FAQ

IS IT POSSIBLE TO CONNECT AN OUTDOOR MOTION SENSOR TO MY CURRENT EXTERIOR LIGHTING?

 

When you bought your house, you likely invested considerable time and effort in selecting the perfect outdoor light fixtures. Maybe you even grappled with the dilemma of choosing between functionality and aesthetics. If you ended up purchasing lights without built-in motion sensors, there's no need to worry. The good news is that you can easily add motion sensors to your current outdoor lights. The process involves first identifying the ideal sensor placement and then enlisting the help of an electrician to integrate it into the existing light's electrical setup.

 

WHICH OUTDOOR MOTION SENSORS DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR EXTERIOR USE, FULLY EXPOSED TO SUNLIGHT AND RAIN?

 

To ensure excellent performance of your outdoor motion sensor without water damage or electrical issues, opt for models with IP ratings of IP65 or IP66.

 

IP65-rated sensors offer high protection against solid particles and low-pressure water jets from any direction, making them ideal for outdoor lighting exposed to all weather conditions. On the other hand, IP66-rated sensors safeguard against solid particles and high-pressure water jets. 

 

For your outdoor motion sensor needs, the Senso 180° (IP65) and Senso 120° (IP66) by Lampada are perfect choices, designed for reliable operation in any climate and weather.

 

HOW SENSITIVE IS YOUR OUTDOOR MOTION SENSORS? CAN WIND SET IT OFF?

 

Opt for our passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor to ensure your device stays unaffected by wind-triggered activations. These sensors employ infrared technology to constantly monitor their surroundings, exclusively detecting heat signatures. Consequently, they remain undisturbed by inanimate objects moving within their field of view. This feature makes them perfect for security lights, ensuring they won't activate unnecessarily due to natural elements like blowing leaves or swaying branches in the wind. It's important to note, though, that they will continue to detect animals and wildlife, so pet owners should be mindful of this aspect.
