How far to the left and right can the motion sensor be adjusted to face? I plan on installing it on the outlet that is perpendicular to the street.

Approximately 30 degrees, as you can guess from the picture, with 180 degrees coverage. If the purpose is to monitor the front of the house this would not be a mounting I would recommend. I have a similar situation but my purpose is to monitor the side yard so it works well.

Although it calls for a detection of 60 ft. in the item description, I have used it for a 20 ft. detection. It works well for the 20 ft.; however, I don't know how it will perform beyond that.

Its a guess but I think its about 60 degree arc. However the sensitivity very from one unit to another. Some will go off at 60ft and others at 40

Yes, that's exactly where I have mine mounted. I mounted it on the side closest the street so you can barely see it from the street. Good luck. Kenny

I didn't hook mine to a motion sensor because it only last about 10hrs of run time. But using an motion sensor with a controlled outlet should work. This light came with a plug already installed.

The light comes with some double sided tape but I used my own 3" screws to get through the siding & insulation. Worked Ok although the motion sensor is mounted such that it does not sense motion directly under it. Approach it from 6' out & it works great. I would use the double faced tape only on an indoor installation. Seems like a well built light. Should work fine if motion is coming at it.

I think that it can be installed in a half circle. I set mine up in one straight line. the wire only goes from one side to the other...no need to go back to the start on the wire.

I used it the way it is made. I don't think it can be changed to any other position. It is designed to fit between the joists, so exhaust outlet goes parallel to the joists.

Since it doesn't have a 3rd prong you can face it whatever direction you want. I have it on the front end end of my power strip with the USB port facing the same way as the power cord and it doesn't get in the way of any other outlets. If you turn it the other way or put it in the middle of the power strip it will take up two outlets worth of room. I hope this was helpful.

Wanted same effect, mounted mine about 4' out, and 2' above top of door, sensor facing the door. worksok, a little slow to turn on sometimes, sometimes goes psychotic and cycles on no motion for long periods.

The maximum distance for motion sensor seems to be about 30-35 feet. That is directly in front of the light. These lights are terrific so far.

To be perfectly honest I am not sure since I already have it mounted 12 feet up in the air on the front of my garage. It did fit & install on the regular round electrical box that I had been using for my old motion sensing light if that helps any.

yes you can from the top were your motion detector is.The top pact can be move from side to side. I hope this help! it is a little tight but it can be done..

I installed it in the soffit, so it would be in a weather-protected spot, and aimed the sensor out to our yard, but pointed away from the lights that it controls. I ran some romex to a junction box that I put at the soffit location, and installation of the photo control unit was very easy once that was in place--the wiring instructions on the package are very clear and easy to follow. Hope all that helps!

I don't think you can - the water outlet is at the middle of the AC... In edition the installation kit will not support sideways installation - So you have a lot of modifications to make...

i had mine installed about 3 inches from the outside wall because it is electric i felt that it would not be a good idea to expose it to the washington rains by looking at the exposed wires and wire rap .i did not see and thing in the instructions which would not permit it .

The short answer is "yes." But I assume what you mean is that you have an existing switched outlet, controlled by a wall switch, and you want to swap the wall switch to the motion sensor. Your question is still not entirely clear to me, though, as this transformer is intended to be hard wired into a jbox, and not plugged into an outlet.

I'm not a professional electrician, but I don't see a practical reason why it couldn't be installed sideways. However,everything I do, I do to code. So if you have space issues, you might be in violation of code spacing from unit to floor, unit to side wall and/or unit to door/trim/framing etc. Some codes may seem silly. To me, codes for a heater for safety clearance seem reasonable.

I'm not sure what the specifications say but it is about 60 feet from where I mounted mine to the street and as it was adjusted out of the box, it was seeing cars in the street, so I adjusted the sensitivity and aimed it a little more downward so that it would only detect the closer motion near the door. Works great so far!
