LED PIR security light with manual/pulse override

[Bob Kellock]

I want to replace a cheap and nasty Halogen light with a LED one that should lastat least 10 years.
With the Halogen one, it can be triggered to switch on for its preset period by interrupting the supply to it, when dark, for about 5 or more seconds. I don't want what appears to be the common manual override which switches the light on permanently until daylight.
Additionally it needs to have an L1 terminal to operate as slave.
Do you know of any that meet that spec?

All the ones I fit are pre terminated with 3 core cable..... So no I don't how of any

Interesting one that,never really seen anything on market for that operation,you may need a latching/flip flop relay then a push to make retrative switch.

Just fitting some pre fitted four wire 10W LED flood with PIR, forth wire is over ride / feed on to other lights

Can't think of the company name - red something - will look in the back of the van at some point over easter

Looking about, I've spotted these with the 4th lead L1. There's a few more nearby, but they are £many.

Put up an NVC 10W LED one the other day with built-in PIR and manual override function and settings adjustment on a small remote control.
Not sure if the override has the option to be timed though.
Had factory fitted three-core flex for permanent feed and the rest is done inside the unit. I don't know enough about the various brands to recommend one over another but just posted this as it may be an option and I believe they are not very expensive.

Well blow me down. Had a job this week, to fit two PIR Led flood lights for a friend. Wiring already installed, just fit the luminaires. Picked up one from my wholesalers, the NVC one!

Interestingly, it was more sensitive to activation towards the sensor than across it, which wasn't appropriate in this install, and only had sensitivity at 4m, rather than the suggested 8m (at 2.3m height). So that went back, how did you get on soms?

The performance seemed good enough for our install as it was above a back door into a patio/garden area on a housing estate and the distances from which it could be approached from the sides were not very large.

Hmmm, cheers. My activation route was from the sides, had to be within 1 metre to activate in that mode. Face on, was only 4m, as I said. Liked the small remote. Called their technical, who couldn't advise. Dunno if the one I had was faulty? I noted the PIR was quite narrow, and moved with the light.
