LUX setting appears to just define outside brightness for bulbs to come on when motion detected. Is ther a way to adjust actual motion sensor?

If you want the motion detector to be less sensitive adjust the sensor downward.

There is a setting - allows you to have "night" light and then motion activates. Works great.

No. Under bright light or daylight, the lights will not come on when it senses motion.

No, this is a motion sensing light meaning it turns on whenever it senses motion. It does not have any sensor related to if it is night or not. If you put it in a fixture that control whether it turned on if it was night or not it would likely work but the bulb itself is only motion sensor meaning it turns on with motion and turns off after around 60 seconds without motion.

This is a daylight off, dark on, light controlled device. It only reacts to light and dark, motion has no bearing on its operation. You might want to purchase a motion controlled light that is also sensitive to light and dark. It will turn on at night if there is motion in its range of detection. It will not come on in daylight even if there is motion in its range of detection.

It has motion detection and light sensing. I installed one outside. It only lights when it senses motion at night.

Hello, yes, it's built with soft-glow illuminating feature set up with SMART mode, when no detect movement around and can be adjusted for dimming level.Thanks,

It has a light sensor that requires it to be relatively dark before it will light up when a motion is detected. Mine will not light up in broad daylight, but I am not sure how dark it needs to be to light up . Hope this helps.

No, you can't override any of the activities except to turn on or shut the entire unit off using a pin switch. The switch disconnects the battery so the light doesn't come on during shipment or handling. It arrives in the "off" position and you must turn it on after installation or it won't work. If the light were to remain on, the battery would discharge in an hour or two and the unit would turn off. The brief "on" time is to preserve the battery life so it will function most of the night. It will emit a glow (low power) as soon as it gets dark so you can actually see in the immediate area. It will brighten for about 30 seconds when the motion sensor activates it. The glow is about like a 10 watt bulb and the bright is about like a 60 watt bulb. Hope this helps.

If you search for "insteon module" there are indoor and outdoor versions you can plug into an outlet and control with the motion sensor. I use the outdoor one to control path lighting.

It is activated by motion. There is a switch that you can set to adjust sensitivity, so that it will work with other light around. You can also add a little shield over a portion of the sensor, where it won't see motion or light, to make it ignore windows, or trees rustling in wind.

As said below. Read 7.14 of the booklet at the bottom of page 10 and the top of page 11, you just have to set the motion sensor to "off"

I'm not sure. I'm still having intermittent problems, sometimes i'm unable to turn off the light. I'm thinking of disabling the light and installing a motion sensor light in the garage. Hope this is of some help,,,,,

You might have motion detection issues if the lamp is behind a white-frosted glass cover, but I have no way of testing. I mounted mine in a recessed can-style porch fixture though, by using an adapter - the kind that adds two outlets to a light socket, with a chain pull switch (which I leave on for this application).

Mine lights or flashes when motion is detected. It does not stay on steady. This is a good replacement because unlike some others it works with any incandesant bulbs and it works great on a dimmer switch. With others, you cannot use a dimmer or energy efficient bulbs.

At the present time, my home is being resided, and the light fixtures (2) have been removed and stored away, I will be reinstalling the fixtures within a couple of weeks. Currently the fixtures have Compact Fluorescent Bulbs installed in them and YES, they worked fine, but the motion sensor part of the fixture has been disabled with a piece of tape over the sensor. Upon reinstalling the fixtures, I will be using carefully selected LED bulbs and enabling the motion sensor feature. If I have any problems with the reinstallation, I will report it to all here. I know of no problems in using CFL with these fixtures.

There is NO MOTION SENSOR ON THIS FIXTURE. It is strictly a dusk to dawn unit. You could wire in a separate motion sensor to control the light. If the fixture "sees" daylight it will turn off. I don't know of a reason to have the light on unless it was "dark".
