Features:

  • 【Motion Activated】 : Sensor function triggered by motion, you can use this small motion sensor switch to control lighting like Led strip lighting.
  • 【Light Sensor Adjustable】: This function allows you to use the motion sensor in different ambient condition, for example, you set the light sensor value to 20 lux, when the room ambient light value is above 20 lux, the light won’t turn on, but when room ambient light value is less than 20 lux, the sensor can turn light on when motion detected within sensing range.
  • 【Delay Time Adjustable- Please set this to its minimum value first then try to figure out your values for the Sensitivity and Light Sensor- this will save your time】: The delay time controls how long the light stays on once it gets triggered, during the delay time if motion detected, the delay time will reset and start a new delay time.
  • 【Sensitivity Adjustable】: The sensitivity controls how close you need to be to the sensor in order to activate it.
  • 【Wide Application】: You can use this sensor in different occasions like entryway lighting, cabinet lighting, gun safe lighting, pantry lighting, under the bed rails lighting.
Think about where you will place them so lights aren't coming on all the time.

These are great! The motion detector works flawlessly, and, if mounted in the right spot, they don't get false signals. We have a problem with a cat that has depth perception issues at night. She could not find her food at night, and would just whine until someone got up and turn on the light. I installed these inline with an LED light strip under the kitchen counters. Now the cat just walks in the kitchen and the lights come on so she can find her bowls. Also, when I walk in the kitchen in the dark, I can see because the sensor "sees" my feet and turns on the lights. I bought a couple more for my garage entry, and under the bed rails.

Works Great

Used this to motion-activate 12v lighting in my shed. Works flawlessly! Only complaint is that you have to open it up to adjust the sensitivity and time-delay settings and it's completely trial-and-error until you get it right. Very hard to do that once it's installed so get it how you want it first! Good news is at least no one will mess with it after that point.

Works Great!

Can be a little finicky to get set-up but it works just fine.

Used this handy little item for the LED lights I installed in my father's gun safe. Took a little adjustment to get the shut off delay working the way I wanted it too, but it's been great and he was very pleased. My only complaint with this sensor is that you have to pop the back plate off to adjust the settings and I was a little nervous about breaking the plastic tabs that hold the thing together. But other than that worked beautifully, will be purchasing more.

Works for my appication

I think it works well. I probably bought this for the wrong purpose. I'm using it to trigger a camera for home security. I used a voltage divider and I'm able to read the ~12.23v dropped down somewhere around 3-4V with an ADC in my case MCP3008 with 5V reference. I'm able to trigger the camera with a 300ms delay using Raspberry Pi's built in raspistill command and python os.system to call that command otherwise ran by exec() on command line. Anyway it works for me. The range was not as far as I would have liked, I'd say 20 feet was hoping like 30 but oh well. It was tricky to turn the potentiometers at the back for adjusting sensitivity. The light pot for example I don't even know how to use it in real time. I set the delay to lowest possible and then had it connected to a multimeter to see in real time where (how far) it would trigger, where it would shoot from 0.01V to over 12V. update: now that I'm actually using this thing, I'm not sure how reliable it is, it seems to randomly fire despite the low (0) analog readings and the room is empty (no motion/changes) so I'm not sure, will see if it's the light possibly but even that is constant (inside a house) at night currently. Will see about implementing a sort of debouncer (many fires means definite) versus only 1 is a fluke. I tuned it to work at a distance of just under 12 feet away. Sampling at a rate of 200ms, The peaks are above my 500 threshold according to my notes above. You can see some real time screen grabs as I was testing it. I'll update my code to treat it like a debouncer to only trigger when "true motion" is detected. Left is at rest, right is when I'm walking through Edit: My final update This is not reliable to me, I even tried the "debouncer" or sampling the live data (300ms) if in 4 sequential measurements two were what I was looking for, fire the camera. Even in a dead still room, and nothing is moving (live alone) and no fluctuations that I'm aware of. The sensor randomly spikes sometimes it's once in say 20 measurements, then it'll be 3 almost in a row (which trips my debouncer) It was cool to work with but not reliable for motion sensing to trigger a camera (not take pictures when nothing is happening). Still give it a decent score maybe it's me. Doesn't help the calibrating of this thing is not easy/immediate. I did want to add I'm using a wireless raspberry pi 3 and looking around it seems that it's possible for the wifi to trigger it. So I'm going to try and move the PIR sensor away from the PI. It's also near a router maybe that is part of the problem. Wow, moved it away from the router by at least 10 feet and holy cow, no false positives at all. It's not the Pi's wireless, that hasn't changed (distance between pi and PIR sensor) just that this setup was near a router interesting. Cool! Actually I was able to move it even closer as the place I had it before was an ideal position regarding camera fov and sensor distance from the door.

A perfect combination for lighting my gun safe.

These three products work perfectly together so that when I open my gun safe, the lights come on: Sensky BS010l Dc12v to 24v Mini Pir Motion Sensor Switch,occupancy Sensor Switch LE Power Adapter, Transformers, Power Supply For LED Strip, Output 12V DC, 3A Max, 36 Watt Max, UL Listed LE 16.4ft LED Flexible Light Strip, 300 Units SMD 2835 LEDs, 12V DC Non-waterproof, Light Strips, LED ribbon, DIY Christmas Holiday Home Kitchen Car Bar Indoor Party Decoration (Daylight White)

Works well for LED strip light in office cabinet

I am using the BS010l as a motion switch to trigger an LED strip in a metal storage cabinet upon opening. SETUP: It plugged easily into the existing male/female jacks of the system I was using and I found setting the timers and sensitivity to be very easy by following the instructions clearly laid out on the package the sensor came in. Total setup took less than 2 minutes. It seems very user friendly, pretty plug and play. INITIAL IMPRESSIONS: I am very satisfied so far, it triggers the light strip as soon as the cabinet opens and the sensor has line of sight to a body generated IR source (I usually see the lights flick on as they're triggered by my hand as I reach to swing the cabinet open). The light stays on for 8.5 minutes without being triggered again (I timed it several times out of curiosity) and I find its sensitive enough to remain triggered when I leave the cabinet open and am moving about the room anywhere within line of sight of the sensor. DOES IT WORK: it works well! It's very handy and I think it's worth it's cost as long as it continues functioning as it is now. It will be triggered several times a day, every day. If I encounter any problems I will update this review. As of now, I recommend this sensor and I may even pick up another one to rig a similar LED system in a walk in closet. PROS: easy to install, easy to setup, understandable directions included, acceptable build quality, small size, decent looking, works well. CONS: none as of now. Will update if necessary.

Been good for me

I've only had the sensor installed for a couple days now, but so far I am very happy with it. Once I got it adjusted to the setting I wanted it's been great. I'm using it inside of a safe with LED strips so it turns on when the door is open, then shuts off in a minute or so. Couple of pieces of advice would be to not adjust the sensitivity to minimum value, the switch won't detect any movement, and also do not adjust the delay time to minimum value or light will keep turning on and off all the time when the switch senses motion.

Works great

I purchased this to use with an undercounter light kit. The sensor works great and is very sensitive. The light kit required a set of adapters since the plugs are different sizes. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B008A7565O/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Power in, power out

After fiddling with this sensor, it works great. Be sure to read the instructions and make your adjustments as needed and you will be satisfied with this. Make sure your input power power source and the output to you lights are correct. If you do this backwards, the lights will stay on and will not shut off. It is possibe to do this, that is what I did first before realizing it was wrong.
