Know before you buy
Yes, the device features a flexible, patent-pending adjustable arm designed to grip the rim of virtually any toilet bowl securely.
No, the IllumiBowl is equipped with both a motion sensor and a light-sensitive sensor. It only activates when it detects movement in a dark room, ensuring it stays off during the day or when the bathroom lights are on.
You have full control. You can choose to lock the device onto one of the eight available colors or set it to cycle through the entire spectrum.
Because the unit is positioned on the exterior rim of the bowl, it stays clean easily. You can simply wipe it down with a damp cloth or a standard bathroom cleaning wipe.
The IllumiBowl is battery-powered, though the exact lifespan depends on your usage frequency and the quality of the batteries used. It is designed to be energy-efficient by only activating when motion is detected in the dark.
