Abstract
A safe, rotatable AC powered night light includes a retaining tab which is attached adjacent to standard AC prongs. The retaining tab can be screwed via a face plate, to a pair of standard AC receptacles thereby attaching the light to the receptacle. The light can be rotated relative to the receptacles when attached thereto. Removal of the light requires removal of the retaining screw which extends through the retaining tab into a threaded hole between the receptacles.
