Struggling here. Yet again, I know what I want, but either no one has it or I can't find it.
Basic requirements
Sensor
IP rated to atleast 44 but will be flexible pending on other parts.
It's going outside next to the front door under a porch roof, so nothing to ridculously big, it will be wall mounted.
Rough ideas of what I like

This is the style I'm set on but can be flexible, the circular up and down appeals to me.
To detail my ideal product with pickyness
Sensor (motion)
Sensor (day and night)
Energy Efficient
Solar or wired, preferably wired.
Black finish
Weatherproof (IP 44?)
Height Max 25cm
Width Max 10cm (flexible here)
Light source from bottom (top and bottom is possible but it will be roughly 10-20cm away from the porch roof.
The light source doesn't need to be overly powerful infact I'd prefer something that wasn't, it's more a slight light source than a security deterrent.
I really like this

but in a black finish, which oddly exists but gets very mixed reviews, particularly regarding it's sensor.
If anyone can find anything that fills these requirements, I'd be eternally grateful.
