any plug-in or supplemental lighting.

On a college kid's budget (or his parents'!), Mr Beams products are the perfect lighting solution. The battery operated LED light fixtures run on standard alkaline batteries and offer bright light without wires. The motion sensor technology means that the lights are only active when they detect motion--perfect to prevent stumbling around in the dark when you don't want to wake your roommates. When there's no motion present, the lights are simply 'off'.

The Anywhere Ceiling Light is a great all purpose light that can be mounted in closets, cupboards, bathrooms, alcoves--anywhere a student might need some supplemental (and affordable!) lighting. The portability of Mr Beams means that, at the end of the year, the lights get packed up and stored. Totally reusable. Put Mr Beams on your student's Supplies List.
