If you're here, you probably agree that lighting transforms a space. The right lighting can make the ambiance cozy and lovely, while glaring overhead lights can feel sterile and intense. Unfortunately, many homes and apartments only offer this kind of harsh lighting. 

Enter fake sconces and rechargeable wall sconces—the game-changing, hassle-free alternatives that offer cute, functional, easy to install lighting for any space. If you're looking to elevate your home’s vibe, here’s why these options are the perfect solution.


What Are 'Fake Sconces'?

Fake sconces are decorative lighting fixtures that mimic the aesthetic and ambiance of traditional sconces, but without the hassle of hardwiring or the need for an electrician.

These non-wired sconces typically use battery power or rechargeable batteries, making them portable and perfect for renters or anyone looking to avoid making permanent changes to their walls.

Unlike traditional sconces that require drilling and electrical work, fake sconces are easy to install, often using simple adhesive or hook-and-loop strips, meaning you can transform your space without damaging your walls. Whether you want to add warmth to your living room or a cozy vibe to your bedroom, a fake sconce allows you to achieve stylish, ambient lighting with zero effort.


Why Choose a Cordless or Wireless Sconce?

A cordless sconce is another fantastic option for folks seeking flexibility and simplicity in their home lighting, but don't want the hassle of the electrical work required for traditional wired wall sconces.

Cordless wall sconces offer the same charm and elegance as traditional wall lighting fixtures but without the constraints of hard wiring. Perfect for rooms with scarce outlets, older homes with unconventional wiring, and renters who can't hardwire lighting where they want it.

Here are just a few of the reasons why cordless or wireless wall sconces are becoming a favorite among homeowners and renters alike:

  1. No Need for Outlets: Because they’re battery-powered or rechargeable, cordless sconces don’t need to be near an electrical outlet. This means endless possibilities for styling, without the constraint of staying near an outlet. 

  2. Hassle-Free Installation: Installing a cordless sconce is quick and easy, often requiring no tools at all. With Poplight, you can easily stick our patented design on your wall in seconds. And the best part, unlike other stick on wall lighting Poplight also removes in seconds, without any damage. 

  3. Portable: Moving soon? Or just like to redecorate? Poplight is perfect for those of us that like to switch up because Poplight can be reinstalled endlessly, all you'll need is a fresh pair of tape!


The Benefits of 'Fake Sconces' for Renters

For renters, making permanent changes to a space is often a no-go. Traditional sconces that require wiring and drilling holes can be a dealbreaker. However, with fake sconces, you get the high end look and feel of wall mounted lighting without the risk and expense.

Here’s why these sconces are ideal for renters:

  • No Drilling or Damage: Fake sconces can be installed without drilling into the wall, making them a perfect choice for renters who don't want to risk their security deposit.
  • Easy to Remove: With Poplight, you can remove it in seconds without damaging you wall! See how here.
