1 failed after 6 months June 2019

Both worked as advertised and great from December 2018 to June 2019 then one just stopped working. I tested other outlets to be sure and it looks like I only got 1 for $27 instead of 2. I'll send a message to the seller and if they want to replace it I'll come back and change it to 5 stars because otherwise it's very good value for money. Maybe I have a lemon and if it isn't replaced, then suppose one breaks and you only have one. For $27, you can purchase a wireless model that allows for more…

My horses love it; Cooling on demand!

I have installed these (pun intended) in my stall boxes that connect to box fans. My horses are grazed 24/7 and are just horses. The outside doors of their coop are left open and they come in at feeding time and whenever they want shelter from the rain or heat. When a horse enters the stable, the motion sensor turns on the stable fan. When the horse walks, the fan turns off. I have each sensor in the top corner of each box and I set the down angle so that there are very few instances where a…

Pros
  • I hold my fists
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

Works perfectly. Does what it should.

Great product! Shipped fast! Two sensors from this kit connect to one of the controllers. One sensor is at the top of my stairs and the other is at the bottom. I have small step lights on each riser that now turn on when approaching the stairs from the top or bottom. Great safety feature for steps and looks neat. The only thing I would recommend the manufacturer to do is ensure that the cable between the sensor and the controller can be disconnected and reassembled; perhaps using the round tabs

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Almost never

Great for teens who don't turn things off when they're done!

So I installed this in an 18 x 20 shed where we work on four wheelers etc. I hooked up a 3 way electrical splitter and was hoping to put a large fan and light on it. that when my son is not working with his toys, he switches himself off. Kids are notorious for not paying attention to utility bills and the wear and tear of appliances. The fact that it turns on and stays on while it's there and turns off when it goes is the main reason I bought it. I installed the sensor in the roof supports…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Makes me nervous

You only get one worked for me for about 2 months.

Pair bought. The first one lasted me 1-2 months. The first month worked perfectly. I have this in my mother's room who is elderly and has dementia so I love the idea of her getting up when the light comes on. So, as I said, the first month was perfect. The second month turns off a little longer, but it works without problems. In the end it worked after some time. I change the settings so that it turns off and different minutes and they stay on for a long time. Time until I turn it off manually.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • There are new competitors

NOT "activated by motion "

05/21/17 β€” The longer I use this thing, the less I like it. Just opened the door to the stairwell, waited two or three seconds - no reaction. He appeared halfway up the stairs. The lags seem to be increasing and I've only been using it for a month. 4/22/17 - This is an infrared sensor, not a motion sensor. In the application for which I wanted to detect movement at the top of a stairwell, it works adequately - as long as you wait for it. I had to install it across the fountain at about knee…

Pros
  • Quick Change
Cons
  • Nothing Here

Problematic motion detection approach

This was purchased to turn on the floor lamp when I enter the room. There are versions of this product with a wall switch, but they only work when the wall switch is plugged into a wall outlet, which was not the case in my case. The product comes with nice long cables that allow flexible placement of the lamp and motion sensor. The positive thing is that you can easily set the switch-on time. However, I would like the product to come in a two-prong (ungrounded) version, as most outlets in my…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Security

I'm sick of the other reviews but I think I get it

Ok after reading other reviews I wasn't sure if I really wanted to try this or not but for now it is only one i can find a cheap unit like this one and they were selling two for $26 instead of one for $20. Note. I ended up with two, both exactly the same. What it doesn't work: I noticed that I had to leave the device alone for about 30 seconds after turning it on. After that it seems to work. Switching Delay: About a minute after turning on the device, the relay seemed to trip a few seconds…

  • Great choice
Cons
