I like the concept so very much, I am trying to figure out where else I could use it. I am considering a covered, but outside porch location so the light greats visitors. I don't, however, think this is recommended by the manufacturer for outside use.
Update... My one critisicm is that it continually draws 0.5 watts to maintain the motion sensor. This works out to 12 watt hours per day. So not as great an energy saver as one might think. If it is used in a location where the light is required several times an evening then go for it, but to place this in a seldom accessed location like a storage closet, it will use electricity even if you only go to that closet once a week. My logic my be faulty, but I'd rather switch on a light once a week rather than use 84 watts per week ( .5 watts per hour= 12watts per day = 84watts per week at a minimum even if is OFF the entire time) on the chance that I might access the location and not have a hand free to turn on a light.
Just my opinion

I just bought this light recently and I was so impressed that I bought one more for our hallway. It was bright enough and the sensor worked great. For around $30, if it will last 5 years, it was worth it. I was planning to buy more for the bathrooms. However, less than 2 months after I bought the first lamp, it busted. I put a different LED lamp in the same light recess and it worked. I changed my mind. I think I just lost $33. Buy more? Let us see how long the 2nd bulb I bought will last.Best Deals for Motion Sensor with Light Sensor and LED Light 6w
I have purchased 2 so far and need 3 more. I figured at the current price it would be best to test them prior to using. I have 5 pull string light fixtures in the basement and I have never seen a product work as good as these for easy on/off efficiency.Plan to purchase 3 more and create an easy cost effective lighting system.
I feel I could see a ROI of less than 2 years based on the young children that play in the basement. I had lights left on for days on end if I did not look.
Highly recommend this for basements that are not finished.....Absolutely amazing and much brighter than I had anticipated.
