We've just bought a new wall light for our sons room to use as a
nightlight.
I've put a 7W tungsten pigmy bulb in, but it is still a little
brighter than I'd like.
Can you get even lower power SES fitting bulbs than 7W?

Look for an LED one - they're usually dim enough. And should have a long
life.

From time to time, I see 1W LED SES lamps. They're remarkably
useless, but you may have just found a use for them. Mostly
they are coloured.

How about
http://www.ryness.co.uk/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductID=11611 which
possibly has a little lower light output, though I have not bothered
to look for figures to check.

What's a "nightlight" ? Comforting glow, or enough to stop you
tripping over the furniture?

My only LED nightlight that's enough to see by dimly is home-made. A
yellow-orange Osram from Ikea, with the LEDs swapped for something
modern from ultraleds.co.uk. Despite buying a lot of nightlights in
the last year, this is the only one.

For comfort, I like the Lidl one with the colour-changing fishtank in
it 8-)

Ikea do tiny SES CFL bulbs down to 4W (fragile bare tube) or 5W for
candles with a glass bowl over them.
