Review on 🏞️ Westek Outdoor Lighting with Programmable Control by Srinivas Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

SECURITY THREAT! Be careful when installing

Very mixed review. I ordered a double pack of these light sensor sockets for a closed outdoor light. The installation process couldn't be simpler, simply screw it into your existing socket like a regular light bulb. After that it went downhill quickly. Immediately after screwing the device into the socket, I heard a loud buzz, accompanied by clouds of smoke and flames. Obviously some short in the internal electronics. I jumped back and thankfully the device burned out in a matter of seconds. Now for the good news. After coming to his senses, he carefully removed the faulty block and inserted the second. This works as intended and if this were my only experience I would give this product 5 stars. However, given the potential for critical manufacturing safety flaws, I cannot give this product a high rating.

Pros
  • for outdoor and indoor lighting - screw it into outdoor lighting socket/socket (for porch and spotlights) as well as indoor lighting e.g. in lobbies. Keep your way lit in the dark and save energy and money.
Cons
  • So far so good
