I ordered my "Made for Amazon" THIRDREALITY Smart Night-Light for Echo Flex, along when I ordered the Echo-Flex. This light came early, so I had to wait until I got my Echo-Flex today!
So OK, I totally love this little light! I dearly love my Echo-Flex too! I needed these for a very small bathroom with no windows. I already had a regular nightlight in the bathroom but was concerned that when I got the Echo-Flex then both outlets would be occupied. So, when I saw this Smart Light offered when I ordered the Echo-Flex it was the perfect solution for me! Now I have the Echo-Flex, AND this very cool night-light, all set-up in my tiny bathroom, plus I still have 1 available outlet left too!
This little light has multiple colors and you can ask Alexa to change them or dim the light too. Lots of other thing you can do with it too, which I am looking forwards to exploring! I never thought a night-light could be such a super cool, fun AND very useful little light! Now I am thinking of lots of other small places I can put these, which I never considered before! I love both the Echo-Flex AND this Smart Night-Light! I got to have more of them now ;)
Update 01/21/2020:
I got several of these lights to go with all of my Echoflex Mini Smart Speakers scattered throughout my home and garage. All of these lights seem to work very well, except for the 1st one I bought. When I request Alexa to turn it a different color or to turn it off, Alexa continually responds that the light is malfunctioning. I've uninstalled it and reinstalled it several different times, It works for a day or two but then fails again. So I'm guessing it is defective. Bummer, so I'm returning it and Amazon is sending out a replacement.

Great little nightlight!
Purchased this with my Echo Flex to replace a nightlight I had in the tiny master bathroom and also give me Alexa access without eating up both outlets, giving me wires to contend with, or taking up counter space. If you've already got an Alexa account and have previously saved your wifi info to the app, this will literally set itself up. You just plug it into the Flex and it does everything for you. You can choose from 16 different color options for the light and these can be set by voice command or in the Alexa app. A few of the colors aren't that vibrant, like the Lavender option, but for the most part you have many distinct, noticeably different color options. Brightness can also be set by voice or through the Alexa app. Interestingly, the status lights that you would see on a light ring of a regular Echo also seem to display on this nightlight when it's connected to the Flex. I find that useful because the status display on the Flex itself is pretty tiny. If you find the light sensor to read the room as too bright or too dark, consider flipping the Flex upside down in the outlet as this will put the sensor on the other side. Can help if the sensor was facing a wall, mirror or a window and you want it to face the other way. The Flex will still work upside down in the US as the plug tines are both the same size and there's no ground tine. I set a Routine in the Alexa app for turning the nightlight on and off in relation to sunrise/sunset each day, and you could incorporate the light into any Routine you want. It's a great addition to the Flex!

It's well made and super easy to install and use.
Just plug in the Night Light to the USB port on the bottom of the Echo Flex and the Echo Flex recognizes it and auto enrols it into Alexa.
You can change the color of the light and control the brightness with voice commands. The light turns on automatically when it's dark without any extra programming and off when there's light.
The night light can also be triggered to run scenes, rules and schedules.
After trying it out, I've bought two more. This is a must have accessory for the Echo Flex.
Note: Thirdreality (the manufacturer) also makes a USB motion sensor plug in for the echo flex. You can't use both the night light and motion sensor together which is disappointing since you could have a motion activated light which would be cool. After using the Echo flex I wonder why Amazon didn't build a night light or motion sensor into the Flex right from the start. Perhaps they will on a Gen 2 Echo Flex. For now this Thirdreality is the only solution and it works great!

Luce Notturna per Echo Flex
Ho acquistato il prodotto il 25/04/2021, al costo di 14,99€Davide D.Luce Notturna per Echo Flex
Reviewed in Italy on April 19, 2021
Come si può vedere dalle foto in allegato, la luce arriva in una scatolina piccola e discreta, al cui interno è presente solo la stessa lucina ed un piccolo libretto delle istruzioni.
L'installazione è decisamente facile, perchè basta inserirla nella parte sottostante dell'echo flex e questa verrà automaticamente riconosciuta dal sistema, comparendo sull'app ed esendo subito utilizzabile.
Ovviamente prima di inizare ad usarla, consiglio di andare sull'app e rinominarla come preferite, così da poterla accendere e spegnere usando il nome assegnato.
Questo tipo di luce non presente un sensore di movimento, tuttavia sul lato corto vi è un piccolo cerchietto nero, che sarebbe un sensore di luminosità. In sostanza serve a percepire la quantità di luce nell'ambiente, permettendo così alla luce di accendersi o spegnersi in automatico quando rileva lo spegnimento o l'accensione della luce principale della stanza.
Utilizzandola mi sono anche reso conto che, se è vicina ad una finestra con la tapparella alzata, riesce a funzionare come se fosse un crepuscolare, perchè non appena in sole è abbastanza basso da rendere l'ambiente abbastanza scuro, questa si accende. Stessa cosa accade anche al contrario, ovvero se l'accendete la mattina presto quando il sole ancora non c'è, questa si spenge non appena sorge il sole e ne percepisce la luminosità.
Ovviamente va intesà come una luce di comodità, perchè non ha molti lumen e non è quindi in grado di poter illuminare significativamente una stanza.
Tuttavia io la uso sulla scrivania e mi risulta molto utile la sera, quando neccessito di una luce discreta per leggere magari qualcosa o cercare un oggetto sulla scrivania stessa. Risulta inoltre molto utile quando la sera spengo la luce principale ed ho bisongo di una lucetta non molto forte per fare le ultime cose prima di andare al letto.
Posso dirmi pienamente soddisfatto dell'acquisto.
Lo consiglio.
