ADD A MOTION SENSOR AND IT CHANGES YOUR THINKING ENTIRELY, NO MORE LIGHT SWITCH
WORKS GREAT, COUPLED IT WITH 3 -8' LED LIGHTS AND NO MORE FLOURSCENT BULBS TO DEAL WITH. MY CELLAR GETS TO 57 DEGREES AND THESE START UP INSTANTLY UNLIKE THE FLOURSCENT ONES. ALSO THEY ARE SO BRIGHT .SENSITIVITY WORKS GREAT.

Works great
Adds a lot of convenience of walking into a dark room or passing through a hall way without having to flip on a light switch.

Works great. But I have a wish list.
The movement sensor has just the right sensitivity for my purposes. We live in Florida and bugs are a real problem. I stacked two fans and aimed them to blow perpendicularly to the entrance door we use the most. So when one approaches the door to go back inside, the fans come on and blow away any bugs hanging around the door. This prevents them from getting inside when the door is opened.Have two things I wish were features. 1) I wish there was an on/off switch on the unit. Early in the morning it is sometimes cold enough that the fan is not needed because the bugs are not active. I have the unit on a power strip that I can easily turn off but then nothing else plugged into it works. 2) The runtime feature has various setting; 4sec, 1min etc. for my purposes I'd like maybe a 15 sec and/or a 30 sec option too.The text on the packaging is a bit weird. It keeps mentioning a light as if the only use for this is to activate a light. I actually thought there was a little "night light" that would come on when the unit was activated. Not the case at all. Silly me.Would I buy it again? YES.

No warranty coverage? Only a 30 day return window?
I bought 2 of these on separate orders, one of them has stopped working after 2 months of light use for a 30 watt led light in a closet.When I tried to get some warranty information from Amazon, there is no way to do that. All I get is that the return window closed already and some suggestions on how to troubleshoot. The device just keeps clicking on and off rapidly.There is no 'contact seller 'optionIt's $20 item, please offer at least a reply, there should be a warranty of some sort for failure after 2 monthsNow I'm waiting for the other one to have the same issues.

Good for pantry light
Years ago the handyman installed a double pole outlet in the bottom of our pantry. One pole has a regular outlet and the other space holds a motion detector that activates the bottom plug. The motion detector failed. I bought this as a work around until such time as we can get the electrician in for a list of projects. I installed it into the upper plug and the rope LED lighting into it and it works great. I set it to stay on 1 minute and it detects automatically when I open the pantry door. There are multiple time settings from which you can choose. The only modification I had to make was adding a plug adapter since the top of this detector hit the wood brace for the shelf above and without the adapter would not push into the plug all the way. I happened to have one on hand so no real inconvenience.

WORKS GOOD FOR WHAT IT DOES...
The motion detection is good. I installed mine in a closet. One thing to keep in mind (that disappointed me) is: The motion detection is linial not radial in the Height direction. That is: if you install it on a standard receptacle (about 12" off of the floor), it is going to detect movement that crosses the sensor at 12" off of the ground.Example: I have mine installed in my closet at 15" high. When I move my hands into the closet, it will not trip. I have to walk into my non-walk-in closet to trip the sensor and light my light. Or I have to kick my leg to sweep the sensor area. It's not a deal breaker but I would have preferred if it tripped along the vertical axis. I still recommend this, just know what you are getting. It installs very easily (just plug it in) and it looks good.

Perfect way to add a Motion detection to plug in lights!
I have been using this product for months now and it has been perfect for turning on lights as I come into my garage workspace. I was able to add this to a shop light so it turns on when I enter, when I just need to get an item and Im not there for a long time. The timer selection is good, so I could select it to keep lights on for 5 minutes, enough time for me to get in and out and see my way.
