Modern appearance with useful features

The sensor is easy to wire up and has outlets for 2 cables, although I used a single 4 core. For reasons of sealing, there is not much scope for adjusting the mounting screw positions so, if you are a perfectionist, you will have to be accurate with drilling the mounting surface. I was drilling into very hard bricks which made this difficult, resulting in a box that was not quite vertical. The lid, when unscrewed, is held to the box by a thin nylon cord. This could be useful if you are up a ladder to stop the lid being dropped but I found the cord broke very easily. This is only a very minor point though. The time control is a switch with discrete time settings. The plus side of this is you know exactly what time you have selected, the downside would be you can't select anything in between. The light setting is an analogue control. I have not actually used the "current light level" set feature (switch on side) so I can't really comment on that.
Overall this seems to be a well built and robust product

Working well

It is a replacement for another make that has been working for six years so far so good, The only problem I had was having to take the cover off again to set the light level or go out at dusk to push the button on the side as it sited in an difficult position.Read full review

The best dawn to dusk sensor

Well designed. Can enter from back of unit and sits flush in wall and much better quality than others. The best feature is that these has a 2,4,8 hour setting which makes so much easier to control than other brands. Pay the extra and get the better productRead full review

Automatic light control

This unit performs very well. Being able to adjust the sensitivity of the light switch-on level is really good. I’m using it with a time clock so cannot comment upon the inbuilt timer function, but have no reason to doubt its performance.
Ideal for display garden lights when they want to switch on before it gets dark to maximise effect.

Neat little photocell switch

Easy to fit although the retaining cord is weak and will probably break on you. Cut it before you start. Wiring is a bit fiddly as you can't see the terminal ports, only the screws, but you'll manage.
What I wanted to say here is that this unit does work as a full dusk to dawn sensor (D-D) as well as turning off after 2, 4 or 8 hours if that is how you want to set it. Working well with a 5W LED porch light. Can't comment on durability.

light senisitive switch with timer

Needed a light sensitive switch that included a timer so the light does not remain on throughout the night. This does it. you can have a light turn on at dusk (adjustable) and stay on for as many hurs as you wish.Read full review

Excellent quality product

I purchased 2 of these sensors. They were easy to install and set up. They both worked perfectly.
