QWY-P19

Easy install, works a treat, easy to change settings

Hi, I bought this to fit in my dad's garage as the light switch was the other side of the entry door, to save the hassle of trying to stumble across everything and to prevent any further falls or trips, I am very happy with it as he is is too and it comes on as soon as he goes in the door and not having to worry about trying to get back out in the dark. I've 2 batton type double tube vapour proof fittings and switches on and off perfectly.

Firstly, set up easily into existing wall switch wiring so that it controls all 4 outside lights using wago connectors, then fished the mains cable I used through the garage eaves and installed this under the overhang. This way it will work as required but won't get wet easily.On to the positives, works as a good enough PIR sensor, however it has 2 downsides:1) the control dials are VERY sensitive to small amounts and where you want to have timing/lux is at one end of the scale not through all of it. So for example, with timings, it took me about half an hour back and forth to finally set it to light up for 1 minute. ½ a degree clockwise and that becomes 1.5 minutes and ½ deg anticlockwise and it's only 15sec. So you have to make multiple VERY small tweaks to get it set just right.Similarly to the LUX setting - a degree or so less than "fully dark" and it simply lights up during the day. To only be “active” at night (after sunset) it has to pretty much be fully over to the right.......so the full "range" of the dial isn't really being used (might as well be an on/off switch for dark function instead).2) The idea that it has 6m range as claimed is laughable. Mine has about 1-1.5m range. The bonus is that cars driving past won't trigger it, the negative is that unlike as advertised, it WON'T trigger as someone comes up my driveway - only when they're close to the front door.Both these issues make it lose ½ a star each so I'd give it 4/5.Apart from that it looks good and appears to be well sealed (although only time will tell re: longevity and waterproofing).

It works great

This has been fitted by me the householder but the wiring is not explained very well and until I get an electrician in to check I have not managed to set the sensors effectively to work properly.

Great product easy install and easy to adjust timings

Good product
