Love it 
2008-08-21
We have had "green guy" for several years now and it is amazing. She can fall asleep with it in bed and we don't have to worry about it getting hot and catching on fire or harming her. It has become a big part of our bedtime routine.
Daughter stays in her bed now! 2008-07-27
My 2 year old daughter was going through a rough phase where she didn't sleep through the night. She'd wake up screaming, and was unconsolable unless I was either laying in bed with her, or she was in bed with me. I was talking to my sister one day about this, and she mentioned these little lights that the kids could hold with them in bed! I researched it, and found that the Mobi Tykelights were very safe, and came highly recommended by parents of all ages of kids! So, I purchased one, and since the first night we had it, my daughter has not screamed for me at night. She calls it her "go buddy" (glow buddy), and gets it every night before she goes to bed.
The pros to this light are obvious: they're durable, kid friendly, do not get hot-to-touch, and come in a variety of fun colors (we have the pink, and it works great).
The only con is that I have to remember to plug in in every day around lunch time so it can get its 8 hours of charge time each day. But, considering what it has done to help our family, it's well worth the effort!
I'll be getting another one of these for my son when he moves to his big-boy bed!

was looking and looking for night lights. Used a few different ones and did not like them. Found this one on-line decided to give it a try. So I bought 2. One for my son and one for my daughter. They loved them. They have dimmers and timers. They are easy to use. The pink is not as bright as the blue. Very durable. They have fallen down stairs and been put in mouths. I plan on buying more for other parts of the house. Great product.
Great idea, great product, easy to use and safe for your baby! 2008-06-21
I originally bought the pink and saw and bought the orange color from babysrus. My baby girl loves her tyke light. The pink is a little too bright for her when we are trying to get her to sleep so she is using the orange exclusively. I set it in her crib and she immediately stops fussing, turns towards her "buddy" and eventually falls a sleep.
I use the pink one myself, when I get up to feed her or check on her. It has been a great night light for all of us! Is easy to turn on and off, adorable to look at, is always cool to touch, easy to charge and use.
It has lasted about 9-10 hours so far. As per the directions, it is good to let the charge run low often so that the battery can have the chance to recharge. This ultimately extends the hold time or at least insures that your Tyke light will hold the said charge time.
One thing I noticed however is that the orange one we bought won't turn off when out of charge, instead it starts to blink. Worst yet, you cannot turn it off, the only way it will go off is by plugging it in. This has been happening from the day we brought it home. The pink one is not like that. I think that some units may be defective, so it may be a good thing to contact the seller and let them know if you are having issues (not charging well, blinking when low and not going off etc.).
I have dropped both of them quite a few times and they have held up super (not recommended though), the pink one did split in half once and I was able to snap it back together and it still works great.
All in all, a fantastic product! Our baby girl is mesmerized by it and has helped me immensely to transition her to her crib! I would give it 6 stars if I could ;-)
Experiment with different colors so that you can find what works for your baby/child.
if you're particular about the color...

When it glows it's not the purply color seen sometimes online but a lit-up neon pink type color; in a dark room it almost glows red. the radiant light isn't very bright but the object itself is dark neon pink. It's fun but not great for sleep -- think Seinfeld's episode where Kramer had the red neon light flashing outside his room and was going crazy! We also have the lavender one -- a much more tranquil, light color when lit, lighter than pictured online. If you want a gentle night-time light for a girl's room, the lavender would be the better choice!

Fun, but poor quality

My son loves to play with this light, but when it comes to comforting his fear of the dark, it's pretty useless. My daughter has a yellow one that works great, but the blue one has always been very dim, the light just doesn't get through the dark color of the plastic as well. The battery life is not as advertised either, this light has always lasted a maximum of 6 hours. After just a few short months, I'm back at amazon looking for a replacement.
Fun product/Beach Audio has great customer service

I wanted to rate this product with five stars. My six month old does love the glow of the light, and I find it fun myself. However, I thought I was ordering the unit with the base, as that was what was pictured. I was very disappointed to find that I received the one that plugs directly into the unit. I emailed Beach Audio to find out why I got the wrong one. They discovered that there is a mix up with listing and picture. I was told that it will be fixed with Amazon, and I was offered a postage paid return label for shipping it back. I am choosing to keep the light I have. Be aware of that one detail, but if something does go wrong, the people at Beach Audio will take care of it! :)
Mobi tyke light blue 2008-02-19
This light is good at first. It then all of a sudden was really dim after a month of use. I could not longer get it back to the brighter light. I charge it all the time also. I think that is also doesn't last 10 hours.
Great product and excellent customer service 2008-02-15
I bought this as a gift for my daughter for Christmas, and from the moment she saw it, she loved it! After about a month and a half, it stopped working though, and I did not have any of the original packaging so the company it came from online wouldn't take it back. I emailed customer service at Mobi directly to see about getting a replacement, and they sent one (had it in only 3 days) before I even sent the old one back. Come to find out, the light was fine, but the charger was broken and didn't charge it up anymore. Kudos to the TykeLight and even more kudos to the friendly and excellent people at Mobi customer service.
