Outdoor light

esforum

Apologies if this isnt the best section.

ok so this is it:
summer house originally had an outdoor light that was controlled by an inside switch

mother wanted a sensor light put in so my father switched them and obviously now we have to leave the light switch on 24/7 for the sensor to work

But its a pain in the arse, it turns off after a max of 30 second and wont come straight back on for another 30 and you have to do the magic light dance for it even then.

Simplest way to have both lights? Can I run a normal light off the sensor one with a switch on it or split the lines before and have both lights running off the indoor swicth? Not perfect but livable I think or is there a better way?

Click the switch on twice and see if the light stays on.

There's usually a little timer switch on the fitting so as you can set how long you want it to come on for. As said you can also get it to stay on.
If you still have the brochure have a read or look the make up online where you'll also find the brochure.
