Default Motion sensative outside light

I have recently installed two of these and their 30W big brother and can recommend them. My reasons for choosing is they are completely waterproof IP65, they come with a short length of cable attached with waterproof gland so no worrying about making a waterproof connection hanging off a ladder. The cable entry is in the bottom edge and as I wanted them to be nearer horizontal than vertical means added protection from ingress. If like me you want to have them pointed downwards then I suggest you use a separate PIR, the ones that come with an attached PIR are often difficult to angle either the lamp or the PIR.

I've fitted this type that appears to work well

They come in 10, 30 or 50W versions
The function can be changed by a remote control. The light flashes once
to acknowledge a change of function and the last function selected is
remembered even if the power is removed.
It has a inbuilt microwave motion sensor.

The whole light fitting is slim/small. However it only comes with a very
short fitted cable and I've used a waterproof connector to connect it to
the mains
