Bathroom LEDs

In case of power outage, I placed some 5v LEDs around the counter, and a single segment to be a “night light.” Here are the LEDs I purchased:

I chopped off the last segment, and it became the night light. I made a simple circuit board, and installed a two-switch in a standard electrical box near the toilet paper dispenser. The circuitry is inside the counter cabinet, visible by taking out the upper right drawer.

I 3D printed a circuit board holder, LED segment holder, and a 4-AA battery holder.

The single-segment LED draws between 16 and 24 mA, depending on the voltage present. It might last 3 days. With all of the lights lit, it would probably last about 2 hours>
