Outdoor motion sensor lighting?
We have a regular outdoor lamp with a regular lightbulb that I would like to convert to a motion sensor light. It’s on our side porch just outside the door and we don’t leave the light on all the time. We just like to illuminate the area if someone is coming over at nighttime or when we are getting home after being out all day. Is it easy to convert this regular light to a motion sensor light? What type of hardware do we need to make this conversion? Is it just a lightbulb or is there a whole kit that needs assembly? Is this an easy task or is it pretty involved? Best answer will go to the response that is detailed and easy to understand. Thanks!
For under $10, you can buy a conversion kit at the hardware store. The one we got simply screws into the base that the light bulb goes into and then you leave the switch in the on position all of the time so that the bulb will turn on with motion. Make sure you have the sensor pointed in the correct position because when we first installed ours we had it pointed toward a tree which would activate it every time the wind blew.
