"Go/Be out like a light" = tắt nhanh như ánh sáng xoẹt qua vậy -> cụm từ này nghĩa là ngủ nhanh chóng, ngủ thiếp đi, vừa ngả lưng đã ngủ rồi.

Ví dụ
I return to using the lotion for the remainder of the week: on night six, I go out like a light, while on the seventh, after a particularly stressful day, I struggle to fall asleep – maybe this would’ve been longer if I hadn’t used the lotion, who knows?

“The first night I trialled (thử nghiệm) the cream I didn’t get in until 3am. I was out with friends so I thought I’d go out like a light. The instructions said to rub it into my neck, shoulders and legs, which was a bit of a pain when I just wanted to brush my teeth and hop between the sheets.

This is tricky (nan giải). Stan Dutton, C.P.T. and coach for personal training platform Ladder, explains that it really depends on the individual. Some people may need to cut off exercise three or four hours prior to bed because it makes them too alert (tỉnh táo) to sleep; others can go out like a light shortly after exercising.
