Steinel Outdoor Wall Light L 15 S black- 180° Motion Sensor, 10 m Reach,max. 60 W, Classic Design, for Entrance and Fronts

Easy to install if wiring already there light quality great detection great value for money good looks great

The light is expensive but it is well worth it, looks good and does the job. I have had several security lights in the £30 bracket which have not lasted much more than a year, the sensors became faulty. This one you can alter the angle of the sensor thus reducing the area required, also the lux setting covers a greater scope and set on the highest setting you can adjust the lamp during daytime, then alter the lux accordingly. It is all plastic moulded very light in weight and will not rot or flake, very well sealed the best I have seen for design. I have only had it a few months but the price may be on the quality of the sensor I hope. ( does not come on and off when it is windy, which is a good thing, can be adjusted by lowering the sensor slightly if you get this problem).

The light functions as you'd expect. The motion sensor is excellent, you can adjust the settings however you wish to make it suitable to your needs. You can add stick on blockers to adjust the angle. By default it's 180 degrees and can pick up motion from a fair distance away. The plastic is a nice satin finish plastic that isn't flimsy and feels like it'll last even though it's subjected to the elements.Assembling it was very easy, wiring it was a doddle and it's been working really nicely for a few months now. The only thing to note is that the light output is slightly limited and therefore not as bright as the spotlights are.

I just put one of these up and I was impressed with it. I bought this for the good sensor - 180 degrees (a must for where this one is located), long range, and you can adjust the angle. There are 2 rotary dials for the LUX and timer settings. A lot of the competition can't do all these this.Yes it's plastic, but it is not _cheap_ plastic. It's strong, looks good and should keep it's colour and not corrode. The glass has a bezel which adds a touch of quality too. The lid is held on with 2 screws from the top so time will tell if these corrode and are difficult to remove when the bulb needs changing. I guess it might be a good idea to put a spot of paint / oil / Vaseline on the screw heads to prevent this, but I didn't!Wiring is straightforward (live to the black wire, neutral to the centre connector, nothing to the top one). It doesn't have the easy clip connector blocks which would have been a bonus but it was okay.It comes with a 3 year guarantee but judging by the quality of the unit I don't think I'll need it. Cheaper ones will no doubt fail in that time. Buy cheap, buy twice...

The front door of my bungalow is along the sid so I needed a light fitting with a 180 degree PIR motion detector and this is the only one I could find. It works fine and looks good although time will tell how UV affects the white colour.The only thing to be aware of is the wiring. It is not clear but the black wire is "Live" although it is marked "Life or Phase", neutral is in the middle and there is no earth as it is polycarbonate with the third connector only being used to connect two wires from the lamp & sensor.

Bought to replace a weathered and deteriorated lamp of similar design. This Steinel unit is a far superior lamp to the cheaper one that it replaced being of sturdier construction and boasting much better quality materials. Definitely not the cheapest option out there but a very high quality lamp that should outlast its predecessor.

The lights themselves are ok, they feel cheap because they are plastic, but look good when put up. My issue is the PIR Sensors, the timer is supposed to be 8 seconds to 35 minutes, but if you turn the setting screw fully to the 35 minute mark the lights never go off. I have these lights in a sheltered position and even with the PIR,S pointing almost to the ground I still get un commanded triggering of the lights, god knows what its doing when I am not watching it. I was led to believe Steinel was a quality brand, not so sure now. I do not recommend these lights, if any improvements I will alter my feedback

This is my third lantern having purchased the first two some 5 years ago. I am pleased to report the other two still look almost new. The lanterns are made of a very high grade plastic which might be off putting to some but does not detract from the look or operation. My only criticism, and reason for four not five stars is the lid is secured by two small soft metal screws which over time do become corroded and I recently had to drill them out when the cross head just mangled whilst attempting to remove them. I’ve replaced them with a larger diameter which should be strong enough to not succumb to being removed in future. Good, but not great, German engineering
