Why do you need dim lights for night time? Either the corridor needs to be lit, or it doesn't. ("Corridor" suggests non-domestic premises; if you need a nightlight in a house for nocturnal bathroom visits that's different.)

Either have the lights running 24/7 (a 4 watt LED will only cost about £4 a year to run) or have PIR with a long dwell time so the lights are usually on when people are about.

A nightlight for a nocturnal bathroom visit don't even require anything
like 4W. I have an emergency light in my hallway with a green LED to
indicate the light is operational/charging. This is sufficiently bright
enough to navigate by when everything else is pitch black.
