Benefits of outdoor lighting with a sensor

Installing LED lighting with a sensor offers several advantages for your garden, combining energy efficiency, convenience, and safety. Here’s a quick overview of the key benefits:
•    Always ensures clear visibility.
•    Deters intruders.
•    Prevents lights from staying on too long.
•    Reduces energy consumption.

What to consider when buying outdoor lighting with a sensor

When choosing outdoor lighting with a sensor, it’s important to consider a few factors:
•    Detection range: For motion sensors, check how far the sensor can detect movement.
•    Light duration: Many fixtures allow you to customize how long the light stays on after activation.
•    Sensitivity settings: If you’re buying a dusk-to-dawn sensor, consider the range of light sensitivity and how well it suits your environment.

With the right features, you can ensure your sensor lighting meets your specific needs for convenience and efficiency.

Difference between outdoor lights with a dusk-to-dawn sensor and a motion sensor

At Gardenlightsstore.com, we offer 12-volt and 24-volt garden lighting systems that work with a transformer. With the right sensors, you can automate your lighting to turn on and off as needed. Here’s a breakdown of the two main types of sensors:

Dusk-to-dawn sensors

When a transformer is equipped with a dusk-to-dawn sensor, it controls all connected lights automatically. This means your lights will turn on as the sun sets, allowing you to enjoy a cozy evening on your terrace without interruption. Dusk-to-dawn sensors are ideal for creating an intimate atmosphere while also adding a sense of security, even when you’re not at home.

Motion sensors for outdoor lights

Motion sensors activate your lights when movement is detected, such as when you’re walking on a garden path or driveway. They’re perfect for targeted lighting needs, like entrances or balconies, where only a few lights are necessary. An added benefit of motion sensors is their ability to deter uninvited guests by turning on lights as soon as someone enters your garden. With smart sensors, you can easily adjust how long the lights stay on after activation, ensuring energy efficiency and convenience.

in-lite lighting with sensors

If you have in-lite garden lighting, your 12-volt transformer already comes with a built-in dusk-to-dawn sensor.

For motion detection, in-lite offers several options:
•    in-lite MOVE: A motion sensor compatible with HUB 50 and HUB 100 transformers. It detects movement up to 10 meters and allows you to set the lighting duration to 1, 3, or 9 minutes.
•    in-lite SMART MOVE: A wireless motion sensor designed for the SMART HUB 150. It charges via solar cells and can be customized using the in-lite app, giving you full control over your lighting system.
