FROM showering less to ditching tumble dryer, the cost-of-living crisis has seen people using different methods to save money.
But now, according to LADBaby, there is another hack that will help you with bills – and people have been saying they will never put their lights on again.
The popular YouTube content creator, LADBaby, recently posted a hack to his 1.1 million followers, in a five minute video titled 'When Dad hacks lighting in the energy crisis'.
In the clip, he cleverly arranged motion-sensored lighting – typically used outdoor – inside his kitchen, instead of the more common alternative of turning on the kitchen lights.
''If we don't move, it'll go off. But then when we walk into the kitchen at night, it'll come on.
''We don't have to turn the lights on.''

The unique method, he demonstrated, was enough to provide a powerful light throughout the space.
The best part? Because it's charging up through the sun during the day, it's essentially free light.
The sensor lights, he revealed, cost him just £15 at Home Bargains and they're able to be removed and placed into any other room you want.
Sharing the hack, LADBaby added that you don't even need the sun to charge it – as long as there's enough light outside, the sensor lights will power up.
