Imagine a scene where you open your closet door, and the closet magically lights up to reveal everything. Cool, right? Motion sensor lights for closets make this idea possible. These are simple lights (either puck lights or LED strips), that you can attach to the ceiling or walls of your closet. Once the setup is complete, simply open the door to see the magic.

The Amagle motion sensor light is one of the inexpensive lights on this list. And for its price, it manages to do a fairly good job. It’s a simple LED strip that you can stick to the ceiling of your closet via the 3M adhesive back. The motion sensor is quick to respond, and that’s probably one of the best things about this light.

The advantage of this LED light is its dual mechanism. You can either switch the light on/off manually. Or, you can rely on the sensor. The former comes into the picture when you need the light for a long stretch. The Amagle LED strip runs on four AAA batteries. And when triggered, the lights remain on for around 20 seconds.

The Auvon motion sensor light addresses one of the major limitations of the one above. Its sensor is inside the light’s compartment and doesn’t have a separate controller. You can attach the light via the built-in magnets and paste it on an iron surface. Or, you can stick the double-sided tape on the iron strip first.

Another advantage is that you cycle between three brightness modes and three lighting modes, depending on your preference. It uses a rechargeable battery and a single recharge buys you around 180 days of battery life (depending on your usage).

The AMIR light is the best-value automated closet light that you can buy. The company ships a pack of 6, and it’s a pretty good deal for the price. These little hockey-puck lights have an adhesive back, which lets you stick them just about anywhere.

The lights are bright enough to let you see everything. However, if you are looking for flashlight-like brightness, these are not the ones for you. If you are looking for affordable motion lights and have quite a few closet spaces to light up, these should be in your shopping bag. And hey, these are AAA battery-powered devices.

If you do not mind spending a few extra bucks, the Lithonia FMMCL light is one of your best options. It’s small and compact and can be perched about just about anywhere, including the top of your closet space.

The light is bright and should easily light up your closet space. Unlike the one above, installation is a tad challenging. Since it needs continuous power, you’ll have to install it like a typical electrical fixture. That said, the sensitivity and the brightness work as advertised.
