Costco’s Cordless Wall Sconces Make Installing Accent Lighting So Easy – House Digest





How can you go to Costco and just come out with bulk foodstuff when they sell so many other marvels? Let us introduce you to their wireless rechargeable LED wall sconces by Globe Electric. Stylish, easy to install, and endlessly versatile, you can hang these lamps nearly anywhere indoors. If there’s a dark wall spot in your space that’s not wired for electricity, this sleek pair will be a great fit. What’s more, they’ll only set you back $39.99. Other sconce sets with similar looks and features are available for nearly twice the price. So, for brightening spaces easily and cheaply, this creative lighting idea is a win.

Each set comes with two lamps, hanging hardware, and a charging cord. The lights are dimmable and rechargeable, and depending on which of the three power settings you use, these sconces can last from 10 to 18 hours per charge. At just a bit over 1 pound, a couple of appropriately-rated Command strips would hold each lamp for damage-free hanging, perfect for dorms or apartments. But, if you’re free to make as many wall holes as you want, hang them securely with the included hardware.

This pair of sconces may be the right light fixtures to boost your living room or hallway. Or, flank a mirror in a bedroom, bathroom, or foyer with the two lamps. You can even mount them on squared-off support posts in a basement that would be otherwise impossible to use for lighting. They can also make spaces, like a lightless closet, more functional.

Limitations and other options

Tiny price tags often indicate poor quality. Is that the case with the Costco wireless wall sconces?  Unfortunately, this product doesn’t have enough reviews to get a good idea of how it holds up over time. However, the manufacturer offers a one-year, limited warranty that should give buyers some reassurance. Keep in mind, rechargeable lamps can be a pain to remember to plug in. You’ll also need to plan ahead as and it takes 2½ to 3 hours for this product to fully charge.

When you’re choosing the perfect lighting for your space, one of the most important considerations is what you’ll be using it for. These cordless wall sconces are not ideal for bedside reading. At 250 lumens, they are not likely to be strong enough for reading comfortably. If you want to save your eyes some strain, spring for an upgrade. The Yansun wireless rechargeable wall sconces from Home Depot will give you a higher bulb strength at $66.99 for a pair.

If you’re in the market for more powerful or metallic cordless lighting, check out this $80 set with a long-lasting charge from Illuminating Modern Design. Poplight also makes lightweight rechargeable sconces in six colors for $85 that you won’t need any tools to hang. For a modern farmhouse look, Nunu Lighting‘s $130 Loft black cone lamp set is dimmable, rechargeable, and comes with a remote. With no drilling required to hang any of these options, you can quickly add the right accent light fixture anywhere in your home.
