Default Energy saver bulb with (adjustable) sensor??

Allan Gould wrote:
I have been very happily using a "15W Osram Dulux EL Sensor Energy
Saver" bulb. It's a typical low-energy bulb with a sensor that will
switch on/off in dark/light conditions respectively. The
differentiating feature is that it has a small dial on the side (that
the literature calls an 'electronic dimmer') which lets you adjust the
sensitivity of the sensor. This is tremendously useful as otherwise
the bulb would stay on for too long. Osram don't appear to make them
any more. I can get a typical bulb without adjuster with ease. I'd
like to find one that is adjustable. Osram don't make them any more.
Does anyone know where I can find an adjustable sensor low-energy
light
bulb (preferably in the UK with bayonet fitting)? I've searched the
web & ngs fairly exhaustively (I think), and e.g. screwfix only have
the non-adjustable bulbs.
TIA

Nope! cant help you however probably a bit late now but Aldi had plug-in
digital timers on offer a few weeks ago(I bought 3 :-) ) whereby i can set
the time for the standard lamp/s to come on just as its going dark and also
off when its getting light.

Just a thought.
