Amazon.com Product Description
The First Alert Motion-Sensing Light Socket quickly and easily transforms an ordinary light socket into a motion-sensing socket. This clever device will automatically turn on a light when it senses movement, and it will turn off the light after movement is no longer detected. This means you can finally stop worrying about fumbling for a light switch when your hands are full or finding a hard-to-reach pull-string in the dark.



This hands-free, motion-sensitive lighting device helps improves safety and convenience in your home. View larger.

The Motion-Sensing Light Socket
At-a-Glance:
  • Hands-free lighting device turns on with movement
  • Detects motion in every direction
  • Installs easily into an existing light socket
  • 3-year limited warranty
Convenient, Automatic Lighting
Ideal for laundry rooms, basements, walk-in closets, garages, or anywhere a light switch isn't in a convenient spot, the First Alert Motion-Sensing Light Socket is a hands-free lighting device that turns on when you enter a room and automatically turns off four minutes after movement stops.

Senses Movement in All Directions
Able to operate in broad daylight or pitch-black darkness, this light socket features a 360-degree motion sensor that will detect a person approaching within twelve feet when installed at an eight-foot height. To achieve maximum motion sensitivity, use the handy arrows marked on the unit to determine the strongest response, adjusting the 180-degree points to face a door or other high-traffic area as needed.

Simple Installation for Immediate Use
With the First Alert Motion-Sensing Light Socket, you can get the convenience of automatic lighting without the expensive installation. Just screw the motion-sensing socket directly into an existing light socket, and then fasten the light bulb into the new fixture. The socket works with 25-100 watt bulbs (the product is not suitable for use with enclosed, shaded, or halogen bulbs).

The First Alert Motion-Sensing Light Socket is backed by a three-year limited warranty.

    I purchased 2 of these and 1 lasted about a day and simply stopped working. The other lasted a few days more are stayed in the on mode and never switched off. Complete waste of money.

    This worked for a full day. That's all. The second day, the light stayed on and never went off again. I finally had to take it down and will be returning it for a refund. Bummer.


    2 out of 5 stars It didn't work for me   November 16, 2009

    The light just stays on. It's more than 1 foot away from either wall so not sure what they problem is. I put black tape over the sensors facing the wall and that still didn't work.

    Sucks, because I really wanted this to work. I own a building and I'd rather have the lights turn on and off when people enter the building.

    I read the instructions completely and not way to deal with it.



    4 out of 5 stars Turns the light on   November 5, 2009

    We have this in the pantry. It was a much cheaper way to turn the light on when the door opened than wiring a switch into the hinge.

    The only problems with it are minor. It needs 25+ watts. a 100Watt(24) CFL will NOT work. It also killed itself after a few years of operation when the bulb flashed out. One day, opened the pantry and the light flashed on then off. The bulb burned out, and took out the sensor. But it had worked well for 2+ years.

    The nice thing is the light isn't ever on in the pantry overnight anymore.

    This motion sensing light socket works pretty well. You may need to experiment a little with the area you want the motion to be detected. Once on, the light stays on for four minutes. I would prefer it if the light went off no more than a minute after it stops sensing motion.
