Three way motion sensor switch

If the motion sensor switch is a 3 way switch as well I see no problem with it.

I want to install this in a corridor that has a L shape. It would be place on a 45 degree wall in the corner. The manual light switch would be place at one end.

I want to know how this product performs in that kind of setup.

I have has a setup like that. You wire the second (manual) switch to bypass the motion sensor switch and turn the light on. Turning this OFF will start the timer. That is, that manual switch needs to be MOMENTARY (leaving it on would force the light to stay on and the motion detector couldn't do anything about it). You should be able to get a momentary pushbutton switch that fits on a wall plate.

Your motion detector could be benefiting from the heat of the bulb.

That's what I have in my garage. It was a 3-way switch with one in the garage and the other inside. I replaced the one in the garage with a motion detector and used the other traveler as a way to bypass it from inside.

See also my other reply in this thread.

BTW, It doesn't get colder than about 40F in this garage, because of a heater I put in to keep plants from freezing.

Thanks for the answer. So from what I understand the manual switch simply overrides the motion detector switch.

Yes.

I don't know if all motion detectors will do this, but on mine the manual switch would cause the motion detector to turn on and start the timer.

Unwanted alteration of sig being ignored.

If this was supposed to be a correction or addition, you could have told me that.

(sorry for the previous omission)

It's A Cooper Wiring Devices model 6109.

This model has 3 wires, but the third wire is ground (which doesn't have to be connected).

BTW, Something I'm looking for is one like this with a NEUTRAL wire.

Are you sure about that?

Yes. I actually had 2 identical devices, one of which hasn't been installed. I was looking at it while writing that response. Most of the wiring in my house is old enough not to have ground. There would have been no place to connect that green wire.
