PIR Ceiling Mount Occupancy Sensor, 120-277V, 1000W, 570SF Field-of-View, ODC0S-I1W, White

I was going to give it a 1 star because it kept on turning on by itself in bathroom. Then I found out it is NOT made for small rooms ilke a bathroom or closet. So I moved it to my 2 car indoor garage and it works AWESOME!!!!!

This product is an exact replacement for the IR motion sensor I installed in my home in 2003. I purchased original Leviton units from local electrical supplier. Seems like 2016 they started to fail. When I rebuilt my 200+ year old home I made electrical provisions to control the lighting in each room, and or area. Worked great. I'm gradually replacing, and after six months of use, [gradually replacing them] so far so good. The green LED behind the bezel seems brighter [indicates motion detected]. One setting for daylight [I don't use-turned down to disable], and the time delay takes a little messing around till you get it where you want it. So don't put the ladder away right away. Be patient, once you have it dailed in where you want it, it has stayed consistent. Also remember, it's IR sensor, so radical temperature variation will initiate sensor. I have ductwork that will blow heat/ cool, so rarely that initiates. The physical attributes resemble a smoke detector in the ceiling. Be aware also if using this with a 1G old work box the sensor does not completely cover. When we sheetrocked covered most of the opening then cut out min opening. Don't know what Leviton expected electrician to use for box to make it finish nicely. Overall really reliable.

This sensor costs a bit more than some of the others, but well worth the money. I have tried a couple of cheaper ones before this, and they either turned on the lights when I didn't want them to, or just the opposite. This model has an adjustment for the ambient light conditions to allow it to activate the lights. It also has an adjustment for how long to keep the lights on after the last motion was detected. Leviton is a good company that makes good products. A strong word of caution. If you buy one of these, make sure you get the model that is closest to the size of the area you want motion detection in or you may well have problems. I would highly recommend these.

Intro: I have a flat roof, i.e., no attic. My house also has a low voltage lighting system that the well-heeled had installed in their homes in the 1950's--the light switches control relays in each ceiling box, which toggle on/off 110 V AC to the light fixtures. the system shorted out recently, coincident with roof replacement. The short's location is a mystery and most light switches do not work. 3 different fixes include: 1. rip up the roof ($15-20,000) and find the short or rewire the house (cost unknown)--also leaving the house vulnerable to rain between the tear out and re-roofing. 2. install wireless switches and receivers costing at least $140 per room 3. install wireless motion sensors costing from $22 to $85 per room. I installed this sensor in my kitchen. Instructions: easy to follow (I have some DIY experience) Adjustments to the sensor: not at all difficult. The convenience is phenomenal--I no longer have to find the light switches when I enter a room nor do I struggle to flick them off as I exit. Lights turn on as the sensor "sees" me getting near and turn off after a user-set interval when the sensors detect no further motion. This sensor also works with fluorescent lights (tubes or compact), while the $22 Heath/Zenith from a big box Home improvement store does not. This sensor also has a photocell that keeps it from triggering the lights when other sources of light keep you out of the dark. Amazon does sell a model for about $40-45 that has no photocell and triggers with motion irrespective of ambient light. July 6, 2018 update: three units of five malfunctioning, turning on/off on their own. One star downgrade--it doesn't work forever.

Easy to remove and replace. Good price...>>BUY HERE<<

We just had our entire house remodeled, including a complete rewiring of the house, and had the electrician install 3 of these sensors in 3 closets where wall switches were difficult to position - we thought these sensors would be the perfect solution for those closets. The first set of (incandescent/halogen) light bulbs (approx. 86 watts per fixture) burned out in less than a month from all of the switching on and off they did--all 3 closets! We replaced the bulbs and had the time on adjusted to 2 minutes (when there is no perceived activity) and moved into the house. We have been there just a week and these sensors will trigger on God-only-knows-what and come on day and night when no one is anywhere near the closets! Sometimes, we can pinpoint that a ceiling fan or light nearby was switched on (which shouldn't trigger the light in the closed closet to come on, yet it seems to) or the central A/C cut off, but many times, you can hear the click a room or two away, go look at the bottom edge of the door, and sure enough, the light is on. Our electrician doesn't know what is going on. We've searched on the web a bit, but sautering across parts of an electronic gizmo to possibly stop what may be weird power fluctuations is way beyond our paygrade. We cannot dis-recommend this product enough and are stuck at what to do now that the walls are finished and we would have to pay to have those fixtures rewired to operate from a wall switch instead. Not to mention, we'd have to manage to find even poor locations for the wall switches (they were each a bare bulb pull-chain light before, no longer code compliant). Save yourself the grief, the light bulbs, and the wasted electrician's fees and stay away from these things. It gets a 1 star because it does come on when you enter the closet. Of course, it would also go off when you were in the closet if you didn't move frequently enough (when the time was set to less than 2 minutes).

I just installed two of these at the request of the owner of a new restaurant. One in the men's washroom and one in the women's washroom. Each is switching a 0.5 ampere fan motor(60 watts) and 100 watts of LED lighting. I cranked the sensitivity to the max and adjusted the on-time to approximately 15 minutes or so. So far they are working perfectly. It has been 6 weeks and no sign of fault. Everybody says they work great. The response time to trigger is a hair to slow but totally fine. As a backup plan, if these fail, I installed 24 volt lines to install the low voltage version with solidstate relays. Being a commercial space, I can not afford to have these fail. I did not warranty them, nor the fans because anything with a motor or sensitive electronics is deemed to fail at some point in time. What I did do is give the client a back-up plan. Anywho, these things are working great.

This is the slickest auto light switch around. Used it for our basement stairs/hall. Neve again need to worry about having to switch on a light when your hands are full. Real nice safety feature.

Very happy with this product, works perfectly in my 400-500 sq foot garage

Perfect for our home use in the garage. Wife doesn't need to find the light switch while holding our baby, and carrying whatever else. Pretty simple to wire up as well (if you have some electrical knowledge/experience). Thinking about buying another one for the laundry room too.

Works great. Exactly what I needed.
