Default PIR flood light without manual override

any one know of a floodlight with built in PIR without manual override??
as we seem to live in a area that has dips in the mains that's enough to
trigger the manual override, so you come home to find the lights been on
all day wasting power, or would it be better if I installed a separate
PIR and floodlight


Optimum position for a PIR is almost never the floodlight
itself (floodlight wants to be much higher than a PIR),
so combined units are very rarely the correct choice.
