I’m replacing the light at my front door, and I dont seem to be able to find what I want.
My current light is solar powered, light and motion sensitive so it only comes on at night and dims when there is no movement. However during winter there isn’t enough light during the day to charge it so that it lasts longer than a couple of hours.
I would like to replace it with a mains powered one, but keeping the only on at night, and dims when there is no movement so that it illuminates the house number. Everything I see appears to only have one or the other (unless they actually have both but the listing details are terrible), does anyone know the terminology I need to use?
I know what you mean and have an old light which does that, which was on the house when I moved in.
After frustratingly searching, I believe the terms you’re looking for are dual light level PIR, hi-lo PIR, high low PIR.
Here’s a product that has the feature although it may not be cosmetically to your taste https://www.universal-lighting.co.uk/products/dual-light-level-led-outdoor-pir-wall-half-lantern-white/ Here’s another https://www.universal-lighting.co.uk/products/dual-light-level-led-dusk-dawn-white-outdoor-pir-wall-light-wide/
No affiliation to them just they came up when searching and had two products that matched. Good luck with your hunt, they are out there!
