Leave nightlights on in unoccupied house?

Would you leave these on in an unoccupied house?

I'm wondering if they might be a bit cheap.

I mean in terms of safety. They would be on 24/7.

I think they'd be safe enough but it's a pointless exercise.

A sure sign there’s nobody home, along with closed gates.

The link says they turn off during the day.

Most of those type of lights are made in China so it doesn't matter where you buy them.

I'd prefer lights that turn off and on at random times.

Smart bulbs better. Can randomly activate from an app as well as schedule.

Regular lights hooked up to smart plugs. Then you can set up a few on and off times for each individual light on an app so there is some logical flow like living room and downstairs are on in the evening and turn off at night, when bedrooms go on for an hour or two.
