Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Leviton provides a large number of merchandise that will assist lower electrical expenses and add convenience to daily living. By just replacing common switches with occupancy sensors reduces energy consumption and extends bulb life. Leviton's Decora (R) Occupancy Sensor Switches automatically turn lights ON when you enter a space and OFF when you leave. In addition to the convenience of hands-no cost switching, motion sensors make certain that lights are not left ON unnecessarily for hours at a time. It makes use of "passive infrared technologies" in order to detect human presence in a room, and respond to the infrared heat people today naturally emit to monitor a distinct region. When this "heat" is sensed, the lights will remain ON in the space, and then turn the lights OFF, when the space is vacated or are unoccupied. Compatible with Decora screwless snap-on wallplates (sold separately). Decora PR180-1LW 500W, Single Pole, 3-Way, 180 Degrees, 400 sq. ft. Passive Infrared Wall Switch Occupancy Sensor, Residential Grade, White. Decora is a registered trademark of Leviton Mfg. Co., Inc.
White, Decora Style, Single Pole, Wall Switch, PIR Occupancy Sensor With Wallplate, 150degree. Field Of View, Incandescent 500W, Fluoresecent 400VA Rapid Commence Magnetic Only, Clamshell Pack.
Buyer Reviews
This product has a much lower price than some of these switches for the reason that it fails to make it clear that it will NOT operate with newer compact fluorescent bulbs (you will have horrible quirks if you attempt it). This can be worked about by adding an incandescent to the circuit this switch controls (if several bulbs). If you only have 1 light on the circuit (like a closet) you will have to just use an incandescent. That getting mentioned...
I observed 1 reviewer mention if the power flashes off when it comes back on the lights will remain on and you will have to turn each switch on and off. I have not had this concern. When the power goes off and back on, the lights do come on but they go off at the interval you have them set at just as they would if motion had set them off.
I obtain the sensor on this switch is substantially much better than others I've had experience with (unquestionably superior than the GE). So long as you know upfront about the previously mentioned "catches", you can take benefit and get a superior deal on a sensor switch.
I was suspicious of this item, at the cost, but I bought two of them and they are both operating well.
The handyman did not get the 3-way wired perfect, so it is required to leave the toggle switch in the on position at the bottom of the stairs, but that is no trouble. Quite often the sensor even picks up the person at the bottom of the stairs. If not, just flip it off and back on when or twice and that triggers the light. Then leave it in the on position. The sensor will turn it off automatically.
If it lasts, it will have been a fairly good deal.
