Hi Thomas;
I had a similar situation in my kitchen when I came home
after dark. The light switch is on the hinge side of the door,
so I have to completely close it to reach for the switch, and
that leaves it pitch black in the room, even on moonlit nights.
I used two of the Dollar Tree bright white LED lawn light tops,
adhered to the South facing window at the far end of the 19ft
long room. They make it easy to see when I come into the room
with my eye adjusted for being outside at night. For walking
outside, from a well lit interior, would require multiple
times as much light, but it should be possible to do it
with multiple lawn lights. The advantage would be that
multiple light, could be spread over a wider area,
to reduce shadows. They could also be arranged
to look nice, from the street, etc.
