I have mine hooked up to a timer so I'm not certain so not certain how photocell would work , having said that I love the light. Have been waiting for an LED light like this for awhile.

it is a sealed watertight fixture. you would have to drill into the fixture to install photocell on light. i replaced my 200 watt sodium fixture w photocell. with 2 of these 10 watt fixtures. 4 months plugged directly into an outlet no timer no photo cell. honestly, at 10 watts each, i am not sweating the expense of keeping these plugged in all the time. other that a photo cell you might want to plug in a timer into the outlet to give you pretty much the same option as a photo cell would. good luck

Make sure you replaced it with the correct photocell get a small voltage tester to see if the unit is working properly check for loose wires

Wiring is meant to be installed from the back of the plate. The fixture is also meant to be fastened to an electrical wall-box via a bracket hidden behind the plate and fastened by two knurl-headed screws from the front of the plate through the provided screw-holes on the left and right sides. If you fashion a way to hold the fixture to the wall - perhaps simply two brass wood screws or toggle-bolts - and cut a notch in the edge of the plate to accept the raceway and cord, I don't see why that wouldn't work just fine. Note, though, that there is no switch on this fixture - the power needs to be controlled from elsewhere, like a wall switch or some such.

The unit does not come with a photo cell. We used an in-line 110v photo cell and works fine. The unit has a standard electrical thread 3/4 male support. Therefore, it can be mounted easily on a pipe with a 3/4 female coupling. Or, as we did, remove the support and the fixture has a 3/4 threaded hole. A pipe with a 3/4 male coupling screws right in.

I doubt it -- the mechanism is basically a screw in, like a light bulb into a "normal" fixture. But, I am not sure.

The photocell sensor is an automatic switch that switches off a circuit when there is daylight. It can handle any type of bulb as long as the overall rating is not more than 10A.

Yes in electrical capacity. Your fixture's size and shape is the limiting factor.

This is not a light fixture, just a softbox. You would need to get a separate light fixture.

Yes, I use it with a compact fluroescent bulb in my yard light. The photocell simply turns the power on or off depending on daylight conditions.

Fixture itself is hard wired. If you have the same model that you are replacing the internal assembly should be able to be used and plugged in.

Yes. Separate the base from the fixture,screw the base down after bringing in the wiring. connect the wiring,refasten fixture. That's what I had to do with mine. Good Luck

Hi Bob, This bulb will not work with a photocell switch. The added photocell circuit interferes with the bulb circuit causing a strobe effect.

Yes, but there's no on/off switch. Read my review on here as to how to disconnect the photocell. If you don't know what you're doing I wouldn't recommend it.

You will need to purchase the photocells separately. The gate opener is designed to facilitate the photocell.

You need to figure out which are really power (hot wire) and attach the black don the photocell to that one.Then all the whites can go together an the red goes to the lamp or whatever you want to turn on an offAt the beginning when you turn on the cell it will light up until it senses the light and then it will go off in a little whileIf not the cell is bad

If the your photo cell works with a CFL (Compact flourescent light) then it will work for LED light
