As soon as I saw an ad for this light I had to get it. I've had problems with previous lights coming on when you approached the motion sensor straight on so I thought this would be the perfect solution. The first light I received was damaged upon receiving it. The motion sensor arm was cracked (cheap plastic). I returned it and waited a month to receive a new one from Amazon.

Upon receiving the new light it sorta worked. At dusk the light gets confused and doesn't know whether or not to stay on. When it detects motion the light will flicker at dusk. Once the sun fully sets it will then work as described. Unfortunately the light just stopped working properly. It remains on regardless of motion or sunlight. Even taking a flashlight and shining it directly into the photovoltaic cell doesn't shut it off.

I'm returning it back to Amazon one more time. Maybe the third time will be a charm. If it doesn't work after this last attempt it will just be sent back and I will find another manufacturer. The one good aspect of the light it that it appears to pick up motion regardless of how the object is moving which is great. It also has a wide field of detection.

Unit only blinks on for four seconds when motion is detected. Cooper Lighting support says their daylight sensor is picking up the lamps own reflected light off wall it is mounted to. That I should tape large black cardoard between wall and its sensor! Even that would not work after testing. Rain would destroy the cardboard and look horrible on white garage with white lamp. Incredibly poor design for an otherwise advanced sensor. This could have been a great product with a very small technical correction, but is utterly unacceptable. Don't even think of buying this.

After replacing countless similar (Chinese Made JUNK)security lights at Lowe's & Home Depot which failed within one year I decided to buy these name brand Cooper lights, and so far so good, they are working as they should but just so you know each light has one 150 bulb which will light up a small area but not a very large yard if that is what you have, I will give an update in about 6 months to let everyone know how they are working out.

I used this product for an eave mount. Overall I would rate the product as good (price+value+function). The base did not match up with the standard metal round conduit box. Luckily it is under the eave so this should not cause any issues. I will probably put some silicone on top of it just to help with moisture. The sensor head arm is delicate to be gentle on it. Losen the screws first before you try to adjust it. Considering the lack of available eave mounted lights this was a good fixture. It advertised 2x 100w bulbs and came with 2x 150w bulbs but that is not a big deal. It is a floodlight so it throws good light out to about 100 feet. The "doppler" motion detector picks up motion well from people. My dogs do not set it off. This is fine because I live out in the country so I don't want every critter setting it off. Overall I am pleased.
