The PIR says that it is suitable for halogen, low energy and inductive
loads so will be suitable for pretty much anything. The ratings quoted
are the maximum permitted loads so 2 lamps will be well within the rating.


But it does not say it has a light sensor fitted which you may need/want
too??


Good old Toolstation and their descriptions-lite :-/

Yes, very good point, I've not seen an external security light type PIR
that didn't have one fitted but no way to make sure other than by
inspection of the destructions. Fine if there is a TS branch nearby so
it can be inspected on the spot or bought and returned if unsuitable.

I wouldn't hold breath on the possibility of anyone at TS HQ being able
to answer the question straight away or on them answering it correctly
if they did.
