Two years ago I reviewed the SnapPower SnapRays Guidelight outlet cover night light and am still using this product throughout my home. SnapPower has recently released a new version of this outlet cover night light that has been designed with child safety in mind. It’s the SafeLight night light outlet cover and it features sliding outlet covers that help prevent electrical shocks when kids try to stick their fingers or objects in the outlets. The night light feature has also been updated to allow for the LED brightness to be adjusted. It can be set to High, Low, Off and Automatic. All of SnapPower’s outlet cover products are easy to install by removing your existing outlet cover and snapping the new one in place which draws power from the existing wiring without batteries or requiring needed. The SnapPower SafeLight is available now for $17 for one and up to $140 for a 10 pack. Visit snappower.com for more info.

That’s a great idea for families with inquisitive young children!
Our girls yanked off all of our outlet covers in no time. They never saw the need to stick anything into the outlets, though, so we never put the covers back on.
I can remember sticking the prongs of a keyholder in an outlet when I was little. Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzap!
I can remember improperly gripping (forefinger touching both prongs) the plug of an AC-powered slot car system and getting zapped. Those were the good old days, when we learned safety the hard way.
I purchased the original SnapRays Guidelights years ago via their Kickstarter campaign. They still work great and we get a lot of positive comments from guests. They were super easy to install, as well.
