Is there a manual switch for this light with a motion sensor? Can it be installed on the underside of home "overhang"? Bulbs included?

It can be wired with a manual switch along with the motion sensor. Not sure why it could not be installed on your overhang, hard to say without looking at your situation. It has LED bulbs, so yes they are included.

This light works manual or sensor it should only be installed on the face of the wall it's an LED light does not have bulbs! This light is a very good product

No manual switch on the fixture itself and it does come with bulbs. I have mine mounted on a flat surface but you may be able to find a different kind of mounting. My electrician installed three of these and I love them and bought 8 more. I have 10 acres in the woods so security was important but also the ability to enjoy the stars

This light does not come with such a switch. It might be possible for someone with electrical know how toinstall such a switch to disengage the sensor, and manually turn the light off and on. As someone suggested,the sensor could simply be covered making it not operable, and a switch installed in the power cord.

Yes, as long as you have room for the wires to connect to the fixture, I used a waterproof junction box which is part of many lamp setups. You will need an extra hole in the box to mount the stem of the motion detector that isn't shown in the photo.

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.

No switch. I don't think this is the light you want for a bathroom. Next to a mirror you'd want even light. Even if using a frosted bulb the ridges in the glass cast shadows. Even using it as a porch light the shadows produced by the ridges are not so desirable.

Sorry I didn't install it. Electrician did it. But the light is really nice. I like it.

There is no sensor on this light. It is a 110 volt light which is wired to the electrical system and controlled by a normal house switch.

As the other two respondents said, I believe you could ceiling mount it, but it would not hang as in the photo because the mounting screw is on the back. The sensor would be pointing downward and the light would be angled 45 degrees from how it is pictured. All in all, I doubt it would be a good idea. Additionally, since it requires an electrical mounting ( it is not battery operated) it would require running wire and installing the outlet in the overhang.

I think this light would work perfect in that situation. I have experimented with the settings of mine and found that the motion sensor is just as sensitive in a lighted environment as in the dark. Also, the brightness is great enough to add extra illumination, even in already lit areas.

Yes. The unit is just a switch. I use CFLs in outdoor lights controlled by this motion sensor and it works well.

It is a standard dual light fixture that may be run off of a switch is you desire that kind of control.It has a third hole (plugged by default) between the two lights where a light sensor can be wired in, and then it stays on when it is dark outside.The same third hole could also accommodate a motion detector, and then whatever kind of motion detector you select would control the lights.

Yes, easily screwed into any standard light fixture. If there is any type of shade over the fixture, make sure you have extra room for the motion sensor. No shade, no problem

It's definitely bright enough for using as an under cabinet light. You can adjust the angle/direction to get the response you want. I do find it comes on with minimal movement, but that is what I want. If I didn't I'd find a way to turn it or partially cover the sensor to make it less sensitive.

My electrician setup 2 switches - I wish I knew how he did it. One wall switch will force the lamp on or off. The other allows it to stay in "security lamp" mode, so it only lights up when motion triggers the sensor.

No, there's no switch on the fixture. When I installed it I had a switch installed as well on the wall.

I returned the light as it didn't have the option to change the motion sensor.

I think the fixture would need to be enclosed as the light has vents. Also with the sensor being on the bottom it wouldn't register movement it can't see.
