Buy some rechargeable motion lights and install them throughout your home. The benefits are many. You won’t need to turn on lights throughout the house as you make your way around. They save on electricity, particularly if someone in your home keeps forgetting to turn off the lights whenever they leave the room. They’re dim (some are adjustable) so they won’t wake you up if you need to get around in the middle of the night. They make moving around easier for your pets. Any overnight guests to your home won’t be fumbling to find light switches. When the power goes out, you won’t be left (completely) in the dark, so you won’t have to carry a flashlight around with you wherever you go. In the even that someone breaks into your home, they might think twice about it once they keep being ‘spotlighted’.
