Motion Sensors

(22 items)
Set Descending Direction

Sensors are fantastic for helping you to save energy at home, as well as reducing the time and effort you spend turning your lights on and off. Choose light sensors that will control your lights when they detect motion or through the detection of sunlight, turning on at dusk and off at dawn. Our range of sensors gives a wide choice, with options for indoor and outdoor lighting. Motion sensors could change your life more than you could ever realise, and with just one small update to your home.

Simple Lighting is the best place to come if you're looking for lighting sensors online, and want to fulfil your other lighting needs.

Motion Sensors

There are two main types of light sensor available for your home and business. The first is a motion sensor, which is designed to turn on when it detects motion. It also automatically turns off if no motion has been detected after a certain amount of time. These sensors are ideal for using in several different ways. They're excellent for security lights outside your home, helping to make your property safer when you return home or if there are any suspected intruders.

Motion sensors are excellent for indoor use too, particularly in small rooms and spaces. For example, they're ideal for using the bathroom - especially if everyone forgets to turn the light off when they leave! Motion light sensors are useful in your garage or shed too. Anywhere you don't need to have a lot on all the time, and you may only need it for a couple of minutes at a time, it makes sense to install a motion sensor.

Motion sensors can detect at different angles and distances. Some of our motion sensors have 360-degree detection and are capable of detecting movement from more than ten metres away. A PIR (passive infrared) sensor measures infrared light so that it's able to detect objects moving in front of it.

Photocell Sensors

Photocell sensors work by detecting light, instead of movement. They're designed to turn lights on when dusk falls and off when dawn arrives. This makes them ideal for outdoor use, whether you want them for safety and security or for decoration and fun. You might even like to combine a photocell sensor with solar-powered lights to reduce the amount of wiring you need to do for outdoor lighting.

Our photocell sensors are perfect for security lighting if you want to make sure that your home or business is safe at night. Be reassured that your lights will come on as soon as it starts to get dark. You can connect a photocell sensor to multiple lights, so you only need one to control all your outdoor lighting. Photocell sensors work well with lighting along your garden path or around the exterior of your home. Improve safety by lessening the chances of tripping in the dark and boost security by having lights on all night. Or you might just want to make your home look good in the evening, especially if you have lights set up for Christmas.

Sensor Lights and Bulbs

While some sensors need to be hooked up to existing lighting, others are built into lights and bulbs. For example, at Simple Lighting, we have LED bulbs with built-in PIR sensors. These save energy through both the use of LED and the motion sensor, which automatically turns lights on and off when detecting motion within 5m. We also sell sensors that allow lights and lamps to be converted into motion sensors using a standard bulb.

Light Sensor Mounting Options

Light sensors give you a few choices for how and where you can mount them. Some are designed to be mounted on walls, while others are designed for ceilings. You can also choose a sensor or sensor light with a flush or recessed design that fits neatly into a ceiling or other surface.

Monitor Your Home or Business with Light Sensors

Motion detection light sensors can also be used together with security cameras to help you monitor your home or business. With motion detection cameras and light sensors to switch lights on too, you can create a setup to keep an eye on your business premises or even watch over your pets or baby.

While some cameras have night vision, they're not always great for giving you a clear picture of what they record. Being able to set up your lights so that they come on when they detect motion means that you'll have better lighting to either record video or to monitor a live stream from your camera.

Choosing a Sensor for Your Lights

When you're choosing a sensor for your lights, Simple Lighting can help you purchase the right product. As a preferred destination for all things lighting, we have a range of options to offer you.

To choose the right light sensor for your purposes, first think about when and how you want to use your lights. Photocell sensors are the better choice if you want to have your outdoor lighting on all night to enhance the security of your home or business. However, you may prefer a PIR sensor for outdoor lighting if you want to save energy and only switch your lighting on when necessary.
