I use these motion dectors with led flood lights also it'd gives plenty of light for my security cameras. I also use a 8 pin relay so there is load on the motion dector. I'll add pictures later.

Worked for 3 years than quit but hey, it worked, and I would buy another one if it last that long.

Top quality product replaces 120V motion detector for 120V lights. Works well, easy installation. Zenith quality lasts and works for many years. I have used LED, regular. and the fluorescent twist bulbs with no problem. After 7 years mine suddenly failed during very cold weather. Worked in test mode but not when switched to on mode. I tried to fix it by looking at obvious things like bug cocoon webs on circuit board, switch function, damaged electronics, isolated it to the timer circuit. Non-repairable stuff. Cost is the factor as replacement lights are in the same range as the sensor. Since I had other things to buy it was free shipping and that put it into cost effective range. Since I fix what I can because I hate trashing good things fixing it is always the first consideration. If you are like me then buy this replacement. Cost is a wash but if you fix things then less goes to garbage.

This motion sensor works with my custom lighting circuit that has 2 of these motion sensors on corners of the house that control the same lighting bank via relays. Other motion sensors have to 'sense' a load of more than a few miliamps to work properly. This motion sensor works with my design.

These are ok for replacement of bad sensors.

Update - to be fair, these sensors work very good (3 months in). This bad review is for the seller - amazon. Who sent me a used/abused part, then insisted on sending a special truck out to pick up an unusable $15 piece of garbage before sending an actual new replacement. So to get 2 of these, there were THREE trucks sent to my rural location! Don't put your poor eco-score on me amazon - fix your policy - I begged to just throw it away but they insisted it had to be returned to be replaced.Original review:I ordered two NEW (as it says on the receipt and product page) motion sensors. Got two used - Amazon put a sticker on the box that says "thanks to you, this product has a second life". (I would never buy refurbed motion sensors because they are only $15 new to begin with, and are fussy devices.) So, one of them was ready for the garbage (parts missing, wires obviously wire nutted), and the other looked new. Amazon said they'd send me a new one (wonder if this garbage one will be refurbished too and sent to you?) but ONLY if I send it back. I complained that if they are trying to be eco-friendly by refurbishing, they just FAILED.. this part belongs in the garbage not on specially sent trucks!Anyway, their false advertising wrecked my project day, and their poor policy wrecked my eco-goals for that week.. all the fuel wasted. Hope this helps someone to not have this type of experience ordering this product.This product should be labeled "refurbished" or "renewed", not NEW. BTW, the one that was not missing parts is installed and seems to work well, so... roll the dice if you want.Amazon should not require a return on replacements like this if they have eco-goals and an environmental conscience.

We have four driveway lamp posts: old school, cast metal, with glass pane tops that hold three candelabra bulbs each. They're wired to a house circuit by the front door to allow manual override. The motion/photo sensor has never been replaced and finally went a couple of weeks ago - at least I hoped it was just the sensor, the thought of tracing/digging up the buried power line didn't appeal to me.It took less than an hour to replace the sensor: Find and turn the circuit breaker off before you attempt this. I'll say it again: Find and turn the circuit breaker off before you attempt this.Take the entire cap of the top of the post. The wire gauge was heavy enough I could lie the cap on the side of the post while I reached in and pulled the clump of wires out. Unscrew the sensor arm at the point it contacts the post. Don't bother taking the ball joint apart. Here's a tip: don't just clip the wires from the old sensor and pull it out before wiring the new sensor, because:1) you can use the existing wires as a guide to match the colors of the new ones2) there's a nut inside the post that the sensor arm screws into. The old wires run through it and hold it in place. If you run the new wires through it you don't have to worry about the nut falling into the post.The connections inside my post were all done by twist cap (no soldering or taping) and the wire gauge the Heath comes with is light enough you can twist it by hand.Replace each old wire with the corresponding new one. Pull the old wires out with the old sensor (now you can clip them if you need to). Don't put the top cap back on until you reach in and hold that nut against the post and thread the new sensor arm in. It's plastic and finger-tight is fine. Replace the cap, position the sensor and turn the breaker on.The docs say the first time powering up the sensor it takes a minute and a half to calibrate. Slide the button to 'Test' - the bulbs should come on immediately and the small red LED on the front should blink intermittently. If they do, you've got juice and all that's left is playing with the positioning and selecting the time setting.We mostly use the manual override because we don't keep the light on continually at night (we use a separate door light).The switch in the house is just for the post lights, so it's usually off. To turn the lights on it's simple: "UP/DOWN, count one-two, UP" - give it a second and the lights come on and stay on until you turn the switch off.Bottom Line: Installing the Heath sensor is a DIY job that anyone with some home electronics experience (like installing light switches) can handle.
