Product Information

A fake TV light is a relatively cheap device which is designed to replicate an operating TV in the dark. Deters criminals - These outdoor sensor lights will detect motion from intruders and normally scare them away due to them being visible, this makes them a great device to protect your home and family at night.

Overall, this Steinel best outdoor motion sensor light is one of the best lighting options on our list thanks to its easy installation and range of adjustability for its outdoor motion sensor and lighting, allowing you to have more control over your device.PIR stands for the passive infrared sensor. These sensors can detect changes in temperature which makes them ideal for detecting body heat from intruders and notifying you when someone is near your home. One slightly important matter to consider however is what to do about your curtains or blinds. Most of us tend to draw the curtains after dark, because we don’t want the wrong type of person to be able to see the things that could be stolen, such as the insecure flat screen TV hanging on the wall or the laptop on the coffee table! This is where your neighbours come in very useful, which is why you must return the favour and buy them nice gifts when you’re away on holiday.

Yes but only over a long period will you notice any weather damage on your outdoor light. For better protection against the elements its ideal to look for an outdoor light that has an IP rating against water and weather. One of the essential specs to consider in your model is the area of the place you need to be illuminated and secured; if you have a larger garden you might want to invest in very bright light with a large range of motion or put more than one outdoor light in the same area. This depends on the size of the area you are planning to illuminate. Driveways may require over 70 feet of motion detection to illuminate a large area, a front porch on the other hand may be fine with a 5 feet distance.Timers with sensors: these work by sensing when there is no motion in a room or when someone enters a room to turn lights off automatically.

Brightness - You should make sure your best motion sensor light is bright enough to alert you when it detects motion and give enough visibility at night in the area you need. However, some people want to avoid annoying there neighbours at night or prevent startling wildlife, so you must get the right level of brightness for your needs. This depends on where you want to be alerted and illuminate around your home. Some placement ideas are; garages, driveways, entryways, or unsafe places that are not visible during the dark. One of the most important things you can do to reduce your chances of burglary when you have gone out for the evening (or are away on holiday) is to make your home look occupied even though it isn’t. Evidence of occupancy is one of the main reasons why burglars don’t target certain houses. That said there are still some who will break into an occupied house, but this tends to be houses that have been left insecure after the occupiers have gone to bed, allowing them to get in and out very easily and quietly. Installation process - Installation of your motion sensor lights will depend on if they are solar lights, battery lights or wired in models, you should make sure this process is easy and not too complicated.No, technically these outdoor light models do not need a switch as they come on automatically when they sense motion, however, some may come with a continuous switch or on/off option.

The only downfall to these lights is that if they are positioned near a path they may be set off continuously and alert you to nearly every single movement that passes. Range of motion detection - The best outdoor lights have adjustable motion range, but if not you should make sure your outdoor motion light has a good angle of range and sensor mode distance to detect all motion in the area you need at night.Feature-wise the outdoor light comes with a 180-degree infrared motion sensor and can detect motion within a range of up to 12m. The light sensor further has a stay-on time setting of between 8 seconds-35 minutes and a twilight function rating of 2000lx.
