Asked by Manchestermama April 6, 20172
Answersno
I have a double flood light will these work if I put one on each light?
Asked by Peggy March 6, 20172
AnswersI would say yes, if they are not too high up and thus not within the range of detection desired--that is a problem I have too. It is also a problem if you want one regular spot and one of these units. For the unit to work, the light must be on, meaning the spot is on when the detection unit is engaged--meaning a light is already on.... Makes for a difficult selection of a place to use them......

The instructions don't mention it, but I found that a PAR38 bulb is too big in that it physically blocks the view of the motion sensor window - so I put in a PAR30 bulb. The other problem is that they advertise that the motion sensor has a 30 foot range. My unit seems to have a range of less than 10 feet. A nice feature is that is has a switch that allows you to set the time that the light stays on; it also has a "4 second" switch position for testing and bypassing the day-night photo cell. I wish the range was a bit further, but all in all, a nice unit for the price.

Works well if the receptacle has the right number of turns. I have two outside lights and this works beautifully in one of them, but it does not work in one because it screws in too deep and the sensor is in a poor position to detect motion.

The light is fine and does work well in an upright position. Porch ceiling lights when bulb is inserted are in downward position, therefore the Westek sensor is in a side position and therefore does not focus outward. My light fixture is not a side of building or upright lamp style mounted type.
