CASALUX Rechargeable LED Puck Lights Returning to Aldi
This post is an open thread and contains affiliate links.
EDITOR’S NOTE: Updated for 2026.
A puck is a disc made of black rubber that is used in ice hockey. A light is a device that produces illumination to brighten up a room.
As for a puck light? It’s a light shaped like … well, a puck.
Most puck lights are battery-powered, and many of them come with remotes. That gives users flexibility to place the lights wherever they need them without respect to wiring or sockets. If you’ve got an out-of-the-way spot that needs lighting or you don’t want the hassle of wiring, a puck light is a cheap way to get the job done. The downside is that batteries can drain, but batteries also don’t stop working during a power outage, so there’s that.
You can find puck lights at many hardware and big box stores. Since we all know a certain German grocer sometimes likes to imitate hardware and big box stores by way of its middle aisle, it’s maybe not surprising that puck lights have found their way onto Aldi shelves.
What We Know:
CASALUX Rechargeable Puck Lights are an Aldi Find. Each store should get one shipment, and once it’s depleted, the store won’t be getting any more unless Aldi decides to bring them back later. Aldi doesn’t ship products online, meaning that if you can’t find it in stores, you’re out of luck.
These are schedule to be in stores starting February 4th, 2026.
In 2026, the puck light set costs $14.99. That’s the same price it was when we first wrote about the lights in 2022, and that’s the same price they were in 2025.
These were previously sold under the Easy Home Aldi house brand. Neither Easy Home nor CASALUX are companies. They’re simply names Aldi puts on various home goods or lighting products, which Aldi sources from different suppliers.
Here’s more information about the lights, according to Aldi:
- Features 5 puck lights for indoor use
- Includes one remote with CR2025 battery
- Switch between warm white and RGB colors
- Features convenient USB-C charging; indicator glows red while charging and green when complete
- Ideal for bedrooms, hallways, and closets where style and functionality is needed
These puck lights have previously come with a 1-year warranty, but we don’t yet know if the 2026 lights have a warranty.
What We Don’t Know:
We haven’t yet tested these lights, so we don’t know how easy they are to use, how reliable they are, how long the batteries last, or how long the lights themselves will last. We’ve created this open thread for users to share their experiences.
Do you have experience with these lights? Let us know in the comments.
I just got a set in MI for $6.35. I will let you guys know know more after I try them out. Just figuring out where I should place them.
Rebecca, these lights are back in Aldi this week. I almost bought a pack, then thought I should check reviews. How did they work out for you? Thanks!
They work great. Easy installation.I’ve been using mine for about a year now they are great!!!! I hope they bring them back so I can purchase some for my rental units.
They’re coming back the week of October 8th, 2025.
I got mine a week ago and was very excited – have wanted illumination over my kitchen sink for awhile! Installed, charged, and ready to go … and now they don’t charge anymore. All five of them are totally dead. I don’t know what went wrong! They use the same USB-C charger as my phone, and my phone charges just fine, so I know it’s not that. I kind of want to return them, but that is a super hassle. Pretty disappointed.
I don’t have these, but if you can open one up and see what kind of rechargable battery it has, you might be able to buy and replace the batteries through Amazon. Rechargeable batteries shouldn’t be failing that quickly, but you never know with anything made in China.
Just got a set. Supplied charge cord doesnt work. Using another now. Says to give full charge before use which could take up 24 hrs. each x’s 5 pucks. omg. I have regrets buying these already.
So I opened one up, with an intent to upgrade the battery. It looks like a very low capacity AA. If you have a little soldering skill, I think you should be able to replace them with high capacity rechargeable AAs.
I bought 2 sets. Just opened one set. Do you know if you are supposed to turn the switch to on before you charge each puck?
I take that back. Not AAs, as they only have 1.2V. The 14500 rechargable battery is available (same footprint as AAs). Highest capacity I’ve found is about 2000mAh
I bought them and the lights it self are great but the remote control doesn’t work. Replace the batterie and try to fit the batterie different ways and nothing….. returned will be a difficult thing
These light are not good. I bought two sets, charged them, hung them up and left them unused for a few days. Tried to use them after the few days and they were all DEAD!
So disappointed 😞
I would tell everyone “don’t waste your money.
