Hi,
I have had two Enlight EN-PFL200 (??) 150W "security" lights. Both lasted less than a year. I think that the water that got into the sensor has caused the problem. Seems a bit of crappy design to me. I'm going to test the light (somehow). I'm thinking I will stick a 13A plug on the wire and plug into the mains and check a few voltages just to confirm it is dead.
Has anyone a recommendation of a 150W PIR light that has given reliable service for more than 3 years? The purpose of the light is to provide reassurance for the neighbours and to give the message to intruders "we know you are there" - although a determined intruder would just smash the light. Maybe I should mount it higher .... Is there a maximum distance from the PIR to the "motion" that needs to be adhered to?
The light is situated on a wall overlooking a driveway with no residential windows being affected when it lights up - only two bathrooms and an office. And 150W isn't exactly lighting Wembley stadium - so I'm not being anti-social putting this thing up.
Thanks
Clive
