I want to replace my 110w sensor flood light with a remote control flood light that i can turn on &amp; off, will this unit work ? Thank You, Dave

The electronic components in this are not good quality. I've had two units and both green LED arrays went out. May be able to replace a component and get it running again.

Is it really? "Compatible" not just that it will light up but it will light up and not burn out in days or weeks. In my experience, motion sensors don't play nice with CFLs. I've tried several brands in a protected outdoor floodlight fixture and all have died an early death ranging from days to maybe 6-18 months at best. It gets tripped by our dog for maybe an hour or less total on-time every night.Maybe it's time to invest in some LED PAR38s or BR40s.

Seems like it SHOULD work as long as the build is protected in water tight enclosure. It is not a bright as a regular incandescent, but it is cooler and should be bright enoughespecially for dim lighting conditions. Don't drop the remote control in the water.

I just got a second one of these for my house yesterday and the back of the package says, "This lamp is not compatible with photo controls, occupancy sensors, or timing devices." So while others are reporting that it will work with their setups, it appears Philips does not recommend it for this use (dusk to dawn fixture).

I have one of these sensors connected to a dual floodlight mounted above and between the doors of my two-car garage and it works fine to illuminate the short double-wide driveway leading from the street to the garage. I'm not sure how it would with your decorative lighting as it is intended to screw into the mount for the dual floodlight unit; but I'd bet a qualified electrician could connect some wiring (possibly through a conduit) to another lamp away from the dual floodlight unit it's intended for.

I have it controlling a 14 watt outside energy efficient light. Works great. The on/off override switch is used all the time.

I use this switch on a pair of 150 watt halogen flood lights, see the switch specs below - 50 watt will work just fine. Halogen comes under the official designation of incandescent.Wall Switch (WE-001); On/Off function on devices up to 1000WWorks with incandescent, fluorescent and compact fluorescent lamps

The touch light sensor I purchased through OK Lighting worked with both of my lamps. For the price, I went with the statement that this unit works with most lamps and after installation both of my lamps are now working.

There light from this bulb was specifically designed for reptiles. It is smaller than conventional flood lights. Use of a regular flood light could harm your reptile.

I used a standard motion/light detector with two of these and it works fine. Not sure that only 1 10W light will work as there is a minimum turn on requirements. You need to look at the minimum load turn on specification. The alternative is to buy this light, but already has the light/motion sensor built in. They are just a few dollars more. These do not create bright white light, like for reading. Also make sure the wire length is long enough for your application. I got fooled and some wires were only 6" long on some lights I bought.

Not sure why it isn't working other than you may have a bad unit. DO both units light up? If not, then it's bad. And I don't mean a good bad. I've had 3 of these so far since one got water in it but have had no other problems. Good luck!

Takes a regular incandescent flood light - don't think the energy efficient type will work as they have a wider base .

I was sure it would work ...But there is always the possibility that I do not know-it-all.So, I plugged a table lamp with a compact fluorescent bulb into the SensorPlug.It came right on.I looked at e-mail for two minutes.Sure enough - it turned off.

This was a failed project for me, one of my 2 controllers died, There were times one of 2 lights worked. I might have my controller on one side of my 220 line and the sockets on the other side. What I can tell you is that manually turning the lights on with the switch in the garage, they don't come on. I think "Francois" has answered the question for us. If I saw his thoughtful answer before I started to respond, I might not have replied. Thank you Francois.

Hi Eddie. Unfortunately, You will need to turn it back on yourself after a power outage. Have a great day!Vermin

I really do not know. for my replacement I went with the voltage and amps and size. Mine was for flood spot light. Good luck.

I'm not sure but it seems to me that if you split the 240 v line into two 120 v lines you could use one of these lines to power the floodlight.
