LED Outdoor Floodlight

yaz2010

Hi all,

I am after a floodlight to be put on the back off the house facing the garden.

Anyone has got any recommendations?

The one which I have now is PIR but does not have day/night option so it switches on even during the day.

I was looking at LED option but cant seem to find anything good?

Any help would be much appreciated.

It has two timers, one for the time duration and other for sensitivity. No option for day night. It is quite old and I have a feeling that it is consuming lot of electricity.

Personally I wouldn't bother looking at LED floodlights, I did, and frankly they just aren't up to the job. If your used to a 500w flood then a LED will be like a candle.

If you need instant, large amounts of light that isn't a stark white you can't beat the good old fashioned filament bulb.

There's no option for day/night because they are designed to only come on at night. It sounds as though it's developed a fault.

30W LED flood light c/w pir is what you want - I have recently got rid of my 70W metal halide floodlight and installed one of these, cant fault it

We changed all our 400w floodlights for LED 50W PIR floodlights and it is now much brighter and better. Would def recommend and wish we had changed them all years ago.
