What you need to know about motion sensor lights

Reading time 3 min
Garden and garage

Sensor lights, lights with a sensor, lights with a motion detector... No matter what you call them, they always serve the same function – to switch on automatically when they detect movement.

All of us have probably forgot to turn the light off before leaving the room at some point. In the best-case scenario, the light stayed on only for ten minutes while we carried groceries from the car to the kitchen. In a worse case, we come back home from work to find out we left the lights on the whole day for no reason. No matter how long the light's been wasting energy, it's enough to make you mad. After all, electricity is not for free.


 

Those exact situations are the reason sensor lighting was invented. If you don't know what we're talking about, let us quickly explain. Imagine you enter a room, and the lights switch on automatically. You are free to do whatever you need, and when you leave the room, the lights automatically switch off again. You wonder how? Sensor lights contain a built-in motion detector that turns the light on when movement is detected. When there's no more movement in the room, the lights switch off after a short while.

 

What makes these lights so practical? As you've probably realised, they make going between rooms easier by removing the need to use a wall switch. Wall and corner holders enable you to install the light and adjust its direction according to your needs. Sensor lights are a great choice for the cellar or garage so that you don't have to look for the wall switch in the dark. Another of their advantages is savings on your electricity bill. They are good for your wallet not only thanks to automatically switching off but also by using energy-saving LED technology.
